Xinjiang's Changji welcomes visitors with festive Spring Festival flavors

Nearby, an intangible cultural heritage food that includes nine dishes offers a more elaborate dining experience. Prepared through steaming, it features balanced meat and vegetable combinations, each with a distinct flavor.

Ma Xuecai, the inheritor of the recipe, keeps his restaurant open throughout Spring Festival. "Family bookings have surged," he said. Gift boxes of the dish are now available.
