Editor's Note:
The love for music and dance runs deep within the Uygur people in Northwest China's Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region.
When the evening descends upon Shache county in Kashi Prefecture, a food bazaar comes alive, offering not only the unique food of Xinjiang, but also a glimpse into the peaceful and joyful lives of the local people. Each night, the locals sing and dance in the bazaar. When the music started, the local people were ready to invite their friends or even strangers to join them on the dance floor. The enthusiasm, joy, and relaxation dissolved in the air of the bazaar, as people laughed, cheered, clapped, and looked into every pair of smiling eyes.(Photos:Li Hao/GT)
