As the popular saying goes, Xijiang is a hometown to fruits and the most prestigious are the grapes of Turpan, melons of Hami, bergamot pears of Korla and pomegranates of Karghalik. In ancient times, Turpan was a hot spot for travelers and traders on the Silk Road. Here they sold and traded all kinds of goods, and one of those goods was local grapes, raisins, jams, and wines.
Here there is a great variety of grapes: white, red, green, and black, some with seeds, and some without, all tasty and worth trying once or twice. You can get them ripe, get them dry, get them in jam form or get them in wine form to enjoy.[Photo/IC]
