=Akcha=

Principal town in the district o the same name in Afghan-
Turkistan, situated in 36 degree 55' N. and 66° 10' E. ; 1,088 feet above the
sea. It is a walled town about 2 miles in circumference, with a lofty
citadel, and generally contains a small Afghan garrison. It is unhealthy
in the hot season, owing to fever caused by the irrigation carried on
all around. Akcha has a good deal of trade, and is said to be more
often visited by Bokhara caravans than any other place in Afghan-
Turkistan. About 1,200 Uzbeg families and some Hindu merchants
reside in the town and suburbs. The number of shops and stalls open
on the be-weekly market days is given as 242.
