    This is a very worthwhile scenic spot to visit. There are no extra charges. You can ride shared bicycles, tandem bicycles, four-person bicycles, and electric vehicles for 20 yuan per person within the scenic area. If you buy a ticket, you can ride a horse-drawn carriage for free to explore the scenic area. The golden poplar forests, blue skies, and yellow leaves make for a truly beautiful sight.

    It is worth a visit. The park is very large and many buildings are rebuilt. You can go up to the Baoyue Tower to overlook the park. There is no need to visit the exhibition hall. But the royal tombs and several mosques in the back are worth a visit.

    The Shache Mansion Scenic Area is also the Memorial Hall of the Shache Defense War in the Qing Dynasty. There are not many well-preserved historical attractions in Shache City, but it is still worth a visit. As a memorial hall, the introduction of historical sites is still a little lacking. The deeds of the Shache military and civilians in resisting foreign invasions and winning can be used as a case of patriotism education. In terms of transportation, if you don't drive yourself, it is still very convenient to walk.

    The giant dragon of the Pamir Plateau, the bloodline of the Kunlun Mountains. The 36-kilometer road hides 608 bends, with a turn every 50 meters. The black asphalt road, like a black dragon, entwined with the ochre-yellow mountain ridges, forms a breathtaking painting with the snow-capped mountains.

    After leaving Panlong Ancient Road, we headed back to Kashgar in the afternoon. We visited several scenic spots along the Wuhong Line and National Highway 314, including: Bandir Blue Lake, known as the "blue eyes" of the Pamir Plateau, Taheman Wetland (Figures 6 and 7), and the Red Mountain Canyon of Aoyitak Glacier Park.

    The river valley is lush and green, like an oasis, while the mountains on either side are desolate and lonely, their peaks dotted with glaciers. These conflicting tones create the unique beauty of the Pamirs, protected by generations of Tajik people! Then there are the stories of Stone City and the China-Pakistan friendship told at the Tieba Night Market!

    The Khunjerab Pass is the world's highest cross-border border crossing, located in Tashkurgan County on the Pamir Plateau at an altitude of 5,100 meters. It faces Pakistan and is connected to Pakistan via the Karakoram Highway. Walking quickly here makes it difficult to breathe, yet our soldiers have steadfastly guarded this high-altitude, thin-air border crossing in western China for many years. They are truly admirable and worthy of our respect. We salute them!

    A 10-minute stroll from the hotel is Kashgar's famous Gaotai Folk Houses. Kashgar Old Town is also very close, making it a great combination for a day trip. This residential complex is said to date back to the Kashgar Khanate. Legend has it that Ban Chao and Geng Gong of the Eastern Han Dynasty once lived here. Most of the existing buildings were built over 600 years ago. Due to their clay structures, they lack safety and stability. Beginning in 2009, a residential reinforcement and renovation project was launched, investing 839 million yuan to renovate 9,722 traditional Uyghur dwellings using carbon fiber reinforcement and steel support. In 2014, 150 million yuan was invested to improve the landscape. In 2021, an intangible cultural heritage preservation project was launched, implementing a "one-house, one-design" approach. The complex is scheduled to reopen in 2023 after renovations, with free admission. Currently, the complex is primarily home to artisan shops, with an area preserved in its original state for visitors to explore. A full tour takes about an hour and a half.

    Ticket checking at the entrance was a bit lax, and the standards for full-price and half-price tickets seemed to vary. However, the lake view was beautiful, and the experience was wonderful, with some satisfying horseback riding photos. I passed by again during the day and was again struck by the beauty. It's definitely worth a visit.

    The performance location is right next to the Gaotai residential area. After entering, the first thing you can do is interact with the actors up close to experience the exotic culture. Then you can sit down and watch the story of the Twelve Muqams for an hour. The depth of the story is comparable to that of Dunhuang, etc. Other things are okay.
