I hope Katherine don't feel too bad about what the guy said about Americans, I was there in 2009 talking to some locals and they did tell me they didn't like Americans, mainly because what happened in Iraq, Iran and later Afghanistan, some even celebrated after 911, we (the whole western countries) do have very bad reputation in Islamic world, and not even because "Chinese government" told them so, or "they lost their jobs due to the new act".
Wow the market place was quite an adventure. Islamic influence while they also spoke Chinese. The food selection was quite something too. Big bootie sheeps and those T shirts totally topped it off. 😂... Americans like Katherine makes America great! Keep up the good world Katherine, sharing China to the world.
Who would've thought that people in Xinjiang don't see Americans in a good light after all the western media circus? 😅 Politics aside, awesome video...always very entertaining. Keep safe and healthy!
cuz in their eyes, what the western world is doing is take business away from them while saying we care about you. The good thing is China itself already has a well big enough market for those lost international businesses, and the rest of China is willing to buy stuff from its own ppl.
That Uyghur Forced Labor Prevention Act passed by US Congress came into effect just last month which effectively describes all products from Xinjiang province are produced by forced labour - effectively cutting off a big market, cutting down employment of Uyghurs ironically the US claim it was trying to help.
@@劉沛-l3l The whole idea is to make China in a bad position. Whether the accusation is true or not, or if the sanction really hurts China and/or Xinjiang is not important.
@@123-h5i5y The act establishes a 'rebuttable presumption' of forced labor, which is slightly more nuanced than you are stating. Basically, goods can be imported from the region if they meet some level of assurance that they weren't produced through forced labor. It puts more bureaucracy into the supply chain in this case. Is the act politically motivated and will it unfairly affect people from the region? Unfortunately, I would have to say yes to both these points.

So entertaining and educational. You're great in video and you've noticeably upped your game since your start. The US-China relationship is the world's most important one, so thanks for doing your bit to help make the world a better place.

Fun fact - those are not "boxing pillows" or "Xinjiang hand pillows" - they are indeed, oven gloves for slapping naan on the wall of the oven :). That hand gesture the old man demonstrated with the "pillow" wasn't a haymaker punch. It was the movement of slapping on the naan.
Lovely vlog Katherine! Lots of fun stuff! It was hilarious to see you zoom in on the wobbly butts!! But good to see Xinjiang. Needless to say, you are a very good American. You truly do a lot to get Americans (and people all over the world) acquainted with the side of China that nobody shows.
What a fantastic day at the markets. We saw so much fun stuff. Love how Katherine went from filming sheep butts to becoming the butt of a joke. Butt that guy is wrong…you’re a good American! :D
Love you Katherine. You are enjoying every moment of your time in China. Great how you handle some not so good comments about America. Such maturity. Stay safe both of you on your journey.
I am from Malaysia,, I and my wife had been to this life animal market and to the Asia biggest bazaar in Kashgar a few years ago,,, We enjoy eating fresh lamb soup with Nan/nang bread and hand pull noodles,,, Laghman,, If I not mistaken that big butt sheep the local called it "Dumbar"
@@sebastianbarthez 10yuan one small bowl,,,,, usually in China ,,, their portion extra big,,, example one plate of pilaf/puolo rice can share by two Malaysian adults
The United States prevented the sales of Xinjiang cotton, which reduced the income of the Xinjiang people.Therefore, it is normal for Xinjiang people to not like the United States, but this is not the blogger's fault

Fantastic video of the market in Kashgar..I hope these markets all keep going in China even though the people. Prosper more..in the west we have lost all these places and unique goods that were made and sold.in markets .your lucky seeing all this Kathrine I envi your travels in China...and Wei I think I herd him speaking to the sheep..pretty good..enjoy.x

Great video Katherine. Eye opener to life in Xinjiang and for me, a new fascination in sheep and different breeds after realizing they could cost this much
Great video as always. That thicc lamb had a very distinguised face, very cute. Don't worry Katherine, everbody here knows that you're a great american! xD
@@kats_journey_east Dear Kathy please don't take offense. Mandarin is not their native tongue. I am sure they meant to comment on US government and its Xinjiang policies. Nothing against you or American people in general. Thanks for the great video. I am so impressed by the sheep butt. Now I know why they are called 大尾羊。
Thank you, Katherine & Wei; this is VERY interesting. So - you are now specializing in animal husbandry, sub-specialty: bubble-but Xinjiang sheep. (Hate to come across as but a primitive carnivore but I bet they taste real good.)
Telling the little kid Americans are bad - Hahahaha, you made my day. It's got to reach a wider USA audience. LOL Seriously, thanks again for this viewing experience. I wish I could go there after the pandemic. After all, it's not like you can see so many big bare butts in a single day. I had been to a NZ salesyard before. I remember the smell and the slurry underfoot. The Kashgar yard is definitely way more interesting.
Apparently, Xinjiang lamb doesn't have the very smelly lamby taste. I learned this after watching an Uyghur influencer visiting Shanghai and not able to handle the strong lamb taste there. She said, it's too smelly. I guess there is just something special about Xinjiang lambs.
@@flysmask Wei likes that “smelly lamby” flavor but personally I hate it so I had a great time in xinjiang with the food … aside from the food poisoning I got LOL but it was worth it to try some of the local dishes in the market
As a Chinese, it’s even my first time to see the local rural footage. I live in a rural mountainous countryside in Sichuan province, I feel the flowing unsophisticated loves despite different races and geographic features. Thanks! Good people don’t have a nationality! You will MAGA!😄
Those "butts" are storage of fat and is highly valued in nomadic societies. Its generic name is 'sheep tail fat' and is used in cooking, as home remedies and in beauty products.
Katherine. I first saw your videos some months ago but only been watching more of it lately. I think all your videos are great this one included (very entertaining and informative). But don't be afraid to dig into more than just traveling stuff. I really enjoyed your moving to China video and the one about why Western and Chinese media have misconceptions about each other. You are such a connector of two cultures that by doing more of that you would be even more helpful to undo this growing divide between western and china bias. Keep up the good work. Btw you are such a nerd, but in a good way. : )

