This trip to Southern Xinjiang is truly a visual and cultural feast that transcends time and space! On the Pamir Plateau, I was amazed by the majestic Muztagh Ata; in the ancient city of Kashgar,

I got lost in the lively, maze-like alleys. Here, not only do the golden poplars and vast deserts create stunning scenery, but the warmth of a bowl of hot tea at a Uyghur local’s home also touches the heart. The sincere smiles of the people I met along the way are even more memorable than the landscapes. Southern Xinjiang completely overturned my expectations—the guide was extremely professional and full of cultural care, even helped a group member celebrate a birthday, and assisted with drone travel photography throughout the trip, making the whole journey much more enjoyable.
