My hometown is a nice place called Urumqi which is the capital of and largest city in the Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region of China.And what's more? It's also the most inland city in the world, the furthest from any oceans.
Though it's far away from oceans,it's not far away from modernization.As you can see from the pictures,it's a metropolis for real.With a population of 2 millions the city as lying on a green blanket at the feet of the Heavenly Mountain.The city is 90% Han, but it also has a significant Uyghur.We have been living together for more than 2000 years.
As one of the most important stations of the old silk road,Urumqi has been the economic center of the west part of China from Han dynasty(2000 years ago).For now,it became the most important financial center of the middle part of Asia.At the same time it developed both agriculturally and industrially recent years. So people here get jobs like businessmen, workers, farmers and so on.Urumqi is also a heaven of entertainment.There are a large number of public places of entertainment.Especially the night life here is super.People went to those clubs and bars to relax themselves after a day's hard working.
I love my hometown not only because it's a super city or it's beautiful,but also it has the fine weather that good for human being to live .It has 4 seasons in a year round.That's interesting to have hot summers in which we wear in mini dresses and cold winters we have to be dressed as fat bears...lol..!
Never knew my hometown is such a lovely city until I got so far away from it.
I miss you my Urumqi.
