nengdou5If you come to southern Xinjiang, you must eat more mutton skewers. The sheep in Xinjiang drink mountain spring water, eat Chinese herbal medicine, and take Liuwei Dihuang pills. Do you think the mutton here is not delicious? The mutton is marinated and then grilled, and the meat is very tender. In Xinjiang, basically no matter where you eat mutton, it will be delicious!

Stayed in Kashgar for 5 days, of which 3 days by car in the surrounding scenic spots, and about 2 days in the city of Kashgar. Because the daily itinerary is relatively fast, I basically eat more casually. I simply record the feelings I have eaten this time for reference only. ①〖 Ancestors of the 〗: The store is just outside the Xichengmen of the ancient city. I bought 1 sesame dumpling and 1 spicy skin dumpling (it feels like the taste is average, because the one that was given to us at the time was not freshly baked, and it felt like it was baked out and put outside for a long time, so it was very hard, resulting in a not very good first impression of the dumpling. But then I ate it just baked in other places. It was so delicious. I finally understood what it was called to eat freshly roasted! ! ! )②〖 Tu Ram Roast Meat Shop 〗: The store is in the ancient city of Kashgar. After strolling around, I walked into this alley and ate mutton skewers. I ordered 5 skewers of mutton skewers. 5 skewers of small rows, 2 skews of lamb, 2 skews of red willow barbecue, I thought it was definitely not enough to eat, I still wanted to eat some other later, but I couldn't eat it in the end (the taste is OK, the skewers are very large, I suggest you do it in moderation, not enough to add). ③〖 Two-machine fried noodles 〗: After visiting the ancient city at night, I randomly found a noodle restaurant to eat noodles (the store is outside the ancient city). I forgot the name of the noodle restaurant. I ordered a "two-machine fried noodles". I feel that the taste is not bad. I searched online and it may be called "two-machine fried noodles". But each store is estimated to have a different name, interested friends can find a fried noodles with similar description to try. ④〖 Elegant Food Hall 〗: The store is on the way from Kashgar to Ta County. There are a lot of food, but because we have to hurry, we ate a few buns, beef buns 1.5 one, everyone ate 3, I feel that the taste is OK, mainly on the way. The friends who are too lazy to find food in Taxian can try it by the way. ⑤〖 White Mother lamb chops noodles 〗: There is no noodles at night, only fine noodles. It is recommended that friends who want to eat noodles should try to go there as soon as possible. Fine noodles are ordinary noodles, but the taste of soup is OK. ⑥〖 New Blue Sky Pigeon Soup Store 〗: Just near the east gate of the ancient city, we walked past the opening ceremony after watching the city. I feel that there are not many types to order in the morning. I feel that the pigeon soup is really fresh and there is no fishy smell. It is too amazing to drink a bowl of hot pigeon soup when the cold weather is cold! ⑦〖 Mamuti buys and buys roast buns shop 〗: I wanted to eat the hot "Zunong roast buns", but when I went there, I didn't open the door, so I went to the next house to eat something casually. There are two flavors of original and green pepper. ⑧〖 Kashgar Ancient City Food Street 〗: After visiting the Gaotai House in the evening, I planned to cross from the east gate of the ancient city to go back to the Xicheng. As a result, I accidentally broke into a food street in Dongcheng (it should be near the Khan Bazaar, I can’t remember it). There are a variety of food here, there are many sheep's heads, Sheep hoof, sheep's hoof, sheep's hoof is only 8 yuan a (although a bit savory, but it is really cheap), there are barbecue, fruit, etc., it is very satisfying to walk on this street at night! In addition, the fruit bought in Kashgar is super sweet and delicious!
