Northeastern Asian Silk Road is an important part of the ancient Silk Road. On basis of consulting historical documents and literatures,we conducted a detailed examination and excavation on historical transitions and routes of Northeastern Asian Silk Road from ancient times to Qing Dynasty. The routes and historical backgrounds of this ancient Silk Road are more clearly displayed. The earliest history of Northeastern Asian Silk Road can be deduced to Yu Shun periods and exact written records started in Zhou Dynasty.

This article retrospects the history of tussah industry in northeastern regions of China by showing its transmission and prosperity along the Northeastern Asian Silk Road. Besides,in virtue of the"One Belt One Road"national strategy,it is put forward to rely on scientific and technological innovation for future sustainable development of tussah industry through diversified development and application of laborsaving and mechanized production technology.
