2-Star Hotels in Urumqi

As the capital of Xinjiang, this city is your gateway to the Silk Road and the vast landscapes of China’s far west. The main draw is its unique cultural fusion, best experienced at the Xinjiang International Grand Bazaar, where you can sample hand-pulled laghman noodles and browse for intricate carpets. For a panoramic view of the city backed by the distant Tianshan Mountains, take a trip up to the Hongshan Park pagoda. It’s a place where Uyghur, Han, and Kazakh influences create a distinct urban energy unlike anywhere else in the country.
