In the ancient world a system of trade roads was flourished across the vast continent of Asia and which connected China to the frontiers of Roman Empire. This system of roads was later called the Silk Road. After the advent of Islam, significant sections of this road became parts of Islamic world and Muslims started trading through it. Geographically speaking, we can divide three main sections of this system of roads: southern, middle and northern parts. An important part of the northern road was passing from Jungharia. This region was a neighbor of Islamic territory in central Asia, it had a minority of Muslims and it has been known less than the other parts of central Asia for Iranian and Arabic academies. These points added to the importance of the northern road as a part of the Silk Road and its role in the trade of Asia and Islamic world all encouraged us to do this research. This article, relying on existing historical sources and what researches carried out in the field of historical geography of the Islamic world and central Asia, tries to study the historical geography of Jungharia and its trade way’s relationships with the Islamic world.
