Yengisar County[5][6][7][8][9][10] (formerly transliterated as Yangi Hissar, from Uyghur: يېڭىسار ناھىيىسى[11]), also known as Yingjisha County[12][13] (Chinese: 英吉沙县), is a county of Kashgar Prefecture in southwest Xinjiang, China. It covers an area of 3,373 km2 (1,302 sq mi). As of the 2002 census, it had a population of 230,000.
The county seat is the city of Yengisar, a town well known among the local Uyghurs for its handmade knives. The finely-tuned skill of knife-making used to be passed down among generations in Yengisar,[14] but it is slowly dying due to China's strict response to deadly clashes in Xinjiang.[15]
