Inside Asia’s Largest Livestock Market in Kashgar, Xinjiang｜Giant Animals & Street Food Heaven！

Xinjiang Kashgar, the westernmost major city of China and a cultural crossroads along the ancient Silk Road. In this episode, I take you into the Kashgar livestock bazaar—one of the largest livestock trading markets in Asia—to document its raw and breathtaking trading scenes, and to explore every corner of the bazaar to experience the most authentic frontier street life. In this vibrant and energetic market, I encountered the unique fat-tailed sheep, witnessed the authentic trading understanding between herders and merchants, and experienced the traditional bazaar lifestyle—from rough livestock trading to a small street barbershop, and finally to the mouthwatering local flavors. Grilled lamb skewers, crispy baked buns, rich pilaf, along with refreshing milk ice cream and shaved yogurt ice, each dish reflects the character of Kashgar. I hope this video allows you to feel the heat and warmth of this land through the screen.
