Kangju Alley

Step into Kangju Alley to experience Urumqi's most authentic local vibe. This lively lane is packed with Uyghur-style shops, where the air smells of freshly baked samsa and cumin. Watch artisans hammering copperware on the roadside, their rhythmic clinks composing an urban symphony. Don't miss the third-generation handmade ice cream stall at the alley's end – its creamy texture made with Xinjiang milk will blow your mind!
