Kashgar Alleys: The Millennium Heartbeat of a Maze

Stepping into the alleys of Kashgar Old Town feels like falling into a rift in time—carved wooden doors on earthen walls are half-open, revealing the life secrets of Uyghur families🪔, the painted walls of Rainbow Alley glow with a honey-like sheen under the sunset, and around the corner, you might catch the aroma of freshly baked naan from a bakery or the laughter of children kicking a ball⚽. Budai Alley, Mill Alley... these winding paths hold the old dreams of Silk Road caravans. At dusk, light and shadow slant across the earthen walls, copper pots clink in the pottery shop, and your shadow overlaps with the camel caravans from a thousand years ago📸. ✨ Tips: Wear comfortable shoes! The alleys are like a maze, but getting lost is where the surprise begins~
