Buzha Cemetery

　　Introduc­tion         Located on the southern edge of the oasis in Buzha Township, 18 kilometers southwest of Hotan City, the cemetery stretches 800 meters from east to west and 400 meters from north to south. Since 1983, multiple excavations have been carried out here, uncovering a batch of well-preserved painted coffins. The corpses inside were dressed in exquisite silk garments, dating back to the Five Dynasties period. This site served as an ancient cemetery for the people of Khotan and plays an important role in supplementing and verifying the historical and cultural research of the region.
