Kashgar Market

Kashgar's Sunday Bazaar is famous across the region. This is the biggest market in central Asia and with a history of more than 2000 years, is one of the main reasons to venture this far west. There are stalls selling everything you can think of, but a visit here is not about the shopping but rather the experience. The various sounds, sights, and smells are an assault on the senses, and will not be soon forgotten. The market is active every day, but the livestock section is on Sundays only and is now held in a separate part of the city.
