The Kadamjay District extends across 6,146 square kilometers of mountainous terrain in southwestern Kyrgyzstan, bordering Uzbekistan with numerous rivers flowing through the region.

The district gained prominence in 1942 with the establishment of the Khaidarkan Mercury Plant, which transformed the local economy through industrial mineral extraction operations.
