Minarets II

At the heart of Kashgar is the Id Kah Mosque, the largest mosque in China (although I actually found it less impressive than the mosque in Xining.)

Yet another caravan of camel statues.  That little kid standing on the far left in red & blue was actually wearing a Spiderman outfit.  I wish I had been quick enough to capture of shot of him riding one of the camels.  It would have been the perfect complement to the Captain America on a Chinese tank photo!Two head of cattle.  (See, they aren’t mandatory like in Chinese but English does have some measure words.)  The area around the mosque is a bustling marketplace.
