This few days I cannot access a lot of chinese website. I see no picture here. I can access Baidu, but extremely slow.Amazing Yili River Valley in Xinjiang, CHINA
Yili River Valley is located in China's Yili Kazak Autonomous Prefecture, northwestern part of Xinjiang, China. It borders Russia and Mongolia in the northeast, and connects Changji Hui Autonomous Prefecture and Bayinguoleng Mongol Autonomous Prefecture in the southeast. After May each year, lavenders begin to blossom almost everywhere around the valley and turn the place into a sea of purple.[Photo/bbs.fengniao]
China has many paradise like places though you never know by reading western news.

Xinjiang economy expands 10 percent
January 27, 2015
The economy of China's Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region grew by 10 percent in 2014, faster than the national average of 7.4 percent, the local statistics bureau said on Tuesday.
The growth rate was "not easy to achieve", said Wang Zhongshan, chief of the statistics bureau, as Xinjiang was under the pressure of oil, steel and cement price fluctuations.
Wang said the regional government had managed to stabilize growth, continue reform measures and adjust administrative structure.
The average disposable income of Xinjiang residents rose 11.5 percent and its fiscal revenue increased 9.9 percent.
The bureau said the autonomous region's economy would still have to deal with insufficient demand and falling industrial profits.

With HSR and the Silk Road Initiative, Xinjiang is going to be one of the hubs of Central Asian trade.
Xinjiang’s first high-speed rail gets Silk Road project going
The first high-speed rail in Northwest China's Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region began operating on Sunday, slashing travel time between the regional capital of Urumqi and the eastern city of Hami by half to three hours. This comes as China said it will promote travel to countries along the Silk Road in 2015.
The 530-kilometer rail line is designed to run at speeds of over 200 kilometers per hour and is part of the 1,776-kilometer Lanxin high-speed railway linking Urumqi with Lanzhou, capital of the northwestern province of Gansu, which will be put into service by the end of this year.
The railway crosses a vast expanse of the Gobi Desert and windy areas. It will be connected further with China's high-speed rail network.
The Xinjiang railway bureau said a high-speed railway connecting Lanzhou and Beijing is now under construction and expected to be completed by 2017, which will reduce travel time between Urumqi and Beijing from the current 41 hours to 16 hours.
As the only railway connecting Xinjiang with other provincial regions, the original Lanxin track has a designed transport capacity of only about 75 million tons per year, which is far below the increasing demands of freight and passengers.
The new line, however, will unleash the region's transportation capacity by handling most passenger travel and enabling the old line to focus on freight transport.
Du Jiang, the deputy director of the China National Tourism Administration, said the decision to promote travel was made against the backdrop of the Silk Road Economic Belt and the 21st Century Maritime Silk Road initiatives which were proposed by China to boost regional economic and infrastructure cooperation, as well as people-to-people exchange in Asia.

当天，在《小苹果》集体舞蹈比赛中，参赛队有学生、宗教人士、妇女、干部职工等表演队，参赛选手用优美的舞姿展示现代农民的风采，唱响了自觉维护民族团结、抵制非法极端宗教的的主旋律。同时，各参赛代表队在比赛前，还自编自演的小品、相声、麦西来甫、民族舞蹈等文艺节目，吸引周边上千名群众观看了比赛。 “听说乡上要举办舞蹈比赛，村民们报名非常积极踊跃。”罕南力克镇塔瓦克其村支部书记艾买尔江·买海提说，参加《小苹果》集体舞蹈比赛不仅丰富了村民的业余文化生活，也让村民在寓教于乐中接受“去极端化”宣教教育。 (Xinhua)
