Licensing Lightbox About Contact Guestbook
Kashgar (also spelled Cascar or Kashi in Chinese) is an oasis city in the western part of China's Xinjiang province. It has around 200000 inhabitants and is home to a substantial Uighur Muslim community. Kashgar retains a small old town, but nowadays the modern part of Kashgar is by far bigger. It has a big Sunday market, which unfortunately is not as spectacular as it probably way years ago. Nowadays Kashgar is a major tourist centre.
