在一贯繁忙的周日中午时分(北京时间),我来到喀什葛尔牲畜市场(Livestock Market)。通常,一大群人观看、拍照、沉浸在那些你能看出必定很古老的生物中,但是我们做了上面所有的事,过得真开心!那里有些泥泞肮脏,混乱不堪,所以不要穿漂亮的衣服和鞋子,特别是如果你想进入动物区。这里会提起你的胃口,因为你能从市场买到一些最新鲜的烧烤厚肉片和羔羊肉片!如果周日你不在喀什葛尔牲畜市场(Kashgar),不要失望。我没意识到这个市场每天都有某种形式或新花样发生。不确定其它日子是否也这么混乱,但仅供参考。

这间市场有一个大型的牲畜市场,有从剪羊毛到卖羊毛所有有关羊的东西。唯一的缺陷是大量的游客似乎都和我有相同的爱好。

Once the biggest livestock on the silk road, you can still see how animals are being brought for sale in all sorts of vehicles, most people still dress in local style. The food being served In the stalls I didn't try for the sentimental reasons (the same animals stand on the market and are cooked), and sanitary reasons (I might be overly cautious). Unhappily the market has a more 'modern' look as before as there is a new large lane leading to it now. And do wear shoes you can scrub later on.

Last year me and my sister went on one of our most adventurous trips of our life. We travelled the Pamir Highway and continued all the way up to Kashgar. Normally we like to travel independent but since we both work we didn't have an indefinite amount of time so we decided to arrange a few things ahead. One of these things was our border crossing from Kyrgyzstan into China. This can be quite tricky as the border is open a few days a week and a few hours per day. And we found it difficult to decide which border to cross as we had two options which we both liked. Old Road Tours has been of great help! They advised and explained us all the details. They were never tired of answering our questions and when we finally decided the route they arranged everything, from invitation letter to transport from the border, very smoothly. We felt most welcome! And once in Kashgar we can definitely recommend you to rent bicycles with them to go to the animal market. It is a great way to see some countryside as well. So definitely a big recommendation! They really understand your needs.

This open air livestock market is a vestige of ancient customs. Every type of animal found in the region is available to buy/sell/trade/butcher here. NO OPEN SHOES, old clothes and cameras are critical to a positive experience. There are unsanitary conditions where food is prepared, animals are sheared and some are slaughtered. Animal abuse is not uncommon so be prepared.

Spent several hours at this most interesting animal trading and selling market for horses/goats/sheep/yaks/camels and other assorted farm animals. I believe it one of the last of its type in the world. You cane not be squeamish as the animals are not always treated humanly. Wear old clothes and clean your shoes once you leave.

I love it how everything still old style, authentic from bringing in the livestock, bargaining to food. I was overwhelmed with a lot of animal (cow, horses, camel, sheep, donkey) and people seems honest eventho we are foreigner.Such an experience that no one would missed in Kashgar.Visited in April 2013

The live stock market is now out of the city and not near the regular market at all. If you have been to a live stock area of any county fair, you have been to the Kashgar live stock market. Lots of dirt, lots of dust, lots of poop. There were no camels, very few horses, but lots of goats and cows. It was interesting to see them load and unload goats out of the trunk of the car and cows jump off trucks, but nothing like the pictures show.

I loved this market. It's chaotic and wonderful. Very ethnic. They sell camels and horses and sheep and other animals. It's fun to watch the locals bargaining. I almost got run over by someone test driving a horse. The food at the stalls by the market looked good but I wasn't venturesome enough.

This was scheduled as part of a Wendy Wu tour. We weren't expecting too much but it was great fun.The market has farmers bringing their livestock to be sold. Often on the back of a small truck. The livestock includes horses, sheep, cows, donkeys and camels.The best bits were watching the animals such as- the cows who didn't want to come off the truck then ran free- the fat bottomed sheep- sheep shearing with scissors- old fashioned shoeing horses- the potential buyers trying out the horses.Good fun and really recommend
