Gizi Map coverage of the Silk Route, available in either a geographical or a political edition, extends from eastern Turkey and Syria, across the countries of Central Asia, to western China and south to the Arabian Sea.

All place names are transliterated, with alternative versions provided where necessary, particularly in the border areas.
Detailed topographic information includes names of mountain ranges, deserts and other geographical features, numerous spot heights and peak names, swamps and salt flats, glaciers, etc. National parks, world heritage sites and other historical monuments are highlighted. On each map the Silk Route and its variants are clearly marked.
