Kashgar Old City
Parim aeg külastamiseks
Visit in the morning between 9 AM and noon when the light is soft for photos and the lanes are quiet before tour groups arrive. Spring and autumn offer the most comfortable temperatures for all-day wandering.

Teave
Kiired faktid: Umbes 2000 aastat pidevat asustust on muutnud selle üheks vanimaks säilinud linnakeskuseks Siiditeel, mõned perekonnad jälgivad oma kodusid üle tosina põlvkonna. Üle 100 000 elaniku elab ja töötab endiselt selle labürindilistes tänavates, andes sellele elava energia, mille enamik vanalinnu on juba ammu kaotanud.
Esiletõstmised: Iga ukseava räägib siin lugu, üle 400 käsitsi nikerdatud puidust väravaga seisavad perekonna päranditena, iga muster peidab endas kaitse ja õitsengu sümboleid. Tõeline üllatus on katused, kus elanikud kasvatavad arbuuse, viinamarju ja viigimarju kõrgel tänavate kohal, luues salajase aialinna, mis tänavatasandilt nähtamatu on.
Sisekujunduse nõuanded
- Wear comfortable shoes with good grip, the stone lanes are uneven and some streets have steep stairs.
- Climb onto one of the watchtower platforms around sunset for a panoramic view of the sea of flat rooftops with satellite dishes and chimneys.
- Skip the main square and head into the residential alleys east of Id Kah Mosque to find quiet courtyards where locals will invite you in for tea.
- Learn a few words of Uyghur like 'salam' (hello) and 'raxmat' (thank you), residents genuinely appreciate the effort.
