Charbagh Mausoleum
Charbagh Mausoleum
Located at the foot of Mazar Tagh Mountain in Charbagh Township, Bachu County, it is an ancient tomb of the Ismaili sect of Islam. Legend has it that Aiz Ali, son-in-law of the founder of Islam, Muhammad, once visited this place, and some soldiers who died in battle are also buried here. This mausoleum is quite famous in the Kashgar region, attracting tens of thousands of worshippers every year during the “Ayam Festival” (a holiday for ancestor worship by burning oil lamps).
