The site is an important settlement site in the ancient Khotan area. The cultural relics unearthed in the past dynasties all come from the cultural layer 5 meters below the surface, and the cultural layer is about 3 meters thick. In the northeast corner of the site, there is a cultural layer exposed on the surface, and pottery pieces are densely distributed. The cultural relics unearthed in the past dynasties include pottery figurines, pottery fragments, ancient coins, glass pieces, beads, gold statues, paintings, jade blocks, bones and other cultural relics. Pottery figurines are mostly figures and animals. Most of the pottery fragments have inscriptions, imprints and additional decorations and reliefs. The themes are geometric patterns, plant patterns, figures and animals, etc., and the Persian and Greek styles are very strong. In 1959, a gold duck and the "Qianyuan Chongbao" money of the Tang Dynasty were unearthed. The golden duck is exquisite in craftsmanship, and its shape is similar to the duck in the Tang Dynasty murals in the Thousand Buddha Caves in Dunhuang. Sven Hedin also unearthed Christian gold coins, crosses and a gold medal, indicating that during the existence of the site, there were two missionaries who came to preach here. At present, a swampy depression with an area of about 0.3 square kilometers and 8 meters below ground level is included in the protection scope. The Yotegan site is a key cultural relic protection unit at the autonomous region level.

Don't come, there is no more, there are only two monuments left in the cultural relics protection unit, I have asked many elderly people in the village, even they have not seen it. Many netizens are not moral at all, and they are obviously gone. They mislead others by putting pictures from other places (Jordan has a similar site) in the evaluation of this attraction.
Follow the navigation, there was nothing in the past, and the local villagers said they were not here.
No, the picture is wrong! Early in the desert, not good, don't go! ! !
