Ningxia’s Capital City & Former Capital of the Western Xia Empire
Yinchuan, the capital of Ningxia Hui Autonomous Region, lies to the west of the Yellow River and to the east of Helan Mountain. Yinchuan borders Wuzhong to the east and south, Alxa of Inner Mongolia to the west, Shizuishan to the north and Ordos of Inner Mongolia to the north. Yinchuan is an important commodity grain production base in China and produces high-quality grapes. The cashmere industry is developed, providing more than 70% of the worsted cashmere in Europe and more than 60% of the fine cashmere in China. In Yinchuan, you can feel the strong Islamic customs embodied by the mosques and Halal restaurants. The large scale of relics of the Western Xia Dynasty (1038 - 1227), desolate deserts, spectacular Yellow River and Helan Mountain with imaginative rock paintings all make Yinchuan charming and desirable.
