Kashgar County | I became a shepherd by the snowy mountains.

Autumn in Kashgar is truly beautiful. In early October, the leaves have already turned yellow, and every day is sunny. I stayed for a night at a Tarik ethnic villager's home, feeling the romance here. On the way into the village is the Hailar Wetland Park, where streams, grasslands, and snowy mountains come into view all at once—it's breathtaking. At the village entrance, there is a rainbow road; walking along it, you can see many flocks of sheep grazing on the distant meadow. The host's living room hangs a photo of Chairman Mao, the poplar trees in the yard have been planted for over 40 years, and there are touching stories of generations voluntarily guarding the border.
