One of the largest Mao statues in all of China is locaed in downtown Kashgar. Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think it's one of those, look how far my power extends kind of things.

The medina close up. Told you it was an old town...

Just incase you needed an overview of Kashgar, here it is. The big green blog in the upper-right-hand corner of the picture is China's biggest mosgue, the Id Kah Mosque. All the small buildings around it are what I would call the "medina," or old town (at least that's what they call it in Morocco), but I don't know if that's what it's called in China. So basically, it's the old town ;o)
