The Thursday Market<br>Kuqa :: Xinjiang, China: Kuqa, Xinjiang, People's Republic of China
: People You Meet; Bridges.
Ummm, this would be the underground parking. The market is in the town, mostly on the west side of the river bank, but spilling out onto and across this bridge.

My photographs don't really do this event justice--the Thursday market in Kuqa has a charm and utility which the more famous Kashgar market can't match. I was the only foreigner, for one. But the setting, mostly in the winding streets of Kuqa's old town, is not littered with the communist-era concrete white elephants characterising large sections of Kashgar's.
