Turpan's Grandpa's antique shop, step into the world of One Thousand and One Nights in a second!

Traveling from Hami to Urumqi, due to the sudden addition of the Hami Sea Route, I stayed an extra night in Turpan. The next day, the temperature in Turpan soared to 45 degrees, so I just went to visit the famous grandpa's antique shop. I didn't dare to visit Turpan's Grape Valley, Karez Wells, Flaming Mountains, or Jiaohe Ruins, fearing I'd get sun-dried. It is said that this is the private residence where the grandpa has lived for over 40 years, and the tens of thousands of items inside and outside the house are all his collections from wandering the streets. Many are everyday items of local residents of Turpan, with a strong sense of movie scenes. So many old items, especially the huge teapot at the entrance, it's just like a scene from Aladdin's magic lamp! The yard and every corner of the house are filled with all kinds of old items, such as old cameras, oil lamps, old-fashioned desk clocks, flower wooden boxes, sewing machines, record players... The seemingly random arrangement is full of a wonderful sense of beauty! It's like being in the world of One Thousand and One Nights. It's just that the area around the antique shop has been demolished. It seems from other people's notes that it has been said to be demolished for 20 years, but it has not been demolished yet. Friends who want to visit should hurry! Grandpa's Antique Shop Ticket: 10 yuan Address: No. 25 Donghuan Road, Gaochang District, Turpan
