Kulan

Kulan lay on the great road eastward from Taraz, between that city and Merki. Medieval geographers described it as a fortified settlement on the frontier of the Turkic lands, with sandy country stretching away to the north. Its remains include a citadel, long walls and the sites of numerous estates. One residence had a courtyard surrounded by rooms, with carved decoration on the walls and terracotta figures among its ornaments.
