Urumqi One-Day Tour Guide

Today, we bring you a super practical guide for a one-day tour of Urumqi, allowing you to experience the city in depth within a short period. Pack your bags and let's embark on a spontaneous journey!🚀 🔥[One-Day Tour Route] 1️⃣ Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region Museum At 10:00 AM, we'll first arrive at the Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region Museum. Admission is free, but remember to book 1–3 days in advance! The museum boasts a rich collection, covering everything from history and culture to ancient artifacts and ethnic customs, making it an excellent window into Xinjiang. 2️⃣ Hotan Erjie Consulate Lane After visiting the museum, are you feeling a little hungry? Don't worry, we'll head to Hotan Erjie Consulate Lane, a food paradise in Urumqi! From *kaobaozi* (baked buns) to fig *plov* (pilaf)... 3️⃣ International Grand Bazaar Here, you'll find not only a dazzling array of unique goods but also rich folk performances, making it the perfect choice for experiencing Xinjiang's unique charm. You can buy some souvenirs to take home for your family and friends! 4️⃣ Jinquan Mall This is a shopping paradise for locals, offering a wide variety of goods at affordable prices. Whether you're looking for unique trinkets or stylish clothing, you'll find it all here. 5️⃣ Hongshan Park In the evening, we'll arrive at Hongshan Park. With its lush greenery and beautiful scenery, it's known as Urumqi's "urban oasis." Ascend to the top of the mountain to overlook the entire city and enjoy the tranquility and comfort. 🔔 Important Notes - Urumqi has two museums: the Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region Museum and the Urumqi Museum. Please confirm which one you want to visit when booking. - Museum reservations are required in advance and can be made through the official website or WeChat official account. 🌈Food Recommendations: 🍚 Nurman Fig *Plov* Fast Food We highly recommend you try their signature lamb *plov*, especially the one with figs and carrots. The rice is slender, and the lamb is tender and chewy. 🐄 Sulayman Roasted Lamb Intestine This barbecue restaurant has gained popularity through word of mouth! They offer a wide variety of meats, many of which we haven't seen before, making it a truly educational experience! Each skewer is only CNY 3, an incredibly affordable price. Remember to pair it with yellow noodles for an unforgettable taste! 🥐 *Kaobaozi* King If this place wasn't on the must-try list, I might have missed it!🔥 These *kaobaozi* are CNY 5 each, with a crispy crust and a filling of juicy lamb. Even when full, you can't resist having another one; they're incredibly delicious!👭 🐔 Five Grains Worm Chicken The environment is average, but the food is truly amazing, especially their signature worm chicken. The chicken is firm and elastic, with a unique aroma, completely different from ordinary chicken. That concludes our Urumqi one-day tour guide! We hope this guide helps you plan your trip and enjoy your travels. If you have any other questions or need more assistance, feel free to leave a comment below!
