The district extends across 2,610 square kilometers of varied terrain, from valleys to mountains, reaching elevations of 1,990 meters above sea level.

The district gained administrative status on August 8, 1930, following the reorganization of territories during the early Soviet period in Azerbaijan.

The region maintains strong carpet weaving traditions, with local artisans creating distinctive patterns that represent the northeastern Azerbaijani carpet making school.

The district contains 155 educational institutions, 16 medical facilities, and extensive apple orchards that produce fruit for domestic consumption and export.

Local communities in the district speak several indigenous languages, including Budukh and Khinalug, which are specific to this region of Azerbaijan.
