The Mingyaole Ancient Battlefield is located in Mingyaole Village, Mushi Township, northwest of Shufu County, Kashgar City, 8 kilometers from Mingyaole Village and 60 kilometers from Kashgar City. It is one of the sites showcasing ancient Chinese battlefields and their historical development.
This was the site where in the third year of the Guangxu reign during the Qing Dynasty, General Liu Jintang led troops to completely annihilate the remaining forces of the Agubai bandits, bringing the entire southern Xinjiang region back under Chinese control. Later, the Qing government erected a victory stele here, which is now preserved in the regional museum. In summer, it serves as an excellent summer retreat and holds significant importance for promoting patriotism and safeguarding national unity.
