This is really interesting and highlights the extraordinary achievements in China against desertification. We're currently driving during our Xinjiang RV roadtrip in the North of the Taklamakan desert (2nd largest moving desert in the world!) and it's crazy to see the difference in landscape between settled villages - where...

Driving an RV through the Taklamakan Desert during a sand storm is not as fun as it sounds 😏 By the way, the name Taklamakan in Uyghur apparently means "you go in, you don't come out." And... we got in 😅

We completed our 33-day family RV roadtrip through Xinjiang! Which means it's time for a retrospective thread: if you haven't followed our pretty epic journey, here 👇 is one tweet for each day. It was pretty insane: we climbed some of the highest mountains in the world, met the actual last princess of China, drove through the world's toughest desert (and I ended up in the hospital because of it), attended a Uyghur wedding, and survived China's most dangerous road, among many, many other highlights! So, buckle up, here is our Xinjiang RV roadtrip 🧵👇

It's day 30 of our Xinjiang RV roadtrip - one month already! - and we stumbled upon another extraordinary café completely lost in the Taklamakan desert. We're in a place locally known as a "devil city" (魔鬼城, Mo Gui Chen) because it used to be a known hiding spot for thieves and brigands during the time of the silk road: they would hide among the eerily shaped rock formations around here, ambushing caravans before vanishing back into this labyrinth. Which is why this café feels so out of place in this rough environment: they exclusively serve 50 RMB a cup matcha drinks in a modern zen design, the type of place you'd expect to find in a hip tier-1 city but definitely not here. Even the desert is gentrifying in China 😅

Chinese desert control specialist Yin Yuzhen is looking for an American man who donated $5,000 over 20 years ago to support her fight against desertification in the Maowusu Desert in NW China. Today, the samplings she bought with that money have become a forest. "If you can see this video, I would like to extend a special invitation for you to return to China and see how the US dollars you once contributed have helped create this green forest." (Video:CCTV)

This is day 21 of our Xinjiang RV roadtrip and we're now driving the long road between Aksu and Kashgar, alongside the Taklamakan desert and what is probably one China's greatest engineering accomplishments of the past few decades, if not in its entire history. This is strangely not well-known but, starting in 1978, China launched an insanely ambitious project to completely surround this desert - which is larger than the entire country of Italy - with a "Great Green Wall" made of millions of trees and farm fields, stretching over 3,046 km. The whole project was completed in November 2024 so it took a crazy 46 years, older than I am! Why do so? Because the Taklamakan is the world's second-largest moving sand desert and the fastest moving one, known to literally swallow entire kingdoms and cities: the ancient Silk Road kingdom of Loulan vanished under its sands centuries ago, and in modern times the town of Cele (策勒) on its southern edge had to relocate three times as the dunes kept burying it. It also protects the very highway on which we're presently driving: without the "Great Green Wall" this road would be buried under sand every other day - and just couldn't exist as a result. As we're witnessing, it's very real and super impressive: we've been driving for 3 hours now and the wall of green alongside us hasn't stopped for a single kilometer. Three hours of continuous trees and fields separating us from a sea of sand.

If you do not see this today in North, thank the Aravalli Range. Otherwise, a large part of North can turn into desert. The desert is moving fast and we have only one barrier against it. All that nicety nice Lutyens too will cease to exist. Stop the mining. Save Aravalli.

Day 3 of our Xinjiang RV roadtrip: we're standing right at the border between the North of Xinjiang and the South, separated by the massive TianShan mountain range with some of the world's highest mountains (highest peak at 7,439 meters, 24,406 ft). That's something people often don't realize: if you take the top 10 highest mountain ranges in the world, 7 of them are in China and 4 in Xinjiang specifically: Karakoram (which includes K2, the world's 2nd highest peak), Pamir, TianShan (these very mountains we're at the bottom of) and Kunlun. People have this impression of Xinjiang as just deserts but it's actually one of the most mountainous regions on Earth. The TianShan mountains are especially interesting in terms of geography because they literally cut Xinjiang in two - North and South - with completely different climates, ecosystems and cultures on each side. We're currently standing North of the mountains which is the comparatively green and rainy part of Xinjiang. Yes, the dry landscape you see in the video is the *rainy* part of Xinjiang which gives you an idea of just how dry the South is! Our program for the next few days is to drive alongside the mountains until we reach the Ili valley, which is especially famous for its flower fields and lush green landscape - probably the last thing you'd expect to find in Xinjiang - due to its position between mountains that allows it to trap a lot of the region's moisture.

