The Kitan roads I have been over, for the most part, myself ; they are simply the high-roads from Peking through the various passes of the Great Wall, and to this day the caravans of laden camels or mules, the droves of horses, the herds and flocks driven in for sale may be seen coming through in the winter season exactly as they came 2,000 years ago. en 1968 Hae-jong Chun Sino-Korean Tributary Relations in the Ch’ing Period w:John King Fairbank The Chinese World Order: Traditional China's Foreign Relations https://archive.org/details/chineseworldorde0000john/ Cambridge, Mass. w:Harvard University Press 68-14255 322527 97 https://archive.org/details/chineseworldorde0000john/page/97/ Main places on the route were, with minor changes during the Ch’ing: Seoul, P’yŏngyang (Chinese, P’ing-jang), Ŭiju (I-chou), the Yalu River, Feng-huang ch’eng, Lien-shan kuan, Liao-tung, Shen-yang, Kuang-ning, Sha-ho, Shan-hai kuan, T’ung-chou, and Peking. en References
