Kashgar Old City (Xinjiang)

#chinatravel Kashgar’s Old City is a living piece of Silk Road history, where Uyghur culture flourishes amidst winding alleys, mud-brick homes, and bustling bazaars. The Id Kah Mosque and Sunday Market are iconic stops, but the real magic is in simply wandering—watching craftsmen make knives, bakers prepare naan, and families chat over tea. It feels worlds apart from eastern China, offering a completely different cultural experience. Visiting Kashgar is like stepping into a vibrant desert crossroads.
