Introducing Tǎchéng
In a lonely corner of northwestern Xīnjiāng, Tǎchéng is a relatively obscure border crossing into neighbouring Kazakhstan. Now and then the gates are closed; if you do make it here and can’t get through, don’t despair. Tǎchéng is a pleasant enough place to relax before catching a bus south to Ālāshānkǒu or north to Jímǔnǎi.
