Ancient city of hanouk

The ancient city was built in the yuan and Ming Dynasties. After Genghis Khan conquered Central Asia, he assigned it to Chagatai, his second son. In 1292, it became the territory of King aluhu, the son of Chagatai, known as "yelqin".

In the 1970s, after the development and prosperity of the Ili River Valley, the capital of irut Mongolian Junggar was moved to ILI, and the ancient city of hainuke became the capital of the Junggar Khanate. At the beginning of the 18th century, they plundered a large amount of gold and silver, artifacts, and Buddha statues from Tibet. Then they built the hainuke temple on the South Bank of the Ili River and the gulezha temple on the north bank to place and worship them, becoming the Holy Land worshipped by the Mongolians at that time. Today, the outer city of the ancient city has been destroyed, and the rectangular walls of the inner city remain. The Yinding temple in the ancient city is across the river from Jinding temple in Yining City. It was built at the same time with Jinding temple. However, white is the most noble Tibetan Buddhism, so its scale is better than the latter. It is said that the roof of the temple is decorated with yak horns. Yinding temple and Jinding temple were destroyed by war at the same time

The inner city is slightly rectangular, with the remnant walls of the city wall. It is built of rammed earth, about 2 meters high. There are remains of buildings in the north of the city, the rest of which have been destroyed by early diggers and have been in the shape of a ditch.
