Kucha, China ,Ancient Buddhist Kingdom located on the branch of silk road .. Kucha (China) >> Kashgar or Kashi(China) : From a city which was once the seat of Hinayana Buddhism, famous for its Thousand Buddha Caves to Kashgar, oasis city situated in the western part of the Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region of the People's Republic of China, tremendously famous for its role as a stop-off point on the Silk Road, which is now a home to a large Muslim community, and where Chinese Hun represent just a few people...
