The naan in Xinjiang is very delicious. I went to a baked naan stall on the first day I arrived in Urumqi. The baked naan here is sold in specialty stores. There are many varieties of naan, usually 2 yuan each. There are also baked buns, 3 yuan each, which have a bit of mutton smell. But baked naan is delicious and affordable. You can take it with you on the road without worrying about it going bad. You can use it to satisfy your hunger at any time. It’s very satisfying.

As the saying goes, people are shaped by their environment. Just as northerners love noodles and southerners love rice, most Xinjiang people love naan (Uyghur for baked flatbread). Archaeological research shows that Xinjiang residents knew how to bake naan as early as 1,000 years ago. Because Xinjiang is vast and sparsely populated with a dry climate, naan, which is easy to carry and has a long shelf life, has become the preferred dry food for Xinjiang people to use at home and carry when going out. There are dozens of varieties of Xinjiang naan, but in recent years, only Abula's naan has frequently appeared in the media and has become famous. The reason why Abula's naan is so popular with the media is mainly because of its baked The annual "Wuhan Trade Fair" is hosted by the People's Government of the Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region. In 2001, news broke at the "Wuhan Trade Fair" that Darman Abula, who bakes naan, rented a stall to sell naan at the "Wuhan Trade Fair"! When the news came out, everyone was shocked. For ethnic minorities in Xinjiang, naan is just like steamed bread and rice for Han people, which is a very common mass food. No one has ever thought that it has any connection with the grand and solemn "Wuhan Trade Fair". Besides, most of the participants in the "Wuhan Trade Fair" are state-owned, collective enterprise groups or powerful private companies, and there are almost no self-employed individuals. 　

The naan in Abra is as important as dumplings for us northerners. There are many styles of naan here, and the way to make it is also very simple. You don’t need to turn it over or watch it in the naan pit. It will be baked in half an hour. When eating, blow off the dust on the surface, it tastes good!

The queue is at least 1.5 hours. I bought naan in Kuche before, and it became hard after a few days. The naan in this shop is still soft after a few days!! It is said that naan is good for the stomach. The rose-flavored naan is not freshly baked, so you don’t need to queue. You can buy a gift box for 5 and take it home as a gift or eat it yourself.

These are two famous naan shops. It is said that Han Chinese friends like to queue up to eat them. I also think that I should eat this kind of naan, so I queued up to try it. The local naan is harder, while this one is softer. Buy a few and take them back as local specialties.
