Eight-Diagram City(Tekesi Bagua City)

Tekes County in Xinjiang is famous for its Bagua layout. The relevant departments canceled the traffic lights on the road in 1996, and Bagua City became a city without traffic lights. It is said that Tekes Bagua City was originally arranged by Qiu Chuji, one of the Seven Sons of Taoism in the Southern Song Dynasty. At that time, Qiu Chuji, a real person from Changchun, went to the Western Regions at the invitation of Genghis Khan. When he passed the Tekes River Valley, he was moved by the mountains and rivers here. So this eight trigrams city was arranged. Bagua City is radially circular, and the street layout is like a maze, with roads interlinked and streets connected. At the same time, Bagua City has strong folk customs, profound historical culture and beautiful natural scenery.
