Xingsheng Alley

Step into Xingsheng Alley and be instantly immersed in Urumqi's old-quarter charm! Uyghur artisan shops dazzle with handwoven carpets and gleaming copperware, while the aroma of baked buns and cumin lamb skewers fills the air. Every corner holds surprises—perhaps a grandpa strumming a rawap, or vibrant ethnic murals splashing color onto walls. Don't miss the alley's homemade yogurt stall, its rich tanginess capturing Xinjiang's authentic flavors in one creamy bite!
