Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. The Wakhjir Pass is a mountain pass in the Hindu Kush or Pamirs at the eastern end of the Wakhan Corridor, the only pass between Afghanistan and China. It links Wakhan in Afghanistan with the Tashkurgan Tajik Autonomous County in Xinjiang, China, at an altitude of 4,923 m. The border has the sharpest official change of clocks of any international frontier (UTC+4:30 in Afghanistan to UTC+8, China Standard Time, in China).There is no road across the pass. On the Afghan side the nearest road is a rough road to Sarhad-e Wakhan (also known as Sarhad-e Broghil), about 100 km from the pass by paths. On the Chinese side there is a jeep track about 15 km from the pass, which leads to the Karakoram Highway 80 km away. The pass is closed for at least five months a year and is open irregularly for the remainder.
