City

Tumxuk

Eastern Asia

Tumxuk is a county-level city in the western part of Xinjiang, China. The eastern part of the city is surrounded by Maralbexi County in Kashgar Prefecture, while the smaller western part lies near Kashgar itself, so the city consists of two separate pieces of territory. Tumxuk is the headquarters of the 3rd Division of the Xinjiang Production and Construction Corps and is currently administered by the 3rd Division. It uses the division and city integration system, under which the city shares the same leader group with the division that runs it.
