Introduction to Aksu, Xinjiang, China

Aksu is located in the western part of Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region of China, at the southern foot of Tianshan Mountain and the northern edge of Tarim Basin, which is an important hub of the ancient Silk Road. With a temperate continental climate, four distinct seasons, and abundant light, the region produces high-quality apples, jujubes, and cotton, and is known as the "land of fruits and melons". Aksu City is the political, economic and cultural center of the region, and has the characteristics of multi-ethnic settlement, with Uyghurs and Han Chinese living in harmony. The city is rich in natural landscapes, such as the mysterious Grand Canyon of Tianshan Mountain and the edge of Taklamakan Desert, as well as historical and cultural sites, such as the Kizil Thousand Buddha Caves (in the neighboring areas). In recent years, relying on the "One Belt, One Road" initiative, Aksu has seen rapid development in agriculture, energy and tourism, becoming an important growth pole in Xinjiang.
