Happy Wall Wednesday

In the ‘old city’ reconstruction in Kashgar, in the remote Taklamakan Desert of China, the walls in one set of alleys are completely covered with carpets , exposed to the rain, as here, and the weather. It is bizarre but very interesting and attractive to roam through. And most colourful. Carpet weaving is one of the traditional crafts of the region. The coloured doors lead into residential housing.
Happy midweek from summer in Australia.

How strange............the carpets don't look very beautiful soaking wet and covered in mould...........and I wouldn't have thought it made good advertising.

Nevertheless it's very photogenic and quite colourful. Very nicely captured Diana.

Interesante fotografía de calle sinuosa que serpentea hacia el fondo. Estoy sin Wifi desde la mañana del lunes, esperando reparación para poder comunicarme. Aquí lo hago por teléfono con datos móviles, pero siempre usé ordenador y por smartphone no me arreglo.
