Silkroad travel: Xinjiang

In Wuqia we 5 cyclists that had met by chance on the way from the Pamir to China, went to this restaurant . For once you can spot me (to the left) besides Peter. Since we were now on a good road and wanted to drive quickly we had to use the helmets. This was the first time since Samarqand.

Hallo Dieter!
Wo du hinkommst entsteht wohl ein Menschenauflauf ;-) aber eure Packesel sind ja auch sehenswert. Interessant sind die Mauern des Gebäudes - nicht sehr beruhigende Fugen ... und dieser so skeptisch dreinblickende junge Mann im Vordergrund ist einfach herrlich! Ein rundherum interessantes Foto!Grüße aus dem Frühling!
Frank

Are those mud bricks in the walls, or baked bricks?
