Kashi, a historic gem on the ancient Silk Road in northwest China's Xinjiang, is attracting tourists with a newfound vibrancy. The old city offers an immersive cultural experience with Han Dynasty-themed opening ceremonies, creative Nang bread coffee, over 150 photography shops and lively night street food scenes. Traditional music, raw-soil architecture, and artisan hammering blend seamlessly with modern touches. In the first quarter of 2026, Kashi welcomed nearly 6.5 million visitors, a sharp increase from last year, proving that culture-led tourism keeps history alive.
