I'm not quite satisfied with the existing Silk Road Wonder graphics. It's hard to portray a wonder with camel caravan. Also, it looks confusingly like a unit in the menu. The wonder city and splash graphics also leaves a lot to be desired. It doesn't mix well with the rest of the game imo. I think using a caravanserai building to depict the Silk Road makes sense. In order for caravans to travel safely across the Eurasian continent, much infrastructure is required. Roads and caravanserais needed to be built across Eurasia. The Mongol Empire contributed much to improving that. During Pax Mongolica, one could travel safely on land with great wealth from Anatolia to Korea.

Graphics are taken from https://mirye.net/meshbox-design/product/caravanserai. The splash meshes very well with Civ3 art style and doesn't feel out of place.
