Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. The Kumtagh Desert, Kumtag Desert or Desert of Kum-tagh ( Sand Mountain Desert ;Turkic kum means sand and tag means mountain ) is an arid landform in Northwestern China, which was proclaimed as a national park in the year 2002. 1. Broad definition: The oval Tarim Basin with its central Taklamakan Desert is bounded on the north, west and south by mountains. On the east side the Kumtagh is an unbroken plain about 100 miles from north to south that runs from the Taklamakan to Gansu and Mongolia. Many modern maps do not show a Kumtagh in this sense which implies that the usage may be out of date. The Kumtag Desert is a section of the Taklamakan Desert which lies east-southeast of the Desert of Lop. It is on the other side of the Kara-koshun and reaches north-eastwards as far as the vicinity of the town of Sa-chow and the lake of Kara-nor, or Kala-chi. It is bordered by Dunhuang in the east, Tian Shan in the north, and with an area of 22,800+ square kilometers. Its southern rim is marked by a labyrinth of hills, dotted in groups and irregular clusters,worn down as it were to mere fragments of their former skeletal structure.