When visiting Kashgar, you absolutely must visit these places! Here's a simple, easy-to-remember 5-day itinerary for you, so you can head out straight away! Day 1: In-depth Tour of Kashgar Old City - Morning: Arrive at the East Gate of the Old City at 10:30 AM to watch the opening ceremony. Uyghur women and men dance in beautiful costumes – it's a truly spectacular experience! After entering the city, head toward Ajeya Road, lined with copperware and woodcarving shops. Remember to haggle in half! For example, if a copper kettle is listed at 200 RMB, try offering 100 RMB. - Noon: Visit the Id Kah Mosque, right on the edge of the Old City. Admission is 20 RMB. Be sure not to enter during prayer times (2:00 PM-4:00 PM and 7:00 PM-8:00 PM). You can admire the architecture in the square; its yellow walls and green roofs are particularly stunning. - Afternoon: Enjoy rose milk tea with a piece of Hera cake at a century-old teahouse – sweet but not cloying. Sit on the second floor and listen to an old man play the rebab. If you're lucky, you might even sing along. - Evening: Visit Khan Bazaar Night Market! Enjoy roasted pigeon, lamb intestines, rice sausage, and rice lung, all served with a bowl of yogurt shaved ice. Keep going until you need to lean against the wall! Day 2: Fragrant Concubine Garden + Cultural Experience - Morning: Take a taxi to Fragrant Concubine Garden (ticket price 120 yuan, including a performance). There will be a welcoming ceremony at 11:30 AM. The "Emperor Qianlong" in yellow and the "Fragrant Concubine" in red will come out to greet you, and you can take photos with them. The mausoleum is built in Islamic style, with beautiful blue tiles. Remember to wear light-colored clothing for photos. - Afternoon: Visit the Gaotai Residences. Although they are under renovation, the old houses on the outskirts are still worth photographing. The mud walls and wooden windows make it feel like stepping into a movie. Then, visit the Kashgar Museum to see mummies, ancient silk, and learn about Kashgar's history. - Evening: We recommend staying in a guesthouse in the ancient city, such as "See Xinjiang Again." With its carved wooden doors and stained glass windows, stargazing from the rooftop at night is incredibly romantic. Day 3: Day 1 on the Pamir Plateau - Full Day: Charter a car to the Pamirs (800 RMB/day, a shared car for four is more economical). Drive along National Highway G314 and first visit Baisha Lake. The water is a jewel-blue, perfect for photos in a red dress! Remember to buy the 40 RMB entrance fee. - Afternoon: Karakul Lake, located at the foot of Muztagh Ata, offers a 45 RMB entrance fee. You can see the snow-capped mountains reflected in the lake. At an altitude of 3,600 meters, avoid running or jumping, as this can easily lead to altitude sickness. - Evening: Stay in Tashkurgan County. We recommend "Meet the Toglenxia Mugaodi Starry Sky Camp." You can watch the Milky Way from your bed. For dinner, try the Tajik yak beef noodles, which are chewy and flavorful. Day 4: Khunjerab National Gate + Panlong Ancient Trail - Morning: Depart from Tashkurgan County, 2.5 hours to Khunjerab National Gate (ticket 39.5 yuan, shuttle bus 5.5 yuan). It's 5,100 meters above sea level, so it's very cold! Remember to wear a down jacket! Be sure to check out the National Gate Monument and the China-Pakistan Boundary Monument. You might even see Pakistani trucks passing by. - Afternoon: On the way back to Tashkurgan County, visit the Panlong Ancient Trail. The trail, with over 600 curves, winds around the mountain like a black dragon. There's an observation deck at the top, perfect for taking cool road photos! Be sure to slow down on curves. If you're prone to motion sickness, take motion sickness medicine in advance. - Evening: Return to Tashkurgan County for grilled buns. I recommend "Tugongyang BBQ Restaurant." The skin is crispy and the meat is tender. At 2 yuan each, you can easily eat 10! Day 5: Return + Free Time - Morning: If time permits, visit Bandir Blue Lake. The water is a Tiffany blue, a stunning contrast to the surrounding barren mountains. Admission is free, so take as many photos as you like. - Afternoon: Return to Kashgar. On the way, you'll pass Muztagh Ata Glacier Park. If you want to see the glacier up close, you can enter for 90 RMB. The glacier tongue is right before your eyes, resembling a giant white dragon. - Evening: Buy some dried fruits in the ancient city. Almonds and raisins are half the price of those in mainland China! I recommend "Grandpa's Grandpa's Dad's Naan," freshly baked rose-shaped naan that lasts a month. Things to Note: 1. Border Pass: You need a border pass to Khunjerab and Tashkurgan County. You can get one for free at the police station next to the Fragrant Concubine Garden in Kashgar. Just bring your ID. 2. Altitude Sickness: The Pamirs are at a high altitude. Eat Rhodiola rosea a week in advance, avoid washing your hair or showering, and keep an oxygen tank (30 RMB/can) in your car for use if you feel unwell. 3. Transportation: There are no direct buses from Kashgar to Tashkurgan County, so we recommend chartering a car or joining a tour group. A tour group costs 300-500 yuan per person and includes entrance fees to Baisha Lake and Kashgar Lake, making it a hassle-free and cost-effective option. 4. Weather: Kashgar is hot in August, but the Pamirs are cold in the mornings and evenings, so bring a fleece jacket. Baisha Lake experiences direct sunlight in the morning and backlight in the afternoon, so take photos early. 5. Food: For pilaf, we recommend "Ailizati," where the lamb is tender and juicy; for baked buns, go to "Aizmati," where they're juicy and fresh from the oven; and for jar meat, go to "Nuolan Cuisine," where it's delicious with naan. Budget Reference (Per Person): - Transportation: Chartered car 200 yuan/day x 4 days + shared car 300 yuan = 1,100 yuan - Tickets: Xiangfei Garden 120 yuan + Baisha Lake 40 yuan + Kashgar Lake 45 yuan + Khunjerab 39.5 yuan = 244.5 yuan - Accommodation: B&B 200 yuan/night x 4 nights = 800 yuan - Meals: 100 yuan/day x 5 days = 500 yuan - Total: Approximately 2,644.5 yuan Kashgar is a place you won't want to leave once you're there. Remember to bring plenty of power banks; there are so many beautiful sights your phone won't be able to capture! If you have time, visit the poplar forests at Zepjin Lake (at their peak beauty in October) or ride a camel in the Dawakun Desert. It's definitely worth the trip! 🌄 #Ruge's Journey #The Places Most Asked About on WeChat Moments #Outdoor Activities #Where to Go on the Weekend #Romantic Travel Destinations in China
