Kyzylorda, Regional capital in South Central Kazakhstan.
The city of Qyzylorda stretches along the banks of the Syr Darya River at an elevation of 128 meters above sea level in south-central Kazakhstan.
Established in 1820 as the Kokand fort of Ak-Mechet, the settlement became the capital of the Kazakh Autonomous Soviet Socialist Republic from 1925 to 1929.
The local Kazakh theater presents regional performances, while Kyzylorda State University prepares students in multiple academic disciplines since 1950.
The region produces substantial quantities of rice through agricultural activities supported by the water resources from the Syr Darya River system.
