Khara Khoto in the sands of western Inner Mongolia, China, also known as the "Black City." Founded in 1032, this place was once a trading hub along the Silk Road. But by the late 14th century, it mysteriously fell silent, possibly due to warfare or a diverted water source. Buried under sand for centuries, Khara Khoto was rediscovered in the early 20th century.
