Khachmaz District, Administrative district in northeastern Azerbaijan.
The district extends between the Caucasus Mountains and the Caspian Sea, covering an area with diverse landscapes from mountains to coastline.
The district established on August 8, 1930, underwent administrative changes, including temporary integration into Guba and Gusar districts before restoration in 1995.
The Regional Ethnography Museum preserves over 4,000 archaeological artifacts, scientific manuscripts, and historical documents from different periods of regional development.
The district contains 123 secondary schools, 25 preschools, vocational institutions, and maintains railway connections for transportation throughout the region.
The ancient fortifications of Baba-al-Abvat, constructed in the 8th-7th centuries BC, protected the northern boundaries of Azerbaijan near present-day Khachmaz.
