Hotan Night Market
2298***97I am so happy. When I arrived in Hotan City, Xinjiang, I went straight to the night market for special delicacies, such as watermelon barbecue, yogurt rice dumplings, baked eggs, belly wrapped meat, flour lung, rice sausage, and mutton soup. I will lose weight after eating.
Hetian Tuan Cheng Scenic
白白驹幕府过隙In Hotan City, the buildings are in the traditional style of local ethnic minorities, but most of them are newly built or renovated.
I went there in the morning, ignoring the time difference. Around 10:30, there were almost no businesses open. I entered from one side and came out from the other, mainly to look at the buildings.
It is expected to be more lively at night. In such a large block, there is only one chef preparing ingredients for rice in the open air.
Hotan Museum
白白驹幕府过隙Hotan Museum is located in the center of Hotan, opposite the Prefectural Committee Courtyard.
The official residence should be newly built soon. It is very unique, especially the special exhibition of Niya ruins on the third floor.
There are a particularly large number of mummies in the collection, all of which were excavated in the Taklimakan Desert and span thousands of years.
The original cultural relic unearthed from the Niya site, "Five Stars from the East Benefiting China," is not in the Hotan Museum.
The facilities in the museum are advanced. Even if there is no explanation, through pictures, texts, videos and QR code scanning, if you read patiently and slowly, you can get an overview.
I watched a group of half-grown children go up and pat the mummy.
Lack of basic respect for the deceased.
Hotan Grand Bazaar
Zzixunshi99The first time I visited the Grand Bazaar, it was actually a big market. It was the most attractive place here. It should be the place to eat. I definitely recommend local specialties, and I can't eat this taste in other places.
Hotan County GuoJi BuXingJie
徐徐霞客之旅Hotan International Pedestrian Street is a relatively lively place in Hotan City. There are many shops in it where you can look around and stroll around. It is a very relaxing place. The street is not very long and there are some brand stores where you can buy something.
Yurungqash River
最最初的风88kvzNot far from the city. There are police patrols and you can't just go down and play. Of course, the police are there to protect your safety. The locals are right. It is quite difficult to find jade. But I think it is easy to find a few good-looking stones after digging river pebbles for six months. The source of the river is Kunlun Mountain and the end of the river is Taklimakan Desert. The river water is green and slightly turbid, and the river surface is wide. Not far from the river is the jade trading market, which is very exciting and you must go and have a look. Is the jade in the trading market real or fake? My friend told me that if you like it, it has value, and if you don't like it, it has no value!
Kunlunhu Park
酒酒店的朋友Kunlun Park is the largest park in Hotan, and it is free for tourists and citizens to visit.
There is a Ferris wheel and many entertainment projects for children and parents, as well as a large lake where you can play and row boats on the water.
[Fun] The most interesting thing is the sculptures every few hundred meters, including Xinjiang creations, roasted whole lamb, pomegranates, etc.
You must come here once when you come to Hotan.
Desert Observation Deck
天天上的蓝精灵017The desert watchtower is located in the eastern desert landscape road on the southern edge of the Grand Canyon.

The interior walls are also filled with Indian paintings and artworks, allowing you to experience culture and enjoy your eyes.
