The ancient city of Kashgar at night

The ancient city of Kashgar is quieter at night than during the day.

The tireless children in the alley are still chasing and playing, and some tourists linger, capturing beautiful moments with the lens.

The leafy Parthenocissus climbed the window bars of the small building, and some even covered the whole window.

The orange light passes through the leaves of Parthenocissus tricuspidata, which makes people daydream.

In the night, crossing the street, half a street or snuggling, or opposite, the exquisite brick carvings on the wall are in the night, and the artistic atmosphere is getting stronger and stronger.

At the end of the alley, it suddenly became clear. It turned out to be through the Millennium Old Street, also called "Career Street". There are many traditional craftsmen in this street, such as iron art, bronze ware, carpentry and musical instrument making.

Many traditional handicrafts that are almost extinct elsewhere continue here. In the century-old teahouse, people chat and drink tea comfortably, unload the fatigue of the day and enjoy the leisurely time of the ancient city of Kashgar.

I often wonder why people have a soft spot for the ancient city of Kashgar. Perhaps it is because people are getting busier and busier in the accelerating pace of work, and what they have lost for a long time can be found here, that is, a true self and a quiet heart.

An "old man's head melon" sweet into the bone marrow by the roadside, or a fragrant and sweet Kashi "earth peach", tastes really different.

These sweet, delicious, natural and green melons and fruits unique to Kashgar not only feast their eyes on tourists who come to Kashgar, but also fascinate Kashgar people who are far away from their homeland dreams.

The popularity of tourism has brought a new life to the residents in the ancient city, with shops, restaurants, teahouses, cafes and handicraft shops.

Walking out of the gate of the ancient city, tourists are still in an endless stream. Although it is past zero, they are still in high spirits. A beautiful trip has just begun in the bright night of the ancient city.

The story of the ancient city is repeated every day, but every day is wonderful and different.
