Fig King Garden
无花果王
A giant fig tree several hundred years old, with branches forming a green corridor of several hundred square meters. You can pick and eat the figs fresh in summer.
The Fig King is located in Layke Township, Hotan County. It is a fig tree said to be about 500 years old. Its branches spread and climb outward, supported by frames to form a green corridor of several hundred square meters, and it can produce thousands of figs in a year. The best time to visit is July to September, during the fig ripening season, when you can sample fresh figs in the garden. The garden is small, and a visit takes about 40 minutes. It pairs well with Walnut King Park and Yotkan Ancient City for a half-day trip. Hiring a car or self-driving is more convenient.
