Има някакъв път от Китай до опашката на Афганистан (Вахан), но повечето публикации за това място се свързват единствено с думата "опиум":

There are limited opportunities for trafficking directly from Afghanistan into China. The border between the two countries is 76km long and conditions along the frontier are inhospitable. The only border crossing is the Wakhjir Pass at an altitude of 4,927m, which is closed for at least five months a year and is open irregularly for the remainder. Reaching the pass is difficult and depends on bringing opiates up through the Wakhan Corridor.
The Wakhan Corridor is a narrow slice of north-eastern Badakhshan wedged between the Tajik border to the north and the Pamir mountains to the south. It is an area of opium cultivation, although this is not as intensive as in other districts of Badakhshan because locals regard opium cultivation as a difficult prospect for which the labour requirements are not easily met.
