Kashgar, Xinjiang

A place where you stay with time


time is slow here

sunset at ten thirty in the evening

Got a gift of nature

can finally stop

Quietly wait for the soul to catch up


Walking into the ancient city, it seems that you have traveled back to the ancient Western Regions

Find a rooftop overlooking the old town

Ancient dwellings that have gone through vicissitudes

flying flocks of birds

Innocent children playing around

Sit in a century-old teahouse and listen to music

Learn dance with Uighur grandpa

Everything

It will make you feel a China that you have never seen before


Rent a car out of town

Drive to Oytak Glacier Park

The natural picture scroll of southern Xinjiang unfolds slowly in front of you

Walk through the quiet and majestic snow-capped mountains

Tianxian smashed the white clouds after being drunk

Cut Qingqiong into Wuhua

Accumulated thousands of piles of beautiful jade

Oytak


On the other side of the mountain, another spring

The apricot blossoms all over the mountains and plains have turned into a romantic sea

The flock of sheep and apricot blossoms are written into a unique prose poem in spring

Walking in the bright spring light of dark fragrance and sparse shadow

Feel the stunning beauty that cannot be seen in the city


On the way back to the city, we will pass by the Red Valley

It's like landing on some unknown planet

jagged rock

Red Yardang Landform

Dimorphic longhorn goat

are telling you

Kashgar is amazing, must do it again

If you ask me how many times to fully appreciate

then i can only answer you

For him, thousands of times


The practical strategy is written here, everyone is welcome to use it for reference


【Kashgar Ancient City】

Free, must-see attractions, summed up the best photo spots in the ancient city, shared with the little sisters who love to take pictures, it is recommended to stay for 2-3 days, the time is too short to be enjoyable


1⃣️Jiulongquan Homestay

You can see the panoramic view of the old city. This seat is indeed my favorite. It’s 50 for one person to take pictures, and 300 for renting clothes. The boss is fierce, but the staff is very friendly.


2⃣️ Master Bayi's house

Tickets are 30, I think the most worthwhile place ~ because there are few people, you can go to shoot for an hour or two to change different sets, and it’s fun to shoot with your girlfriends


3⃣️Century-old teahouse

4⃣️ Some small alleys

This is just a casual walk, there are very interesting alleys everywhere, and there are Uighur children, very friendly, you can take pictures with them

5⃣️Flower Pot Bazaar

Discuss with the boss near the gate of the ancient city of Kashgar (that is, the gate that opens and has performances), and some will be photographed ~ very friendly


【Looking at apricot blossom】

In the middle of March, the mountains and plains began to spread. Many herdsmen have them. Of course, there are also many people who turn around and drive to the ancient village of Tasha. It is worthwhile. If you have enough time, go there.

【Oytak Glacier Park】

The snow-capped mountains are very, very beautiful. You can take a tour bus and walk through the snow-capped mountains. Tickets are 60. It takes about 3 hours to drive from Kashgar City.

【Red Valley】

On the way to Oytak Glacier Park, you can stop by. My friends and I agree that it is very cool, a bit like Antelope Valley (the landform does not feel like it, don’t bar it)
