		“Hami’s fame comes from the Hami melon,” said the prefecture’s Communist Party chief, Bai Zhijie.
		Hami’s efforts to use whatever it can to sell itself – if only a humble melon – reflects a prosperity-or-bust attitude throughout China’s far west as it struggles to catch up with the booming eastern seaboard.
		The efforts of Hami, with its clean streets and small-town feel, to place itself on the tourist map will, no doubt, be helped by its melons, which are famous across China.

	Xuanzang (Hsüan-tsang) [Internet Encyclopedia of Philosophy]
		Born of a family possessing erudition for generations in Yanshi prefecture of Henan province, Xuanzang, whose lay name was Chenhui, was the youngest of four children.
		Here he spent approximately a month preaching the Buddhist message before being invited to Hami by King Qu Wentai (Ch'u Wen-tai) of Turfan, a pious Buddhist of Chinese extraction.
		His great-grandfather was an official serving as a prefect, his grand-father was appointed as Professor in the National College at the capital, and his father was a Confucianist of the rigid conservative type who gave up office and withdrew into seclusion to escape the political turmoil that gripped China at that time.
