Taghdumbash Pamir (Chinese: 塔克敦巴什帕米尔 or historically Chinese: 塔德八士[1]) or Taxkorgan Nature Reserve[2] is a pamir or high valley[3] in the south west of Tashkurgan Tajik Autonomous County, in Xinjiang, China.

During the Qing dynasty, the Chinese claimed suzerainty over the area but permitted the Mir of Hunza to administer the region in return for a tribute.

[5] According to British colonial sources, this arrangement started during early Ayosh dynasty of Mir of Hunza, as the Mir conquered the Kirghiz nomads of Taghdumbash Pamir.

[6] The Mir erected a cairn in Dafdar to evidence his control.

[4][5] In 1984, the pamir and surrounding area was designated Taxkorgan Nature Reserve.
