🍜 Food recommendations:
You must try the baked buns in Kashgar. The freshly baked buns have a crispy crust, and when you take a bite, the aroma of lamb instantly fills your mouth. There is also pilaf, a perfect blend of lamb, carrots, onions, and rice, which is super satisfying with every bite. Yogurt rice dumplings are also very special, with sweet and sour yogurt paired with soft and glutinous rice dumplings, creating a unique taste.
📸 Photography tips:
Wear light-colored clothes for better photos, such as a white dress, which looks very fairy-like against the apricot blossoms. Make good use of the foreground, such as an apricot blossom, to make the photo more layered. The light in the morning and evening is soft, making portraits and landscapes look beautiful.
💡 Travel tips:
The temperature difference between morning and evening in southern Xinjiang is large, so remember to bring a thick coat. Apply for a border pass in advance, as many attractions require it. Respect local customs, especially in areas inhabited by ethnic minorities.
Don't hesitate any longer! Pack your bags and head to this romantic date with the apricot blossoms in southern Xinjiang!
