Uygur Ancient Village

Uygur Ancient Village is a national AA-level tourist attraction.

Uygur Ancient Village is located in Yargole Village, Yar Town, Gaochang District, Turpan City — a place with a history of several hundred years. Adjacent to the ancient city of Jiaohe, it covers an area of over 20,000 square meters. It is a tourist attraction that showcases the original Uygur folk customs and the historical culture of Jiaohe, and serves as a large complex of museums.

The Uygur Folk Custom Exhibition Hall and traditional dwellings complement each other within the scenic area, presenting a three-dimensional display of the Uygur people's historical evolution, productive labor, residential architecture, local customs, religious beliefs, and more. Many of these are exhibits of original cultures that have disappeared or are in the process of vanishing.
