Urumqi, Xinjiang: Exploring Uyghur Culture & Tianchi Lake
Our First Time in URUMQI, CHINA 🇨🇳 Exploring Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region
In this new series, we’re diving into Urumqi, the heart of the Uyghur Autonomous Region in China. With so much conflicting information about this part of China, we’re here to find out what it’s really like. Is it more like Central Asia, where we just were, or does it have more of a Chinese influence? Join us as we experience the rich Uyghur culture, from tasting incredible local dishes to wandering through lively bazaars, local markets, and exploring the stunning Tianchi Lake, a breathtaking alpine lake just outside the city.
