If Hami is sweet melons' city, Turpan is for grapes. It has an eight-metre valley named Bulayiq with grapes growing in abundance.

The major species is 13 categories of seedless grapes, of which the sugar content is 20 percent to 24 percent, higher than those in the rest of the world. That's the result of plenty of sunlight and the meltwater form the nearby snow mountain.
