The article describes the appearance, modern state, and history of the Khankorgan city study – as a cultural monument of the Sairam region of the Middle Ages during the formation of the Kazakh Khanate. Supplementary, the goal of the article is to fill the gaps in history by studying ancient monuments. Khankorgan is a medieval city (Sairam district of Turkestan region) on the northwestern outskirts of the settlement of the same name (now Madani) on the left bank of the Arys river. It is built on a low floodplain on the left bank of the river. In general, it is recorded as a historical, cultural, and architectural monument of the territory of the modern Turkestan region. This article examines some of the little-studied historical features of the Khankorgan.
