خوتان،[أ] هي بلدة واحة كبيرة في جنوب غرب شين‌جيانگ، ومنطقة ذاتية في غرب الصين. مدينة خوتان نفسها انفصلت عن ناحية خوتان الأكبر لتصبح منطقة ادارية بنفسها في أغسطس 1984. وهي مقر محافظة خوتان.

بتعداد 322,300 (تعداد 2010)، تقع خوتان في حوض تريم على بعد نحو 1,500 كم جنوب غرب العاصمة الإقليمية، أورومچي. وتقع إلى الشمال مباشرة من جبال كون‌لون، التي تعبرها ممرات سانجو, هندوطاش و إلچي. البلدة، الواقعة جنوب غرب ناحية يرقند، وجميع سكانها أويغور، هي مركز زراعي صغير. وكمحطة هامة على الفرع الجنوبي لطريق الحرير التاريخي، فقد اعتمدت خوتان دوماً على نهرين قويين - نهر قرة قاش و نهر اليشم الأبيض لإمدادها بالماء للحياة على الحافة الجنوبية الغربية لـصحراء تكلامكان الشاسعة. ومازال نهر اليشم الأبيض يجلب الماء للمدينة ويروي الواحة.[2][3]

أصل الاسم

The original name of Hotan is said to have been Godana, the name used in the Sanskrit cosmological texts. It carried the meaning of "land of cows". In Chinese, the same name was written as Yu-t'ien, pronounced as Gu-dana. The pronunciation changed over the years to Kho-tan. In the 7th century, Xuanzang tried to reverse interpret it in Sanskrit as Kustana. However, the Tibetans continued to call it Go-sthana, which also carried the meaning of "land of cows",[4][5]

تقع واحة خوتان في موقع استراتيجي عند تقاطع الفرع الجنوبي (والأقدم) من طريق الحرير الذي يربط بين الصين والغرب بأحد الطرق الرئيسية من الهند و التبت القديمتين إلى آسيا الوسطى والصين البعيدة، فقد وفرت مكاناً مناسباً للقاء حيث لا تنتقل البضائع فحسب، بل تنتقل التقنيات والفلسفات والأديان من ثقافة إلى أخرى.

خوتان الإسلامية

كان يوسف قادر خان شقيق أو ابن عم الحاكم المسلم لقشغر و بالاساگون، الذي فقدت خوتان في عهده استقلالها وبين 1006 و 1165، أصبحت جزءاً من خانية القرة خانات. Later it fell to the خانية قرة خيتان, after which it was ruled by the المنغول.

When Marco Polo visited Khotan in the 13th century, he noted that the people were all Muslim. He wrote that:

Khotan was "a province eight days’ journey in extent, which is subject to the Great Khan. The inhabitants all worship Mahomet. It has cities and towns in plenty, of which the most splendid, and the capital of the province, bears the same name as that of the province…It is amply stocked with the means of life. Cotton grows here in plenty. It has vineyards, estates and orchards in plenty. The people live by trade and industry; they are not at all warlike".[6][7]

The town suffered severely during the Dungan Revolt (1862–77) against the Qing dynasty and again a few years later when Yaqub Beg of Kashgar made himself master of Kashgaria (Altishahr).[8][9]

ميدان توان‌جيى

Qing imperial authority collapsed in 1912. During the Republican era (1912–49), warlords and local ethnic self-determination movements wrestled over control of Xinjiang. Abdullah Bughra, Nur Ahmad Jan Bughra, and Muhammad Amin Bughra declared themselves Emirs of Khotan during the Kumul Rebellion. Beginning with the Islamic rebellion in 1937, Hotan and the rest of the province came under the control of warlord Sheng Shicai. Sheng was later ousted by the Kuomintang. Shortly after the Communists won the civil war in 1949, Hotan was incorporated into the People's Republic of China. In 1984 the urban area of Hotan was administratively split from the larger Hotan County, and from then on governed as a county-level city.

Following the July 2009 Ürümqi riots, ethnic tensions rose in Xinjiang and in Hotan in particular. As a result, the city has seen occasional bouts of violence. In June 2011, Hotan opened its first passenger-train service to Kashgar, which was established as a special economic zone following the riots. In July of the same year, a bomb and knife attack occurred on the city's central thoroughfare. In June 2012, Tianjin Airlines Flight 7554 was hijacked en route from Hotan to Ürümqi.

الجغرافيا والمناخ

Hotan has a temperate zone, cold desert climate (Köppen BWk), with a mean annual total of only 36.5 millimetres (1.44 in) of precipitation falling on 17.3 days of the year. Due to its southerly location in Xinjiang just north of the Kunlun Mountains, during winter it is one of the warmest locations in the region, with average high temperatures remaining above freezing throughout the year. The monthly 24-hour average temperature ranges from −4.4 °C (24.1 °F) in January to 25.6 °C (78.1 °F) in July, and the annual mean is 12.54 °C (54.6 °F). The diurnal temperature variation is not large for a desert, averaging 12.3 °C (22.1 °F) annually. Although no month averages less than half of possible sunshine, the city only receives 2,587 hours of bright sunshine annually, which is on the low end for Xinjiang; monthly percent possible sunshine ranges from 50% in March to 75% in October.

Transportation

Air

Hotan Airport (IATA: HTN) serves the city. It serves regional flights to Ürümqi. Originally a military use airport, it was expanded significantly in 2002 to accommodate higher passenger volumes. It is located 12 km (7.5 mi) south of the city proper.

Road

Hotan is served by China National Highway 315, which runs along the southern Tarim Basin from Ruoqiang to Kashgar, and the Trans-Taklamakan Desert Highway, which run north to Luntai. An expressway is being built between Hotan and Karakax County (Moyu) as of 2014.

Rail

Hotan is connected to the rest of China's rail network via the Kashgar–Hotan Railway, which opened to freight traffic in December 2010, and passenger service in June 2011. The railway station was constructed by a company under the Xinjiang Production and Construction Corps, and is located in the town of Lasqi (拉斯奎) northwest of the city proper. Passenger train service on this line is limited, with only one train per day, local service 5828/5825, linking the city with Kashgar (8~ hours) and Ürümqi (~34 hours).

Buses

Regular bus services link Hotan with Kashgar. There is also an express bus to Aksu via the 430 km (270 mi) 'Hotan-Aksu Cross-Desert Highway' which was opened in 2007, travels alongside the intermittent Hotan River, and which takes about 5 or 6 hours. This same bus then goes on to Urumchi taking a total of about 21 hours from Hotan.[13]

Chinese historical sources indicate that Hotan was the main source of the nephrite jade used in ancient China. For several hundred years, until they were defeated by the Xiongnu in 176 BCE, the trade of Khotanese jade into China was controlled by the nomadic Yuezhi. The Chinese still refer to the Yurungkash as the White Jade River, alluding to the white jade recovered from its alluvial deposits. The light coloured jade is called "Mutton fat" jade. Most of the jade is now gone, with only a few kilos of good quality jade found yearly. Some is still mined in the Kunlun Mountains to the south in the summer,[14] but it is generally of poorer quality than that found in the rivers.[15][16]

الأقمشة والطنافس

Khotanese textiles were mentioned by Xuanzang, who visited the oasis in 644 CE. In his Biography it is stated: "It produced carpets and fine felt, and the felt-makers also spun coarse and fine silk."[17]
