Hotel Nu’erlan

Hotel Nu’erlan in Kashgar is about 10km from the Kashi Laining International Airport. It is within thirty minutes walk from the Kashgar Old Town, the Grand Bazaar or the Id Kah Mosque, the largest mosque in Xinjiang. Inside, the décor exuded an aura of stylish Uyghur tradition as well as elegant European splendour. 

努尔兰大酒店

位于喀什市中心的努尔兰大酒店距离喀什国际机场仅十公里左右。从酒店步行三十分钟内可到达喀什老城区、大巴扎或艾提尕尔清真寺。酒店内雅致的布置结合了维吾尔族传统的气息及欧洲风情。

Ladies’ Choice

Beside our hotel were many shops selling gold ornaments. The local women have a predilection for gold over handbags and cosmetic products. We noticed both Uyghur and Chinese languages were prominently displayed in signboards in business and public areas. 

女士首选

就在我们酒店旁边，有很多卖金饰的商店。与手袋和化妆品相比，当地女性更喜欢黄金。我们注意到，商业和公共区域的招牌注有维吾尔语和汉语两种语言。

Maze of Kashgar

Exploring Kashgar old town was like manoeuvring an enormous maze. The trick was to look at the stone tiles on the ground. Hexagons meant there was access to other parts of the town whereas quadrilateral tiles meant one must turn back eventually. 

喀什*迷宫* 

探索喀什老城就像穿行于巨大的迷宫。窍门在于观察地上的石砖。石砖的形状透露此路是否连结其他街道；六角形的砖意味着此路通往其他地区，而四角形的砖意味着人最终必须转身回头。

Old City Walk

No private vehicle was permitted within this restored ancient city except the electric cars that carry tourists around. The houses in Kashgar town were mostly constructed with earth and wood but are now gradually being given a facelift and reinforcements. 

喀什老城街道

除了载运游客的电动车以外，不允许其他车辆进入。城裡的房屋以往多數用土木搭建，必须现在逐渐在外觀和結構上得到翻新及加固。

Beauty in Diversity

Despite harsh environmental conditions, this land thrives because it allows for diversity. There is the diversity of ethnicity, cultures, religious beliefs, architecture, geographical features and of human activities. The old town of Kashgar displays the architectural charm of central and western Asia. 

多元性之美

尽管环境条件恶劣，这片土地仍然蓬勃发展，因为它的多元性。 种族、文化、宗教信仰、建筑、地理特征和人类活动都存在多元性。 喀什老城展现了中西亚的建筑魅力。
