Exploring Southern Xinjiang:How to spend transparently with carpool small groups and enjoy a pure journey
Detailed introduction to Southern Xinjiang tourism routes and destinations
Southern Xinjiang, this land full of mystery, attracts countless tourists with its vast deserts, magnificent snow mountains, ancient villages, and rich ethnic cultures. Here there are both nature’s uncanny workmanship and profound cultural and historical accumulation.
Kashgar Old City:As the core city of Southern Xinjiang, Kashgar Old City is an excellent place to experience the customs of various ethnic groups. The architecture here retains the traditional style of the various ethnic groups, with earth-yellow walls and exquisite wooden carved doors and windows, as if taking people back to ancient times. Strolling through the narrow alleys, you can see local residents sitting leisurely at their doors chatting, and children laughing and playing in the alleys. There are also many specialty shops in the old city, selling various handicrafts, dried fruits, and specialty foods.
Pamir Plateau: This is the edge of the high plateau, with stunning natural scenery. Snow mountains such as Muztagh Ata and Kongur Peak stand majestically, contrasting beautifully with the blue sky and white clouds. Karakul Lake is like a sapphire set upon the plateau, with crystal-clear water that presents different colors as the light changes. Traveling along the China-Pakistan Friendship Highway, you can also enjoy magnificent canyon scenery and vast grasslands.
Taklamakan Desert: As China’s largest desert, the Taklamakan Desert is full of mystery and challenge. Here, you can experience exciting desert off-roading and feel the thrill of the wind whistling past your ears; you can also ride a camel through the desert and admire the rolling sand dunes and beautiful sunsets. At night, lying in the desert and looking up at the starry sky, the stars seem within reach.
Kizil Thousand Buddha Caves: This is China’s earliest-excavated and westernmost large-scale cave complex, known as an ‘art treasure house.’ The caves preserve a large number of murals and sculptures. These artworks reflect the social life, folk culture, and artistic style of the time and have extremely high historical and artistic value.
