Attractions distribution:

According to legend, in the 11th century AD, an Islamic Arab named Sulitan Khurshi Saeed from Saudi Arabia led more than 2,000 believers to preach in the Western Regions of China via India. They were resisted and clashed with the locals. When they retreated here (this place is called Selikwedu, which means yellow land in Uyghur, it is also a barren land), the believers were tired and thirsty, and Sulita Kurmish Said used to leave. The walking stick given by Muhammad in Mecca was inserted into the current location of the spring, and the spring water gushed out. Later, he inserted the walking stick into various places, and wherever the walking stick was inserted, spring water gushed out, and soon formed a A dense oasis. Later, this place became a cemetery for fallen believers. Su was buried here after his death in action, forming a mazar. At the turn of every spring and summer, Muslims from far and near come here to worship, with the number on a peak day exceeding 10,000.
