Uyghur Khaganate

former country

Por-Bazhyn (Por-Bajin, Por-Bazhyng, , Tuvan: Пор-Бажың) is a ruined structure on a lake island high in the mountains of southern Tuva (Russian Federation). The name means "clay house" in Tuvan. Excavations suggest that it was built as a Uyghur palace in the 8th century AD, converted into a Manichaean monastery soon after, abandoned after a short occupation, and finally destroyed by an earthquake and subsequent fire. Its construction methods show that Por-Bazhyn was built within the Tang Chinese architectural tradition.

Ordu-Baliq (meaning "city of the court", "city of the army"; ), also known as Mubalik and Karabalghasun, was the capital of the Uyghur Khaganate. It was built on the site of the former Göktürk imperial capital, north-to-northwest of the later Mongol capital, Karakorum. Its ruins are known as Kharbalgas (Хар Балгас) in Mongolian, which means "black ruins". They form part of the Orkhon Valley Cultural Landscape World Heritage Site.

Ötüken or Otuken ( or , , 'land of Ötüken'; ; ) was the capital of the First Turkic Khaganate, the Second Turkic Khaganate and the Uyghur Khaganate. It has an important place in Turkic mythology and Tengrism.
