Bhimber District, Administrative district in Azad Kashmir, Pakistan
Bhimber District spans across 1,516 square kilometers of territory and contains three distinct administrative subdivisions called tehsils: Barnala, Bhimber, and Samahni.
The district gained its administrative status in 1996 after being separated from Mirpur District, marking a significant change in the regional governance structure.
The population of 420,624 residents communicates in multiple languages, including Punjabi, Pahari-Pothwari, Dogri, and Gujari, with Urdu serving as the official language.
The district connects to neighboring regions through a network of roads, with the main town of Bhimber situated 47 kilometers southeast of the city of Mirpur.
The district contains archaeological remains from the Mughal period, as emperors frequently passed through this region during their travels to the Kashmir Valley.
