[Explanation] The encounter with the thousand-year-old ancient city of Kashgar in Xinjiang is a beautiful memory in spring, summer, autumn and winter.

Walking in the ancient city, a street corner and an alley seem like yesterday.

The renovated thousand-year-old ancient city, with its scenery along the way, one house and one scenery, amazes tourists from all over the world, and it is also a good place for locals to spend summer.

  [Explanation] On June 20, along the road paved with red bricks in the ancient city of Kashgar, I saw tourists shuttle in the criss-cross alleyways, or strolling in twos and threes, or strolling in the courtyard, jade bazaars, bronze bazaars, hat bazaars …

The native Najibai Abuleti is the operator of a coffee shop in the ancient city. She introduced that after the renovation of the ancient city, she and her brother ran the shop from 9 to 5, and the old-generation earthen houses became fashionable and beautiful. , The road is wide, the scenery is beautiful, the tourists are like weaving, and the business is booming.

  In the past, there were many old houses here, and the traffic was not too convenient. After the renovation, the place became a lot better, and there were more and more tourists. We opened this cafe, and our life is getting better and better.

  [Explanation] Walking into the Hat Bazaar of the ancient city, this is the "Hundred Years Hat Street" in the ancient city of Kashgar. The dazzling hats gather the highest skills of craftsmen.

Ayi Baiheti got up early in the morning to open the store, clean up, and help his father with the business.

Growing up in the "Hundred Years Hat Street", he watched the changes of this street little by little.

  After the renovation, our sanitation has also improved, and the traffic has become particularly good, so there are also a lot of tourists, and our family's business has also improved.

  [Commentary] The memory of the ancient city and the past of the ancient city can only be heard from Ali Mire, the commentator of the Kashgar Old City Protection and Comprehensive Management Memorial Hall. She introduced that the comprehensive management project of dilapidated and old houses in the old city was implemented in 2009. , which was basically completed in 2015.

The reconstructed old city not only reduces potential safety hazards, but also dredges up and down water and installs natural gas for residents, which greatly improves the quality of life of residents.

The renovated houses not only meet the production and living needs of the residents, but also retain the original traditional characteristics, and the tourism industry of the ancient city has been further developed.

  After the renovation, the quality of life of the residents has improved and the cost of living has decreased. Now you see those two- or three-story houses along the street. The first floor is their own shop, and the upper floor is their own house. That is to go out to do business during the day and go to sleep at night.

After the renovation, the old city became more and more beautiful, and more and more tourists came from all over the place.

  [Explanation] Liu Qingqing, a tourist from Jiangxi, lingered deeply on the ancient city and felt deeply.

  There is a saying that "you can't go to Xinjiang if you don't get to Kashgar", so I made an appointment with my little friend to play here.

Experience the culture here.

This place is really beautiful and attractive.

I hope that if you have time, you must come to Kashgar, Xinjiang to play.

  [Explanation] The streets and alleys of the ancient city were narrow, the houses were congested, the environment was dirty, and the living facilities for related residents were relatively lacking; today's old city has wide roads, many shops, and tourists.

In 2015, the Kashgar Ancient City Scenic Spot was officially listed as a national 5A-level tourist attraction, attracting tourists from all over the world.
