In the ancient city of Kashgar, a beautiful place in southern Xinjiang, people celebrated the joy with the dance of the Festival of Sacrifice. China.Org reported.

Elijan Arken, a Chinese Muslim, and his 4-year-old son rushed home after Eid al-Adha prayers.

Hundreds of kilometers north of Kashgar is the home of Erken Rehim, a farmer in Yuli County, Bayingolin Mongolia Autonomous Prefecture.

The smell of boiled mutton wafted through the courtyard, and local specialties such as Sanzi (or fried dough) and cakes filled the table, as well as sweets sent by friends.

Even though Erken Rehim has been busy preparing for the Eid al-Adha holiday lately, he still goes to the cotton fields every day. “Thanks to last year’s big harvest, I have paid off almost all of the loans for agricultural materials,” he said.

With various celebrations, residents of all ethnic groups in Xinjiang enjoy the three holidays of Eid al-Adha.
