This administrative territory covers 3,050 square kilometers of land at an elevation of 1,961 meters above sea level in the East Zangezur region.

The district returned to Azerbaijani control in November 2020 following a ceasefire agreement that ended the second Nagorno-Karabakh conflict.

The territory contains 750 monuments including the Khudavang Monastery Complex in Vang village, which represents early Christian architecture in Azerbaijan.

The regional economy centers on agriculture, with primary activities focused on cattle breeding and grain production across 132 settlements.
