Exploring the Legends of the Western Regions:Comprehensive Guide to In-Depth Cultural Tour of Kashgar Xiangfei Garden✨
[Route Highlights:Deciphering the Cultural Code Spanning Three Centuries]
As a core cultural attraction in Xinjiang, Kashgar Xiangfei Garden weaves together the legend of Xiangfei with Qing Dynasty architecture, the folk customs of various ethnic groups, and the art of Western Regions gardening. The newly upgraded tour route in 2026 includes five themed zones:
Mystery of the Dome:Apak Hoja Mausoleum (Xiangfei’s Tomb)
This family mausoleum, built in 1640, features the largest existing blue-green glazed tile dome in Xinjiang. The tomb’s interior adopts a “square spiral” structure, with the central sarcophagus belonging to Xiangfei’s grandfather, Apak Hoja. The northeast chamber is said to house the remains of Rongfei, Emperor Qianlong’s beloved consort and the prototype of Xiangfei. Architects call it a “living fossil of Central Asian architectural art.”
Mirror Pool Fantasy:Love-Themed Landscape Zone
The Mirror Pool, designed in the style of the Taj Mahal, reflects the dome of Xiangfei’s Tomb. From 10:00 AM to 6:00 PM daily, artificial mist rises from the pool, complemented by storytelling about love legends from various ethnic groups beneath the “Love Tree,” making it a must-visit spot for travelers.
Baoyue Tower Immersive Theater

Actors invite audience participation to experience Qing Dynasty court etiquette. The tower features a 360-degree panoramic screen showcasing Xiangfei’s life, using holographic projection to recreate the prosperity of Emperor Qianlong’s reign.
Folk Handicraft Workshop
Exploring the Legends of the Western Regions: Comprehensive Guide to In-Depth Cultural Tour of Kashgar Xiangfei Garden✨ Under the guidance of artisans from various ethnic groups, visitors can experience intangible cultural heritage projects such as pottery firing, Adai silk tie-dyeing, and Dutar lute making.
