In China, there is a place which is the only place where white people gather in our country! This place straddles three kingdoms and is known as the most awesome county in China.

Curious friends may ask, where exactly is this place in China? What different scenery are there? With these questions and curiosity, let’s talk about the things about Taxkorgan Tajik Autonomous County today. Taxkorgan Tajik Autonomous County, which belongs to Kashgar Prefecture, Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region, is located in the southwest of Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region. It is connected to Tajikistan, Afghanistan and Pakistan in the northwest, southwest and south respectively, to Yecheng County and Shache County in the southeast and east, and to Akto County in the north. Taxkorgan, which means "Stone City" in Uyghur, is named after the ancient stone castle in the north of the city. The K2 Peak in the territory is 8,611 meters above sea level and is the second highest peak in the world. Not only that, it is also particularly worth mentioning that Taxkorgan Tajik Autonomous County is the only place where white people gather in our country! The Tajiks are authentic Caucasians and the only Caucasians in our country.
