After spending a few days in Xinjiang's capital of Urumqi, we decided to check out the downtown area and see what everyday life looked like here. Uruqmi is located in the north west part of China and happens to be the largest city in Central Asia. We were shocked to see the modern side of Xinjiang and would recommend adding this to your list of things to do in Urumqi, China.
