Yusup Malmusa, known as Lao Ma, guides visitors along the remote Tasha Ancient Trail in China's Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region, sharing the challenges and beauty of life in this uninhabited region. A Kazakh who works closely with local Tajik communities, he helps transport supplies, rescue travelers, and maintain the trail that sustains nearby villages. Through his dedication, Lao Ma has built lasting bonds with locals and ensured the trail remains a lifeline for their daily lives. Today, the trail welcomes visitors from across China, where they can witness resilience, teamwork and the spirit of helping others.
