Uygur Girls Wearing Yellow and Red at the Ancient City of Gaochang

Near Turpan, Xinjiang

Four girls, wearing their traditional costumes, wait for tourists to have their pictures taken with them or to take their pictures for a small fee.

In real life, monk Tang San Feng (in the novel Journey to the West), was reputed to spend 3 months in Gaochang as an honored guest of the king on the way to India to pickup Buddha’s script.
