The ruins of the ancient castle that are preserved now are only an earthen wall on the south side and several human settlements in the wall. Later generations verified that the Princess Fortress was actually a military fortress, which was built around the Southern and Northern Dynasties for the purpose of protecting the traffic safety of the ancient Silk Road.

allusion: Once there was a king of Polis who married a princess of the Han nationality. When the welcoming team came back here due to the war, they found a nearby lonely mountain and dangerous peak to live in. The surrounding area was tightly fortified to ensure that no outsiders could go up the mountain. Unexpectedly, 3 months later, it was reported that the princess was pregnant, and the wedding missions were terrified. The reason is that according to the princess's personal maid, a handsome man rides down from the sun to meet the princess every day at noon. The mission to welcome the relatives must not be able to return, so they simply built a city on the isolated peak. The princess gave birth as scheduled, and when she became an adult, she became a king on her own, calling herself Han Ritianzhong.

I can't see anything coming. It is said that the location is at the entrance of the ancient Wakhan Road. Since I can't watch it up close, I can't figure out what is left of the castle. Just curious, if the castle is built on a mountain, how to solve the problem of drinking water?

(The local Tajiks call it "Kizkorgan"). It is located on a high mountain with an altitude of more than 4,000 meters in the Karachi Ancient Canyon, the throat of the ancient Silk Road in the south of Taxkorgan City. It is one of the tallest ancient castles known in my country. The mountain where the castle is located is steep and steep, and there is a ravine on the north side that can reach the Pisi Ridge Daban, with an altitude of 4,000 meters. It is the throat on the South Silk Road. To the south of the ancient city site is an east-west earth wall, 150 meters long and 10 meters high. The fort wall is built with earth, stone and tree branches. It is composed of buildings such as city walls, heavy gates, crypts and stone chambers. It is dangerous and difficult to climb. The wall is built according to the ups and downs of the mountain, and the protruding part of the wall on the west presents a "horse face" shape (commonly known as a fort). There are 13 residential relics in the castle. According to the analysis of the topography of the castle, it is mainly a military project, which is related to the protection of the ancient Silk Road traffic safety. According to the research of the British explorer Stein, this place is the castle where the "Princess of Dongtu" lived in the story "Han Ri Tian Zhong" recorded by Tang Xuanzang in "Da Tang Xi Yu Ji". When Tang Monk Xuanzang passed by here, he heard a moving story: the local King Kepantuo claimed to be Nadivuo Tanluo, which means "Chinese, Japanese and Heavenly Seed". Legend has it that there was a king of Polis who married a princess of the Han nationality. The welcoming team came back here, and because of the war, they found a lonely mountain and a dangerous peak to live in, and the surrounding guards were strictly guarded, and no outsiders could go up the mountain. Unexpectedly, after 3 months, the princess was pregnant. The welcoming mission was very frightened. According to the princess's personal maid, at noon every day, a handsome man rides down from the sun to meet the princess. The mission to welcome relatives could not return, so they built a city on the isolated peak. The princess gave birth to a child at the due date, took the throne as king, and became the ruler of this area. Because the king's mother is from the Han land and his father is the seed of the Sun and Heaven, he calls himself the Han, the Sun and Heaven Seed.
