The Salar people are a Turkic ethnic minority in China who speak Salar, a Turkic language of the Oghuz sub-branch.[2][3][4][5][6] They numbered 165,159 people in 2020, according to that year's national census.[1]
The Salars live mostly in the Qinghai-Gansu border region, on both sides of the Yellow River, namely in Xunhua Salar Autonomous County and Hualong Hui Autonomous County of Qinghai and the adjacent Jishishan Bonan, Dongxiang and Salar Autonomous County of Gansu.[7] There are also Salars in some parts of Henan and Shanxi, as well as in northern Xinjiang, in the Ili Kazakh Autonomous Prefecture. They are a patriarchal agricultural society and predominantly Muslim.
