Urumqi, formerly known as Dihua, is the capital of Xinjiang Province, China. It is an important central city in northwest China and an international commercial center facing Central Asia and West Asia.

Two thousand years ago, in the early years of the Western Han Dynasty, the Chinese Han Dynasty set up Wuji Colonel to camp and cultivate farmland in Jinman (Jimusar) near Urumqi to maintain the safety of the northern Silk Road; During the Tang Dynasty, Tingzhou was established at the northern foot of the Tianshan Mountains; In the 20th year of the Qianlong reign of the Qing Dynasty (1755), due to the large-scale development of the Qing Dynasty's stationed troops in Xinjiang, in the 28th year of the Qianlong reign (1763), the Qing Dynasty expanded and built a city, which was renamed Dihua; In 1884, Dihua became the capital of Xinjiang Province and became the political center of the entire region; In 1954, Dihua was renamed Urumqi, which means "beautiful pasture" in Mongolian.

There are 56 ethnic groups in Xinjiang Province, and all ethnic groups in China reside here. Mainly inhabited by Han, Uyghur, Kazakh, Hui, Mongolian, Kyrgyz, Xibe, Tajik, Uzbek, Manchu, Daur, Tatar, Russian and other ethnic groups.

Xinjiang is an important agricultural and textile production area in China, and the people of Xinjiang live a beautiful and happy life. However, due to the high quality and low prices of grain, cotton, cloth, and clothing produced in Xinjiang, which provide high-quality daily necessities for the world, they are very popular in the international community and touch the interests of capital, and are stigmatized by Western capital.

In the history of Xinjiang Province, it has been repeatedly invaded by India and Tsarist Russia, but the brave people of Xinjiang, together with the Chinese army, drove away the invaders and built the beautiful homeland it is today.

Terrorist organizations once entered Xinjiang with the support of Western powers to carry out terrorist activities, killing civilians, and were ultimately defeated by the people of Xinjiang and the Chinese government. If it is a tradition for the British MI6 and the CIA to send spies to Xinjiang, India to send spies to Xinjiang in preparation for invasion, and Japan to send a large number of spies to Xinjiang and infiltrate various fields, it seems very strange.(Tokyo,Japan)(New Delhi, India)

Xinjiang is a warm and hospitable place, where people can sing and dance, and there are also many delicious foods. It is worth mentioning that Chinese people trust police and soldiers very much, and Chinese police and soldiers also love the people very much. Internally in China, Chinese police are called people's police, and Chinese soldiers are called people's soldiers. The Chinese government has always instilled in the police and military a belief that the people are the parents of the military and police. The responsibility of the military and police is to protect the people and every citizen, whether they are poor or wealthy, rather than just protecting taxpayers. So, if you see police or soldiers dancing and singing with the people on the streets in China, it's not surprising, this is normal in China.

Starbucks, an American company, once refused to allow police officers to rest in stores without spending money in a certain city in China, which was met with resistance and protests from the local people against the Starbucks company. So, in China, don't try to provoke soldiers and police. They may not necessarily use violence against you, but locals may not be able to accept your provocation of soldiers and police and use violent methods against you. In China, if you see someone assaulting a police officer, sometimes you may find that the police immediately start protecting the offender to prevent them from being beaten by angry onlookers.