This is again a project of an unfathomable scale that's just been completed in China and barely anyone has heard of it in the rest of the world China has just finished constructing a continuous 3,046-kilometer (1,892-mile) green barrier - made of plants and trees - completely encircling the Taklamakan Desert, the world's second-largest shifting sand desert which is about the size of Germany (!). To put this in perspective, this is like building a living wall from Paris to Istanbul, or from Los Angeles to Chicago – except they built it in one of the world's most inhospitable environments. They spent about 40 years building this "green wall". The final 285 kilometers was completed in 2024 on November 28. They built the "wall" with desert-hardy plants like Populus euphratica (desert poplar), Haloxylon (saxaul), and Tamarix (salt cedar), along with innovative sand-control engineering and solar panel installations. The objective of the project is to contain the desert's expansion and to protect surrounding agricultural areas and cities from sandstorms. Before this project, many towns in the region had to be relocated multiple times due to encroaching sand. For instance, the town of Qira in Xinjiang had to move three times in its history, with sand dunes once approaching as close as 1.5 kilometers from the town center. This is easily one of human history's most ambitious and grandest ecological engineering projects. It's insane when you think about it: completely containing a desert the size of Germany! And it's also insane how little attention this has received globally: sadly we've apparently lost the capacity to be impressed by such a project, let alone have the boldness of vision to conceive of one ourselves. All resulting in the fact that whilst China is out there completing 40-year missions to tame entire deserts, we can barely fix potholes in our roads.

Day 2 of our Xinjiang RV roadtrip and we're surprised by the number of nomads we see as we drive around the countryside. As you can see on the videos we keep seeing people living in Mongol-style yurts raising cattle the ancestral. Presumably, they move around on the grassland with their cattle, moving places based on the season and the availability of grass for their cows, sheeps and horses. That's also China: we tend to only see the ultra-modern big cities but it is also a country where millennia-old ways of life still coexist alongside the modernity. And that's exactly what makes traveling here so interesting! It's also why, incidentally, accusations of China "erasing" traditional cultures are so ridiculously wrong: in very few other countries can you find such traditional ways of life still practiced like this, not as museum exhibits but simply as the way people have always been living. And, by the way, it's something we've seen all over China, not only in Xinjiang. For instance in our previous RV trip in Dongbei, on the border with Siberia we spent the night in the forest with Ewengkis, a nomadic reindeer-raising ethnic minority ( and in the RV roadtrip prior to that we stayed with Tibetans in their traditional campsite in Qinghai (

I finished main story in Crimson Desert… but the actual “Crimson Desert” area is barely used🤔 What if the current game is just a prologue, and the real game drops later as DLC? Feels like: 👉 Current version = prologue 👉 Future update/DLC = real game in Crimson Desert Very MMO-style structure (Story = tutorial, Endgame = actual content) Like in Path of Exile Acts 1 – 10 = Tutorial = now Endgame mapping = Actual Game = future DLC This WAS originally an MMORPG after all

Status update: it's day 7 of our Xinjiang RV roadtrip and we're arriving in Khorgos, a city right on the border with Kazakhstan. And in fact we'll go to Kazakhstan later this afternoon. You can see a video of us arriving in the city 👇- it's a tier-4 city with less than 100k inhabitants (meaning very small by Chinese standards) but, less most Chinese cities these days, it looks very modern and developed.

This is genuinely unexpected: when driving in the middle of the Xinjiang countryside, we just stumbled upon what's one of the coolest cafés I've ever seen. Check the video and tell me this place isn't pretty cool! We're in a place called "ken si wa te" (肯瓦斯特) where there's a man-made water reservoir (created by a dam downstream). They've created a small attraction around this reservoir, including this café, a cable car, a glass bridge, etc. This is the first day of our family RV roadtrip in Xinjiang and looks like we've found the perfect spot to spend the night!

