06/13/09 Kashgar's old city is being destroyed Last year I visited Kashgar, on the western edge of China. It's home to the Uighur people, a Central Asian ethnic group whose culture is as interesting as a thousand years on the Silk Road would tempt you to imagine. As you read this, for some reason, Chinese bulldozers are razing Kashgar's old city. last timestamped: 06:20:46 13-Jun-2009 in categories:Travel/Vagabond'08 Comment name* email homepage No html. what's the second letter of your name?
