Silkroad travels: Kashgar

Huge parts of Kashgar city are still like this. You can seriously get lost, the sun wont help in orienting as it is often hidden by the desert dust. But you can rely on the great kindness of people who will lead you. I cannot giv precise coordinats for this picture, "View: map" puts the mark where the shot could have been taken.

Hallo Dieter!
Das ist ja eine richtig malerische Gasse und die Pflanzkübel machen Sie sogar ein bißchen "möbliert". Die Architektur, besonders diese Ziegelmauern auf der Holzkonstruktion, ist interessant - und für mich wieder ganz erstaunlich: diese Sauberkeit! Wenn ich da an unsere Straßen denke ...
Einen schönen Sonntag! Hier blühen Narzissenund Tulpen und Meisen und Buchfinken singen schon.

Hallo Dietrich,
so eine riesige Oase ! Die Koordinaten sind Gold wert, sonst wär´s eine namenlose Gasse..vielleicht sogar in Europa.
Super !

I really like this photo; I feel present in the picture. What a wonderful adventure it must have been, following the Silk Road.
