What began as a routine travel vlog in China’s Xinjiang region has now triggered a heated debate online, especially among viewers in Pakistan and India. A Pakistani content creator visiting Kashgar, one of the most culturally significant cities for Uyghur Muslims, shared visuals that many social media users described as both surprising and unsettling.
The now-viral video shows the vlogger walking through the old quarters of Kashgar, a city known for its Islamic architecture, mosques, and centuries-old Uyghur traditions. In one part of the clip, he points towards a mosque-like structure where a woman was seen dancing on the first floor of a building while the main gates appear shut.
