Topic Reading-Vol.1631-9/28/2016

Dear MEL Topic Readers,
A city without traffic lights
The city doesn’t look modern at all. Rather, it looks either very ancient or futuristic. There aren’t any tall buildings or highways. It spreads out with eight main roads from the central square in a very organized fashion, forming an octagonal shape.
One distinctly unique feature of this remote city in Northwest China's Xinjiang Uygur autonomous region is there are no traffic lights. Is that because there aren’t so many cars on the roads, people drive so decently that there is no need for traffic control, or there is no electricity or budget to lit traffic lights?
Enjoy reading and seeing the photos of this remote but well-organized city in Uygur.
