Yes, it's Ottoman Turkish.

I am a Turk, btw.

Where did you get this? Etsy? Ebay?

[–] [email protected] 17 points 3 months ago (1 children)

I found in a antique shop, while visiting Xi'an, China.

Were you just there?

I'm going in 2025.

Yes, just came back. Xi'an is very beautiful. Also, lots of Muslims there so finding halal food wasn't a problem. And a lot of ancient places to explore

I mean, I don't "plan" to go to Xi'an so far, but I've thought of it.

I want to go to Xinjiang.

I plan to go to Xi'an. Is that in Xinjiang?

[–] [email protected] 9 points 3 months ago (1 children)

More to the east. It's the traditional eastern terminus of the silk road, also often served as capital during history.

Oho, nice

I should go there, but I want to prioritize Chongqing.

Good news! They're a 6 hour trip from one another on high speed rail, with one change.

Not too shabby of a time... I might take it!
