By Taxi
We recommend tourists and travelers take taxis to avoid crowds and pickpockets. Every taxi is metered. Santana, Jetta and Citroen ZX cost 6 Yuan for the first 2 km (about 1.2 miles) and 1.3 Yuan for every extra km. Most journeys around town are 10 to 15 Yuan.

By Bus
Urumqi buses go serve the commercial center, residential areas, villages and tourist destinations. The bus service has approximately 100 routes and uses 2000 vehicles. Buses run from 8:00 to 22:00 every day. Ticket prices are between 1 and 2 Yuan.

Car Rental (with driver)
With a well arranged travel plan, renting a car to visit attractions in or around Urumqi can be a convenient and time-saving choice compared to traveling by bus. We suggest that you use a reliable agency to find a rental car with a local driver in Urumqi.
