Bukadaban Feng or Buka Daban Feng (simplified Chinese: 布喀达坂峰; traditional Chinese: 布喀達坂峰; pinyin: Bùkā Dábǎn Fēng), Syn Qing Feng (Chinese: 新青峰; pinyin: Xīn Qīng Fēng) or Bokalik Tagh (Chinese: 博卡雷克塔格山; pinyin: Bókǎléikè Tǎgé Shān), is a remote peak on the border between Ruoqiang County, Xinjiang and Qinghai provinces of China.[2] The Chinese term 'Bukadaban Feng' is borrowed from the Uyghur for "bison peak".[3] It is part of the Kunlun Mountains of East-Central Asia. At 6,860 metres (22,507 ft) – the height 7,720 metres (25,328 ft) on older maps was incorrect – Bukadaban Feng is the highest point of the Qinghai province and with a prominence of 1,922 metres (6,306 ft), it is also an ultra prominent peak.[2] The peak is considered part of Hoh Xil.[4]
