[Attraction] Restan Historical and Cultural Block [Address] Restan Road, Kuche, Aksu, Xinjiang, 100 meters west of Tuanjie New Bridge *In the flow of thousands of years of history, a variety of cultures have been derived, especially the colorful ethnic cultures of ethnic minorities, which are full of fatal charm and intoxicating. *Kuche County in Aksu, Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region has left a lot of historical buildings, the most amazing is this Restan Historical and Cultural Block. *Walking into the Restan Historical and Cultural Block, there is a feeling of crossing the time and space tunnel, as if walking into the mysterious ancient Loulan. *The doors of each building are different. The most distinctive thing is that each door is colorful, like a charming beauty in a costume. During the Qing Dynasty, the architectural features were more elegant, but Xinjiang was the only exception. The local people used the color and specifications of the gate to show their status. The more colorful and beautiful the gate, the wider and wider the gate, the higher the status of this family. *When walking in the street, many people are surprised that every door is really different, which means that you don't need a guide and you won't get lost. After careful observation, it will be found that the doors here actually follow the main color classification method. Green, red, and blue are the three most common colors. Each door of different colors represents different meanings. *Walking into this block, there will always be a door that you like. Have you been moved and want to take a photo with each door?

I was really attracted by the warm colors and rich exotic style of Restan Street in the old city of Kuche~ This old street near the Kuche Palace has colorful rainbow gates, gorgeous blooming flowers, and unique customs of the Western Regions. Every door here is a unique landscape, as if opening the door is a wonderful story. Many old objects or landscapes with the flavor of life in southern Xinjiang are placed in front of the doors, making it convenient for people to take photos. There are not too many tourists here, and it is not noisy and crowded, so it is more suitable for walking around at your leisure. Old teahouses and coffee shops are neatly arranged there like pearls. The old man drinking tea at the door of the teahouse is very kind, the primary school students passing by on their way to school are lively and cute, and the painters are devotedly creating on the wall. This street is very close to the Kuche Palace and can be seen as soon as you exit the palace gate. It is also not far from the Kuche Grand Temple. You can combine these three attractions into one tour route.

Resitan Old Street is located next to the Kuqa Royal Palace. It is an ancient street with rich historical and cultural value, and one of the few remaining old residential areas in Kuqa that still retains ethnic characteristics. It not only showcases the lifestyle and original appearance of Western Region civilization but also allows people to imagine the prosperity and bustle of ancient Kucha during the Han and Tang dynasties. Don't easily walk into the small shops in the old street. The colorful accessories will immediately captivate you. The intangible cultural heritage Adilas skirts, long-braided Doppa (flower hats), intricately patterned carpets, bling bling lamps, as well as refreshing handmade ice cream, fragrant naan, and enticingly colored pilaf... there will always be something that makes you spend money. 📍Detailed address: Resitan Road and Pahatabaza Road, Kuqa City; 🚉Transportation guide: Adjacent to Kuqa Royal Palace, direct bus access; ⏳Visiting time: 1-2 hours; 🌟Highlight features: Uyghur ethnic characteristic buildings, goods, and food.

Kuqa, formerly known as Qiuci, was a major town on the Silk Road. The entire city is colorful and full of Western charm, especially Rezi Street, which will leave a deep impression on you. The whole street is lined with colorful windows and doors, each shop decorated with its own unique style, reflecting the Kuqa people's love for life and inherent romantic sentiment. The prosperity of the Silk Road in those days can also be inferred from this, which is why Rezi Street attracts a large number of tourists. The Kuqa Palace is right at the entrance of this street. It is recommended to spend half a day touring it, and try the local yogurt, naan, big plate chicken, lamb skewers, and fried ice cream, all of which are great experiences. If you also love life, come and take a walk here.
