Xinjiang Travel | Tekes Bagua City, a city without traffic lights.

Tekes, located in the Ili Kazakh Autonomous Prefecture of Xinjiang, is a charming place. The city was built in 1937. Tekes County is in the shape of a Bagua, and is the only city in China built according to the Bagua layout of the Book of Changes, so it is also known as "Bagua City". The entire city is centered around the Taiji Altar in the central square, with radial roads extending outward, forming a unique Bagua pattern. The city is small and is the only city without traffic lights. The roads are interlocking and interconnected. Standing high and overlooking, the layout of the entire city is clear at a glance, which is amazing. The best time to travel to Tekes is summer (June to August) and autumn (September to October). The weather is warm in summer, and the grassland is green; the weather is cool in autumn, the leaves change color, the scenery is gorgeous, and it is also a good time for photography and autumn appreciation. -
