Novolaksky District is an administrative territory in western Dagestan that covers a substantial area and borders the Chechen Republic. It comprises several rural communities with Novolakskoye serving as the main center, providing essential services to residents.
Major population movements in the 1940s brought new groups to settle the territory, fundamentally changing its composition. These resettlements shaped the current structure and identity of the district.
The district shows the diversity of Dagestan through different languages, customs, and local celebrations across its villages. In the rural settlements, you can observe distinct traditions and festivities that shape how different groups live together.
Novolakskoye at the center of the district is the best place to start exploring and finding local services. The best time to visit is when weather conditions allow easy access to the rural roads connecting the villages.
The territory shows traces of cultural landscapes reflecting different historical phases at various locations. Visitors often notice that older buildings and newer settlement patterns exist side by side, telling stories from different eras.
