Exploring the Pamir Plateau The only county in China with a Caucasian population On the Pamir Plateau, there is a county town with an average altitude of over 4000 meters, where China's only Caucasian population resides. It is called Tashkurgan, also known as Taxkorgan County. This place borders Afghanistan, Pakistan, and Tajikistan, and has been rated by National Geographic as the most extraordinary county town. It is like a dazzling pearl set upon the Pamir Plateau. Here, there are snow-capped mountains welcoming the wind, the Tian Ge Pasture with herds of cattle and sheep, the mysterious and majestic Kunlun Mountain area, and the Pamir Plateau, known as the ancestor of mountains and the source of rivers. Within the territory of Taxkorgan, there are 4 peaks over 8000 meters high, accounting for one-third of the world's total, and their majestic and spectacular sights are breathtaking. The Karakoram Highway, like a giant dragon, winds through this magical land, with over 100 peaks exceeding 7000 meters in altitude along the way. Glacial meltwater nourishes the lush grasslands, creating a paradise for wild animals and providing pastures essential for the survival of nomadic peoples. The Tajik people, known as the 'People above the Clouds,' not only attract attention with their unique culture and traditions but also shoulder the important mission of guarding the frontier, closely connected to this land. Let us walk into the snow mountains together, feel their majesty and tranquility, follow the Karakoram Highway into Taxkorgan, and experience the Tajik people's love and commitment to this land.
