Kashgar

Kashgar is most famed for it's Sunday Bazaar which has been running in some form since the city's first written mention in the 2nd-century BC. It was of the most prosperous trading posts and most strategically important cities on the Silk Road. The narrow mud-walled alleys of the Old Town give a wonderful sense of a bygone era. Sadly, the Chinese government have flattened large areas of the original town and built plenty of bland modern buildings, but the essence remains.

Client Testimonials

Everything you did for us whilst we were away was hugely appreciated, and Ampersand has been exemplary in every way. I'll always recommend you!
- Mr Richard Stoughton, Sri Lanka
We have just returned back from a wonderful trip. Thank you very much for organising everything. The transfer was excellent – for once they had perfect car seats. The villa was lovely, just what we needed and the hotel had helpfully put us as far away as possible from everyone else. The breakfast buffet was the best I have ever seen – and I am slightly obsessive over breakfast!! There was an incredible choice, something for everyone and so beautifully presented. A real highlight of the trip. Thank you again for sorting everything - and at such short notice!
- Redmayne family, Phuket
I thought the Ampersand team was outstanding. We couldn’t have hoped for anything more.
- Mr Geoffrey Johnson, India
