Introduction to Turpan, China
Turpan, or Turfan, is an oasis city in the Xinjiang Region of western China. Xinjiang’s capital, Urumqi, is about 160kms from Turpan. Although Turpan receives little annual rainfall it was an important stopover on the ancient Silk Road due to the water in its oasis. The oasis water was provided by a complicated well system that collected water from the adjacent mountain ranges. Due to harsh summers and winters hotels in Turpan often feature a courtyard shaded by grape-vines. There is a choice of Turpan hotels ranging from small family run establishments catering for backpackers to three-star hotels. The city centre has several Turpan hotel options, mainly near the Bazaar (market) and the long distance bus station. Many of Turpan’s streets are shaded by trellises. City attractions are the Bazaar, museums and the Emin Minaret. A day trip to the magnificent Bezeklik Thousand Buddha Caves with its religious murals, the ancient ruins of Gaochang, the Taklamakan Desert and the Flaming Mountains can be arranged with many of the Turpan hotels.other spellings: turpan hote, turpan hotles, tupan hotell, turpun otel, turpanhotels
