Last Words



The silk road has been amazing! And I could not believe that I had ventured 5000 kilometres in 3 weeks! 

I would definitely miss the awesome Central Asia scene in the border towns of Xinjiang, and how they slowly turn more and more oriental as I move eastwards, heading for Xi'an. Imagine how traders used to travel between the Middle Kingdom and Europe, and how these caravans are packed with exotic commodities, braving through the barren desserts and serpentine mountain paths. 

I couldn't make it to Northern Xinjiang for its awesome landscape views, and that might serve as a motivation to visit here again, someday, soon.
