Kashgar is more than a destination; it’s a living piece of history and the cultural soul of the Uyghur people. You’ll spend days getting lost in the mud-brick alleys of the Old Town, sipping tea in centuries-old teahouses and discovering artisan workshops. But beyond the city’s incredible atmosphere, Kashgar serves as the launching point for one of the world’s greatest adventures: the Karakoram Highway. From here, we begin the epic journey into the Pamir mountains, driving towards towering, ice-clad peaks and the stunning Karakul Lake. Kashgar is where you immerse in ancient culture before embracing pure alpine wilderness.
