What are the prepositions that can used along the phrase, the Silk Road?
The Silk Road [ by / through ] which Marco Polo brought some oriental paintings to his hometown was the major route to the Central Asia in those days.
I understand you can use on or along in front of the word which. But my question is if you can use by or through as well. Which one is correct, by or through, or both? Could you help me clarify it? Thank you always.

I don't think you bring something "through" a road. "by" is possible, but the most obvious choice is "along".
