The Niya ruins were discovered at the beginning of the 20th century and are distributed over an area of ??approximately 60 to 80 square kilometers. The central landmark of the site is a Buddhist pagoda. Around the pagoda are scattered settlements, smelting workshop ruins, tombs, etc. This site is the largest existing group of sites in Taklimakan.
