The Colorful Doors of Gaotai Folk Houses

The doors of Kashgar's Gaotai Folk Houses are a vivid embodiment of Uyghur architectural artistry. Crafted predominantly from thick wood, they are painted in bold and vibrant hues such as sapphire blue, emerald green, and vermilion, standing out strikingly against the earthy yellow walls. The doors are adorned with exquisite carvings and geometric patterns, blending Islamic and Western Region cultural elements. Each door carries the essence of history and daily life, serving not only as a passageway but also as a distinctive visual symbol of this ancient neighborhood. #hellohalloween
