Step into the Ancient City of Kashgar - A Living Museum of Millennia-Old Silk Road Culture

Kashgar Ancient City is like a textbook of Central Asian charm spanning thousands of years! Every brick and tile here tells a story of the Silk Road, and you'll find yourself completely immersed in this living ancient city🏰 ✨Must-Visit Spots: Id Kah Mosque - Xinjiang's largest mosque with classic Islamic architecture, its golden dome glitters in the sunlight (remember to dress according to local customs)🕌 Century-Old Tea House - Sip Uyghur herbal tea with baked buns while watching the city's daily life unfold - this is authentic Xinjiang slow living☕ Ostangboyi Old Street - A hub for artisans selling copperware, wood carvings, pottery... each handicraft carries the warmth of its maker (perfect for shopping)🛍️ Ancient City Watchtower - Climb up for panoramic views where the earth-toned buildings frame distant snow-capped mountains (postcard-perfect shots guaranteed)🏔️ 🍴Foodie Must-Tries: Kayser Restaurant: Perfectly crispy-outside, tender-inside roasted lamb with special cumin seasoning! (Address: Konadairwaza Road, West District) Ancient Family Restaurant: Legendary pilaf spot with perfectly separated rice grains and tender lamb (Address: 212 Ostangboyi Road) Alizat Pilaf: Locals' favorite that sells out before 1pm (Address: 58 Port Road) 🔖Pro Tips: 1. The maze-like alleys can be confusing - stick to main paths or use the "Travel Xinjiang" app for navigation 2. Don't miss the 10:30am daily opening ceremony with captivating song-and-dance performances 3. Bargain when shopping - start at about one-third of the asking price 4. Bring a light jacket even in summer for the significant day-night temperature difference Night market is a must! Roasted pigeon, stew in jars, handmade ice cream... the aromatic street offers the ultimate Xinjiang food collection🍢