Love all your videos. You have a very special talent for storytelling. What impressed me the most is the episode in which you interviewed and presented Wei‘s family members in his hometown. It’s just like a documentary.
This kind of livestock market was (is still?) common in my hometown when I was a kid, but it was for pigs and bulls. The animal smell is very strong, so I have been there for only a couple of times during my childhood.
9:36! K, don't say this to W but I can relate to him sitting looking out aimlessly, tired (either from the day or your constant vlog, lol, but that look and chowing down is classic. I nearly shot it laughing but it was not at him, it was just something that reminded me of his resolve. God bless, (I'm not religious, just Americanized).
Wow, big butt sheep, never in my wildest dreams, did you find a Kim Kardashian sheep? Another great vlog, I guess the people there must have arteriosclerosis as a common ailment with all those lamb and rice.
Don't feel bad about that Katherine. I think that dad is trying to break ice to talk to an expat. Definitely in an unpleasant way though. For people in Xinjiang, they will appreciate your help on showing the good side of xinjiang. especially the big butt sheep, lol.
Enjoyed the entire video, but the intro was classic! Didn't read all 499 comments (at the time of this post) but let me be the one to say Sir Mix-A- Lot must be proud! Thanks.....
Lol, reminded me of Kylie Minogue's or Kardashian's butts🤣🤣🤣! Sorry, cant help it. Enjoy your Kashgar Sunday Market walkabout, n love both your sense of humor. ❤ 🇨🇳
people there love the lamb with some fat, i.e. the fat butt. This Daolang sheep is once sold as high as 12 million CNY. I think they are used for breed rahter than eating.
Hahaha, you seem to notice the "most" interesting things. Now, it's all coming back but I was more amazed on how they slaughtered and skin those lambs with such speed and precision. It was quite scary too.
When I see cute animal videos, such as pigs, cows, sheep, etc., I always think they are cute. So when I eat beef or mutton, I'm actually a little guilty. Man is indeed born guilty.
I don't care what US has been doing, I love Katherine, period And the English on clothes, it is exactly the same with the feeling I got every time I see Chinese characters tattooed on Westerners' body hahaha
Wonderful video as usual. This part of China is undoubtedely amazing and watching your video I was really impressed to see these local livestock markets. I suppose that the economy of this region is mainly based on cattle and sheep breeding. Also the population has physical characteristics different from the classical ones of the Chinese population as in China there are many ethnic groups. Anyway I love the Usa, as they are a great country. Thank you very much for this awesome video and wish you a nice. weekend.
So you can see China is not a homogeneous country after all. Besides ethnic Uyghers you see here, China has white Russians, Tartars, Kirghizstans, Tajikistans
@@tedaspane1493 there more, in 53BC 10,000 Roman soldiers disappeared after a disastrous battle , today they may have found in the DNA of Chinese villagers in the GOBI desert.
Thank you Katherine for this interesting video. I love to see what average local people do everyday. I have never heard Big-Butt sheep before. I am not sure how you get Balanced-diet since they are lacking vegetables?
Man probably just recently became unemployed because of recent US law banning Xinjiang imports categorising all products, including those made by his former company, as considered made by forced labour.
Yes, they're mixed with an extinct Iranic ethnicity, Tocharians, especially those who live in the far west and in oasis cities along the southern rim of the Tarim Basin. Turkic culture being the more dominant one, Turkicised the Tocharians and the mixed descendants. original & unmixed Uyghurs has north Asiatic looks like Mongols and indigenous people of Russia Siberia (Tuvan, Buryatian, Altaian, Sakha, etc.). You can still find them in north of Tarim eg. in Hami, Turpan, Korla,etc.
Yes, They are mixture of east Iranian and east Asian ( ancient Uyghurs, Han and Mongolian). Ancient Uyghurs were not Turks, they live together with Turks and speak similar language. Those Uyghurs together with Han Chinese kicked Turks out of China and east Asian. Turks have to move to west and Turkified lot of Caucasians in central and west Asian including Tajik, Persian, Slovik and Greek.
Such a fun video to watch! Thanks for sharing. Always enjoy watching your videos and journeys. It’s so hilarious to watch the big butts and those T-shirts with English. 😂😂😂

