Ever wondered what a traditional Uygur wedding looks like in the Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region? 🌸 CGTN’s Liu Xin and British vlogger Luke just crashed one in Kashi—and it’s a cultural feast for the senses!
Silk, Bread, and High-Wire Magic
From the dazzling Atlas silk dresses to the aroma of freshly baked nang (a Uygur flatbread), the wedding was a vibrant mix of tradition and community joy. But the real showstopper? The Dawazi high-wire act, where performers balanced daringly above the crowd—no safety nets, just pure skill! 🎪
More Than a Party
Luke, known for his travel adventures, called it a “celebration of life.” The event wasn’t just about vows—it was a window into Uygur heritage, blending music, dance, and generations sharing stories. 💬 “It’s like stepping into a living museum,” Liu Xin remarked.
