Kashgar

The best time to visit Kashgar is during the autumn season (September to November). The weather is pleasant, and this is the time when many festivals and events take place in the city.

Some popular tourist attractions in Kashgar include the Id Kah Mosque, Abakh Khoja Tomb, Old Town Kashgar, Karakul Lake, and the Kashgar Bazaar.

As Kashgar is a conservative Muslim city, it is advisable to dress modestly. Women should cover their heads, wear long sleeves and dresses or pants, and avoid showing too much skin. Men should avoid shorts and sleeveless shirts.

Kashgar's cuisine is a fusion of Chinese, Middle Eastern, and Central Asian flavors. Some of the local dishes you should try include polo (pilaf), lagman (noodles), manta (dumplings), samsa (meat-filled pastry), and kebab.

Kashgar is generally safe to travel to. However, as the city is located near the border with Pakistan and Afghanistan, it is advisable to avoid traveling to areas near the border. It is also advisable to take common safety precautions, such as not walking alone late at night and keeping an eye on your belongings.
