She shared in a separate Facebook post on Nov 1 that besides buying jade, she also bought cotton, camel wool blankets and enough camel milk for half a year in the end.<\/p>\n
Yi Fong added she would have left immediately or made a report to authorities if the same situation happened in other parts of China, but because Xinjiang is so big and remote, she endured it.<\/p>\n
In the same post, she also shared there were issues with the luxury package she purchased.<\/p>\n
She recalled: “The service didn’t match the purchase description. The group was supposed to have a maximum of 12 people, but I saw over 20! They also promised a six-seater luxury minivan and it turned out to be a 20-seater bus!”<\/p>\n
Yi Fong shared in her initial post that another problem she faced was the toilets, which were scarce because they are mostly on the highway with few rest stops.<\/p>\n
She wrote: “When we get to a rest stop, the queues [for the toilets] are longer than the queue at the amusement park, and the smell was unbearable.<\/p>\n
“But we couldn’t not use it, so the most memorable thing about Southern Xinjiang is unfortunately the toilet.”<\/p>\n
Yi Fong said she now has reservations about going to Northern Xinjiang but advised her followers to get a reliable recommendation if they plan to visit.<\/p>\n
