The main building is very beautiful and the park is very large. It takes an hour to visit it carefully, but the only places worth visiting are the tomb and the mosque. The exit is a bit roundabout and there are many shopping spots.
The cemetery, the lecture hall, and the Jiaman Mosque are the three historical sites within the Xiangfei Garden; the remaining buildings and sculptures were added later. The sculpture wall depicting Xiangfei's life is quite nice, but the only drawback is that the text is a bit small and partially obscured by flowers and plants. As a cultural landmark, text and images are essential for this introduction, and I hope the park management will further optimize and improve this.

It's worth a visit. The people are very nice and unique. Everyone in the city speaks Uyghur, except for tourists. People there seem to prioritize appearances. Even on a hot day, the older men in suits and hats, and the women in vibrant long dresses, are stunning. They're quite sophisticated, and it feels like being abroad. I love it!

The Gaotai residence is the best attraction I feel in Kashgar this time. Feel the cultural atmosphere between different ethnic groups. The streets and lanes in the scenic spot are crisscrossed and horizontal, and ethnic characteristics can be displayed everywhere. Free visit now.
The Kashgar Gaotai Dwellings, preserved as a heritage park, boast over 600 houses built of mud and poplar wood. They stretch across a gently sloping landscape, with lanes ranging from 6 meters wide to just 1.5 meters narrow. While the houses appear shabby, the sunlight filtering through their walls creates a unique charm.

Free to visit and free parking. Although the collection is small, there are many fine works. The most amazing one is the silk brocade robe with embroidered silk edges from the Northern Song Dynasty, which is exquisitely made and well preserved. The Kunlun Pavilion next to it introduces the nature and culture of the Kunlun Mountains in detail, which is worth a visit.
Kashgar Museum is some distance from the city center.
Parking is easy.
The building is large in size and there are not many cultural relics in the collection, most of which are replicas. Fortunately, multimedia is now developed, which can make up for the shortcomings of some cultural relics in the class.
There are free explanations every day, and the order and environment in the museum are very good.
