Where to stay in Urumqi

This part of the journey is from Kashi towards Pakistan southwest bound. Lots of snow peaked mountains and lakes. Very scenic. An unexplored part of China mostly as it is nearly to Tajikistan and Pakistan rather than major cities in China.

I especially enjoyed the public market, would rcommend it highly. Finding a shop where I could buy smething for lunch took a lot of patience, as did locating a place to sit down to eat it, but well worth the wait.

3/5 - Okay

Too much policing. Everywhere security points. It gives feeling of a warzone to otherwise nice peaceful place. People are nice. I was impressed by building and how clean and beautiful was city.
