⚽ The Village That Lives for Football
In Yikesak village, football isn’t just sport – it’s heritage.

From toddlers to grandparents, the game unites generations under the Pamir Mountains’ golden light. Talk about #SquadGoals! 💪

But these farmers aren’t just growing fruit – they’re culinary wizards! ✨ From jam that puts supermarket brands to shame to mooncakes that could rival Mid-Autumn Festival classics, their cold-chain deliveries are sweetening lives nationwide. Pro tip: Their dried figs > your average candy bar. 🍫
