Xinjiang Autonomous Region Museum in Urumqi — view 2
The Xinjiang Autonomous Region Museum is a prominent cultural institution in Urumqi, showcasing the rich heritage of the diverse ethnic groups in the region. Opened in 2010, the museum spans several exhibition halls that display artifacts from the prehistoric era to modern times, including ancient textiles, jade carvings, and the preserved mummies of the Taklamakan desert. Allocate a couple of hours to explore the extensive collections. The museum is best visited in the morning when it is less crowded. It's located near the city's central shopping area, making it convenient to pair with a stroll through local markets afterward. The combination of history and contemporary life offers a unique insight into Xinjiang's complex identity.
