Over the past 70 years since the establishment of the Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region, under the guidance of the new era's strategy for governing Xinjiang, the people of all ethnic groups in Xinjiang have united as one and forged ahead, writing a magnificent chapter in economic and social development.

As the capital city of Xinjiang, Urumqi has made great strides forward, achieving historic accomplishments in all aspects of its development. The city's appearance has changed dramatically, its industrial economy is thriving, its high-quality development is progressing steadily, and it has achieved fruitful results in social welfare and people's well-being, with the people's sense of happiness increasing daily.

The region's GDP has jumped from 178 million yuan in 1955 to 450.216 billion yuan in 2024; the built-up area has grown from less than 20 square kilometers to 545 square kilometers; and the industrial added value has increased from 34.98 million yuan in 1955 to 110.06 billion yuan in 2024… These impressive figures bear witness to the tremendous changes and historic progress Urumqi has made.

Currently, Urumqi has formed two industries worth over 100 billion yuan each (modern logistics and tourism), four industries worth over 50 billion yuan each (chemicals, new materials, financial services, and housing and transportation), and eight industries worth over 10 billion yuan each (equipment manufacturing, green food, and modern commerce), providing strong support for high-quality development.

Walking through Urumqi, one sees bustling construction sites, roaring workshops, rapidly developing industrial parks, and thriving industrial bases… everywhere resonates with the resounding voice of Urumqi's relentless progress.
