Question: What are the do's and don'ts when traveling in Xinjiang?
Answer: Xinjiang is a region where several ethnic groups exist. All of these ethnic groups
are devout followers of Islam. All travelers should respect their beliefs. People should not
eat pork, dog's, donkey's or mule's meat in Muslim restaurants or even talk about it. This
will cause (great) trouble. Other musts to be observed are the following: You should not
enter Mosques without being properly dressed; Women or ladies are not allowed to enter some
mosques in the south of Xinjiang; and, travelers should not gaze at Uigur or their staff in
markets without buying anything.
