Ujar District

The district spans across lowland areas and contains 29 villages plus one city, with both urban and rural settlements throughout the territory.

The district emerged from the Shirvan Beylerbey territory and underwent administrative changes until its establishment as an independent unit in January 1939.

The population of 89,500 residents maintains Azerbaijani traditions, with most people living in rural communities across the district's numerous villages.

The district functions under Azerbaijan Time Zone UTC+4 and connects to the telephone network through the area code +994 202.

The name originates from 'Ucqar' meaning remote, reflecting its historical distance from the former capital of the Shirvanshah state in Baku.