Ok, maybe this is me being nerdy but I found this seriously cool! We're on day 33 of our Xinjiang RV roadtrip and today we're going through one of China's most impressive recent engineering accomplishments: the longest highway tunnel in the world, almost 23km long, going underneath the TianShan mountains (called the "Tianshan Shengli Tunnel"). It opened in December last year. What's truly cool is that we managed to visit the tunnel command center, from which they monitor the traffic in the tunnel in real time. It's a FAR more sophisticated operation that I expected: look at this 👇, they monitor each individual car and truck in real time on a massive screen, and have advanced AI systems surface any issue the very second it arises. Without a doubt the single most high-tech tunnel monitoring system in the world. This tunnel is actually genuinely transformational for Xinjiang, probably the single most transformational infrastructure project in the region this millennia (so far): the big issue here is that you have the TianShan mountains, some of the highest mountains in the world (over 7000m high) that literally divide the region in 2 between North and South Xinjiang. Before the tunnel the only way people could travel between North and South (or vice versa) was through small perilous roads through the mountains, or by driving around the mountains - in either case a massive (and often dangerous) journey that would take many hours. The tunnel cuts it down to... just 20 minutes! The highway and tunnel cost an absolute fortune to build - some 40 billion yuan - and there's no way they're ever going to get it back from toll fees alone. But we asked the staff here and they said that when you consider the impact it'll have on Xinjiang's economy as a whole, it's not even close. And that's kind of the whole Chinese infrastructure philosophy in a nutshell: infrastructure is seen as a catalyst, you measure the return across the entire region for the next 50 years.

To combat desertification, China has encircled #Taklimakan #Desert with a sand-blocking green belt! This green development is a crucial part of the Three North Shelter Forest Program (TNSFP), which has the ultimate goal of controlling desertification in China's northwest, north and western northeast regions. TNSFP began in 1978 and will end in 2050, spanning 73 years. Starting from 2023, China has launched a decisive battle across three regions which will be continuously implemented over the next decade.

Absolutely unreal: we got to meet her, the last princess of China, Uyghur princess Reyanamu Dawut (热亚南木·达吾提), the widow of the 12th and last hereditary Uyghur Prince of Kuqa! As mentioned in my post last night (see quoted post 👇), we went back to the palace first thing in the morning. And, unexpectedly, as you can see on the video, we discovered in a palace room that the princess was there, posing for photos with visitors 😳 Not in a million years would we have expected to meet royalty during our Xinjiang RV roadtrip but that's traveling in China for you: every single day finds a way to surprise you! (apologies for the bad quality of the second video, one of her staffers was holding my phone in portrait and then flipped it to landscape during the video) (and yes, I know Uyghurs hats don't suit me at all 😅)

Ok, THIS is probably the most beautiful place we've seen in our Xinjiang RV roadtrip so far: it's so stunning it looks otherworldly, like we've stepped on another planet. It's now day 25 of our roadtrip and we're next to a lake called bai sha hu (白沙湖, literally "white sand lake") not far from the border with Tajikistan, in one of the rare areas in Xinjiang which access is restricted: foreigners and Chinese alike need a special permit to come here because it's a sensitive border area (the permit is easy to obtain). We're surrounded by some of the highest mountains in the world, including the famous Muztagh Ata (慕士塔格峰), 7,546m - the so-called "Father of Ice Mountains." And, as you can see in the video, while the rest of Xinjiang is mostly cows and sheeps, we're now deep in yak territory 😊

It's day 26 of our Xinjiang RV roadtrip and today it looks like we're on a completely different planet: we got up first thing in the morning to ride horses to the "devil's eyes", which are craters of extinct volcanoes deep in the Pamir plateau, at the bottom of the "eighteen arhats" snow peaks. It's called the "devil's eyes" because... well, look at the first video and it'll be obvious to you. Amazingly we're all alone here this morning - with the local Kyrgyz inhabitants - because it's early in the morning and because it's one of the remotest corners of China. Look at this place and tell me this isn't one of the most extraordinarily beautiful landscape on Earth 👇

The future of warfare. "Anyone who's making contact with the enemy is going to have superhuman augmented vision that allows them to never miss anything. You have extraordinary superhuman hearing." "You're able to mark targets in the environment without projecting anything in the environment. You can seamlessly see in your heads-up display where all of your friends are, where all of the innocents and noncombatants are, and have that all just seamlessly presented to you as if you're Superman. You can see through walls. You can see through night. You can see through fog. You are Superman." Palmer Luckey
