Xinjiang-Day 8 (202 1.7. 17)- Kuqa to Kashgar (Ancient City)

If you ask me what impressed me the most about Kuqa?

Except for yesterday's Duku Highway and Qizil Grottoes, we just ate and lived. There are grapes, cantaloupe (it is said that there is more light, high temperature and large temperature difference, which is beneficial to sugar accumulation) and mutton. Last night, I had a barbecue in Shagangkeng, King Kong, ate barbecue, lamb chops, Zanbao meat, and talked about the 43-degree Yili Special Zone liquor.

I'm staying at the Golden Sunshine Hotel. Surprisingly, the hotel provides laundry service, which is too important and intimate for travelers. Also, aunt will prepare foot washing water for you to eliminate fatigue.

The pace of life in Kuqa is not fast, because breakfast starts at 8: 30 (at the request of the tour guide, we have breakfast at 8: 00 half an hour in advance). It's a long road today. The tour guide said that today is expressway-it's more than 700 kilometers from Kuqa to Kashgar.

The mountains on the road are bare, and there are some short shrubs on the open space. The tour guide said: that's a red willow. Suddenly, mutton kebabs appeared in …

Expressway is in good condition, and expressway, which comes and goes, is separated, with a wide isolation belt in the middle. The road is opposite to the sky, and each goes his own way. It occasionally rains a little in the sky, which is a good thing for dry and hot southern Xinjiang.

On the way to Kashgar, I heard the tour guide say that Kashgar: the famous scenic spots are Aidijia Mosque, Guzhen Night Market and Centennial Teahouse. The residents here are very comfortable, and there are many centenarians. The home decoration is magnificent, and there are many snacks in Kashgar, which is faster than express delivery! People here drink tea, dance and eat snacks. One day has passed.

Friends of "Snow Mountain" reminded everyone to look out of the window: there is a reddish-brown mountain nearby and a snow mountain in the distance-the tour guide said it was Kunlun Mountain!

When I first saw Kunlun Mountain, I quickly took photos. Kunlun mountain, towering into the sky, straight into the sky.

At noon, I simply grabbed a handful of rice and continued on my way. Passing through the Artux service area, I found grape racks, figs and cantaloupes in the service area.

In Sancha Road Service Area, we have undergone strict nucleic acid detection (this is the third nucleic acid detection in Xinjiang). Seeing the map of tourism distribution in Xinjiang, Xinjiang is really too big.

Continue to get on the bus and finally arrive in Kashgar at eight o'clock in the evening. In the evening, I tasted the delicious food in the high-class restaurant of Uygur nationality.

It is said that this is a restaurant of Uighurs in TOP2, Kashgar-Golden Bottle. The interior decoration is very distinctive.

Boutique dishes, handmade cold noodles, noodles, yogurt. There are also rose tea and special meat buns (which is really a great benefit for me as a Shandong native). Mutton is delicate and tender-lamb chops, kebabs, the first shelf of meat. When I came back, I passed by the ancient city and was surrounded by high walls, occupying a whole block. I will definitely visit the ancient city the day after tomorrow.

Today is the longest day (700 kilometers), and I saw the ancient city (with a history of more than 2,000 years)-Kashgar. I have seen the top restaurants and delicious food of Uighurs. The local people live comfortably in Kashgar, with fresh air, developed transportation and strong fruit industry around. When there is no epidemic, neighboring countries can trade face to face. It is conceivable that the city is slowly regaining the feeling of the center of the Silk Road. Bless this ancient and modern city!
