in the chapter the silk road

Answer 1

Answer:

Exotic places are those which are seemingly exciting and unusual. At times, they are connected to foreign countries. We have read about numerous exciting places in the legends i.e. in the ancient stories which take us into the ancient times. Often the accounts and descriptions of such places.  may be exaggerated or heightened not due to a desire to deceive, but due to the writer’s own heightened emotional response. If we visit these places, the reality may be quite different. We should not forget that while writing, the writer often dives into a deep world of fantasy and imagination. So, at times, the writer might accentuate a place. He never does this to mislead his readers, it is done out of writer’s feelings and emotions.
