Kashgar or Kashi Sunday Market
Excerpted from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The city has a very important Sunday market.
Thousands of farmers pour in from the surrounding
fertile lands with a wide variety
of fruit and vegetables.
Kashgar's livestock market is also very lively.
Silk and carpets made in Hotan are sold at
bazaars, as well as local crafts, such as
copper teapots and wooden jewelry boxes.
Kashgarli Mahmut (Mahmut from Kashgar) have
written the first Ottoman - Arabic Exemplary
Dictionary called Divan-i Lugat-it Türk.
