Bazai Gonbad
'domes of the elders'[2]) is the site of a domed tomb (or gonbad) and nearby settlement of mostly ethnic Kyrgyz herders in the Wakhan District of Badakhshan Province of Afghanistan.[7] Construction of the road from Sarhad to Bazai Gonbad and then to the Wakhjir Pass (Afghanistan–China border) in the northeast has started in late 2023.The eastern border of Wakhan District was settled with China's Qing dynasty during the reign of Ahmad Shah Durrani in 1750.While debris of mud buildings and similar constructions can occasionally be found, they are generally seen as only indicating relatively recent occupation and have little if any evidence of a permanent character.In order to improve the local economy, the government of Afghanistan has built a road to Sarhad in the southwest and Wakhjir Pass (Afghanistan–China border) in the east.
