Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region, China. The name derives from the two villages where most of the inhabitants live, Kom (township seat), and Kanas.
It is the northernmost township in Xinjiang and northwest China and the start of China National Highway 219. Kanas Lake is located entirely in the township.
The township is one of the few areas in China where Tuvans live and the Tuvan language is still spoken. However, no official census data about the Tuvan population is available, since they are an unrecognized ethnic group in China.
