Is the wind and sand blowing hard in Xinjiang?
Big. The reason why Xinjiang has strong wind and sand is because of the desert terrain in Xinjiang. Most of the areas have winds of magnitude 5 to 6, and the barren mountains and Gobi have strong wind and sand. Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region, referred to as "Xin", has the capital city of Urumqi. Located in northwest China, in the hinterland of the Eurasian continent, with an area of 1.6649 million square kilometers, it is the largest provincial administrative region in China by land area.
