Notes on location estimate
The exact location can be found in this YouTube vlog made by a group of Chinese cyclists in 2020:
Observe that in the photograph, the slope on the left has a bump 10-20 meters from the bottom. This is visible in the video at aforementioned timestamp.
The next landmark along the cyclists' journey that can be geographically identified "272道班" signage at timestamp 3:44. Signage means "The 272 Highway Maintenance Crew", where 272 is the kilometre marker along the G129 highway.
According to this blog, Mazar village is located at kilometre mark 241.
Thus this location must be located between 0 and 31 kilometres east of Mazar village.
