Kashi, one of the westernmost cities in the Chinese mainland, is steeped in history as a key hub on the Ancient Silk Road, connecting China, the Middle East, and Europe for over 2,000 years. Today, it continues to thrive as a center of trade and commerce in the Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region.
This summer, the Khan Bazaar night market, a beloved food street and tourist hotspot in Kashi, has undergone exciting upgrades and renovations thanks to rental investments. CGTN reporter Cao Chufeng and Tanzanian online influencer Diya teamed up to explore the newly revamped Khan Bazaar, sampling special Xinjiang delicacies and soaking in the vibrant local culture.
Their visit highlights the dynamic blend of traditional flavors and modern enhancements, making Kashi's night market a must-visit destination for both locals and travelers looking to experience the heart and soul of this ancient city.
