Changji has an abundance of sights to see. You’ll no doubt want to check off the top attractions, but you also won’t want to miss the nearby desert landscapes that Changji Hui Autonomous Prefecture is renowned for. We recommend renting something that will take you from urban outings to leisurely road trips, like a standard car. Pick up your ride from Urumqi Airport (URC-Diwopu Intl.), drive the 25 miles to the downtown area, and explore till your heart’s content. When you’ve had enough, venture out of the city limits and spend some time in Mother Nature. Just remember to send us a few postcards along the way.
