Xinjiang has long been a region characterized by a diverse population, with various ethnicities coexisting and evolving over time. Each ethnic group has developed architectural spaces in accordance with their distinct ways of life and cultural preferences. Examining the residences of the Kazakh ethnic group in the Ili region provides a case in point. These dwellings are purposefully designed by the Kazakh people to align with their methods of production and lifestyle, intricately shaped by the influences and limitations imposed by the local geography. These residences demonstrate a notable level of adaptability and practicality. The distinctive decorative elements found in Kazakh ethnic residences serve as visual expressions of the Kazakh cultural legacy. Modified and refined to suit the constraints of the geographical surroundings, these homes not only showcase a strong sense of ethnic identity but also mirror the dynamic cultural nuances intrinsic to the Kazakh ethnic group.
