Urumqi


 
Urumqi is the capital of the Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region and the most 'inland' city in the world. With a population of two million gaily-dressed ethnic inhabitants, the city is likened to a piece of emerald embedded at the foot of the Tianshan Mountains. It lies in the lofty ice-capped Bogdan Peak and vast Salt Lake in the east, in the rolling Southern pine-covered hill, a well-known scenic district, in the south, and in the alternating fields and sand dunes of Zunggar Basin in the Northwest.

The temperature in Urumqi widely ranges between day and night as it belongs to the semi-arid climate of middle continental temperate zone. The climate is extremely arid due to long period of sunlight and precipitation bare. It has shorter spring and autumn, and longer winter and summer. May to October is the golden season for traveling to Urumqi, when flowers are in full bloom and the fruits, like melons, are ripe with its fragrance. Here we should indicate that there are two hours time difference between Xinjiang and Beijing.
