The ruins of Subash Buddhist Temple bear witness to cultural exchanges between the East and the West. In 628 AD, an eminent monk of the Tang Dynasty, traveled to the west to collect Buddhist scriptures.

Xuanzang vividly described the prosperity of the Subashi Buddhist Temple at that time with the image of "Buddha statue decoration, almost more than artificial" In 2014, it was included in the World Cultural Heritage List of "Silk Road: Road Network of Chang'an-Tianshan Corridor"
