Abstract
 The purpose of this study was to understand the living conditions of the three-generation Uyghur Tribe living in urban areas and rural areas centered on the Kashgar district and to clarify how the lifestyle of the Uyghur Tribe is changing viewed from the aspects of the three generations' clothing, food, housing, daily life, religion, etc., in both areas. The research method was a questionnaire survey given to the three generations comprising 5th grade tribal elementary school students and the parents and grandparents of the students. It covered items relating to the dwelling life, eating habits, clothing, daily life and religion of the three generations in both areas, and we gained an understanding of the present conditions thereof. Also, in order to define the changes to these, we established standards to deem them "is maintained", "is about half maintained", or "isn't maintained", and we classified them into 11 patterns from a to k.
