Goychay District, Administrative district in central Azerbaijan

The district stretches across 736 square kilometers, encompassing mountainous terrains and lowlands at the foothills of the Greater Caucasus mountain range.

The district formation occurred in August 1930 during Azerbaijan's administrative reorganization, following its earlier status as part of the Baku Governorate.

The district gained recognition for its pomegranate cultivation, celebrating this agricultural heritage through an annual festival established in November 2006.

The region maintains connections through the Baku-Gazakh highway located 216 kilometers away and the Ujar railway station positioned 18 kilometers from the district.

The Goychay River and Upper Shirvan Canal flow through the district, providing construction materials including river rocks and soft sand deposits.
