Aghdash District, Administrative district in central Azerbaijan

The district spans 1,050 square kilometers, featuring plains and low mountain chains with Bozdag reaching heights of 700 meters in the north.

Established on August 8, 1930, Aghdash District remained part of the Azerbaijan Soviet Socialist Republic until the dissolution of the USSR in 1991.

The district maintains traditional silk-worm breeding practices while supporting two local newspapers, Agdash and Young Educators, which serve the community since 1932.

The Baku-Qazakh highway and Baku-Tbilisi railway provide transportation connections, while 32 post offices serve the district's communication needs.

The district's geographical position along the historical Silk Road combines with the Turianchay River, Kur River, and Shirvan Canal to support agricultural development.
