A City Without Traffic Lights

Have you ever seen a city without traffic lights? Tekes County, Xinjiang, is the world's largest and most well-preserved Bagua City. With the city center as the axis, it radiates outward according to the orientation of the Taiji Bagua, forming eight main streets. The radiation range is divided into four rings, forming a vivid layout of the Sixty-Four Hexagrams. Here, all roads lead to Rome and all streets are connected! Traffic lights become redundant here, but there will still be small mobile traffic lights during holidays.