I guess it's because that guy's mandarine is not good, there is misunderstanding between them.
好吃呗
people there love the lamb with some fat, i.e. the fat butt. This Daolang sheep is once sold as high as 12 million CNY. I think they are used for breed rahter than eating.
价格贵的是做种的公羊.
那是做种公羊的，不是买来养或者吃的。
Hahaha, you seem to notice the "most" interesting things. Now, it's all coming back but I was more amazed on how they slaughtered and skin those lambs with such speed and precision. It was quite scary too.
When I see cute animal videos, such as pigs, cows, sheep, etc., I always think they are cute. So when I eat beef or mutton, I'm actually a little guilty. Man is indeed born guilty.
Visiting old market is always fun, especially old Kashgar live stock market, the big but sheep are cute.
I don't care what US has been doing, I love Katherine, period
And the English on clothes, it is exactly the same with the feeling I got every time I see Chinese characters tattooed on Westerners' body hahaha
I made a formal count of the number of mentions of butts in this video, and it tallied to 57, an astounding rate of over 5.4 butts per minute!
Omg thank you for your dedicated research 🥹
哈哈哈笑死
Wonderful video as usual. This part of China is undoubtedely amazing and watching your video I was really impressed to see these local livestock markets. I suppose that the economy of this region is mainly based on cattle and sheep breeding. Also the population has physical characteristics different from the classical ones of the Chinese population as in China there are many ethnic groups. Anyway I love the Usa, as they are a great country. Thank you very much for this awesome video and wish you a nice. weekend.
So you can see China is not a homogeneous country after all. Besides ethnic Uyghers you see here, China has white Russians, Tartars, Kirghizstans, Tajikistans
@@tedaspane1493 Yes, you are right
Glad you liked it and hope you have a nice weekend too😎😎
@@tedaspane1493 there more, in 53BC 10,000 Roman soldiers disappeared after a disastrous battle , today they may have found in the DNA of Chinese villagers in the GOBI desert.
@@jimmychang170 You mean the Greeco Bactrice soldiers? They are in the record of the official ancient histoty decument "han shu" and "hou han shu".
Thank u for showing me this city life of Kashgar
Never underestimate these ordinary farmers, many of them own hundreds or even thousands of sheep, and each of them is a millionaire.
you know too a lot, BBC and CNN will make you be in trouble
对
确实
Good filming , cheerful couple .
说唱男人女朋友的屁股，太传神了😆😆
Thank you for the entertaining look at this market, I do think you should have bought one of those pillows!
@专宰青蛙轮子恨国党 ah, so the description was wrong in the video? Could you tell me the name? I'd love to look up how it's used (or if you have a video)
那个枕头thingy是人家打馕的工具啦哈哈哈哈
Thank you Katherine for this interesting video. I love to see what average local people do everyday. I have never heard Big-Butt sheep before. I am not sure how you get Balanced-diet since they are lacking vegetables?
Ending caption: I'll miss you BBL (not market), especially Wei. 😂👍🏻🙏🏻😍
Great and interesting shoot!
8:45 I think the Dad just telling his kid that Katherine is an American, nothing more lol
他说“美国人不好”。
@@owenhe7513 半开玩笑半认真，就是一种幽默方式而已。当然说美国人不好，他必然是有根据的，对阳离子说，就是开玩笑了。
Poor Katherine. For sure, you are great American. Hahaha😜
Of course, you are the best American. The man must tell his children this. 😂
Man probably just recently became unemployed because of recent US law banning Xinjiang imports categorising all products, including those made by his former company, as considered made by forced labour.
I've been waiting for ages for your new video! what took you so long !🤣🥰
You are a loyal audience.
I noticed many people in Xinjiang look like a mix of caucasians and east asians.
Yes, they're mixed with an extinct Iranic ethnicity, Tocharians, especially those who live in the far west and in oasis cities along the southern rim of the Tarim Basin. Turkic culture being the more dominant one, Turkicised the Tocharians and the mixed descendants. original & unmixed Uyghurs has north Asiatic looks like Mongols and indigenous people of Russia Siberia (Tuvan, Buryatian, Altaian, Sakha, etc.). You can still find them in north of Tarim eg. in Hami, Turpan, Korla,etc.
Yes, They are mixture of east Iranian and east Asian ( ancient Uyghurs, Han and Mongolian). Ancient Uyghurs were not Turks, they live together with Turks and speak similar language. Those Uyghurs together with Han Chinese kicked Turks out of China and east Asian. Turks have to move to west and Turkified lot of Caucasians in central and west Asian including Tajik, Persian, Slovik and Greek.
Love your video like always please make more video about your journey in Xinjiang because it’s such an interesting place to be.
that was a breeding sheep, not for meat. that weird thing to make patterns on naan, that green "kashgar boxing glove" was a tool for baking naan.
Such a fun video to watch! Thanks for sharing. Always enjoy watching your videos and journeys. It’s so hilarious to watch the big butts and those T-shirts with English. 😂😂😂
