It's safe if you aren't a Han settler or police officer.

Hi Ammia, I've been living in Urumqi for a couple of months. The streets are quite calm and I've never seen any violence of any sort during my time here. The big problem doesn't seem to be violence, but theft: pickpockets are a problem.

I can't say very much for the rest of the province, pesonally I'd be a little more cautious going to the south of Xinjiang and wouldn't travel alone.

The landscape, at least in the north, is really beautiful. I can't wait to get some time to see more of XInjiang.

A:It happened to me, once ... in 2014 or 15 ... Plane from RP city (Tianjin) had a delay and I came to the exit (Luohu) some 7 hours after the RP expiration day.I had an excuse, but still I was put in a side office for some 3h and then cops had a short talk with '.. and make sure, it will never happened again! ..' and I was let go without anything on my record. At least, at new Z visa reentry nobody ever mentioned anything about delayed exit. However, I had a bad feeling at following Z visa application ...It's wiser to exit at least a day ahead of the RP expiration day. -- icnif77
