The Tang Dynasty Chinese cliff carvings discovered in the Dil mountain of Ulziit in the central Gobi Province of Mongolia indicate that this area was an important node on the grassland transportation line at that time.The route through the desert to capital of the Uyghur Empire,as recorded in the New Book of Tang passed through this area as the'Eastern Uyghur Road',also known as the'the road of having an audience with Tengri Khan'.The inscriptions were carved during the rule of restraint period of the Tang Dynasty in the second year of Linde,which confirmed the historical event that Emperor Gaozong of the Tang Dynasty offered sacrifices to heaven and earth in Mount Tai and invited the leaders of Tiele tribes in the Boreal desert to come,which reflected the communications between the Tang Dynasty and the northern nomads and the control of the Tang government over the vassal prefectures in the Boreal desert.
