Uzhhorod Raion, Administrative district in Zakarpattia Oblast, western Ukraine.
Uzhhorod Raion is an administrative district in western Ukraine's Zakarpattia region, spanning mountains, forests, and farmland near the borders of Hungary and Slovakia. The area includes numerous towns and villages, with Uzhhorod serving as the main center.
The area has been part of different historical territories under various powers over the centuries. In July 2020, it was reorganized and expanded during Ukraine's administrative reform that restructured regional divisions.
Hungarian communities form an important part of the local population, shaping everyday customs and social life. This presence influences how neighborhoods are organized and how people interact with their surroundings.
The district is accessible from larger cities and border crossings, with several smaller towns to explore. Visitors benefit from having a car or using local transportation to experience the varied landscape.
The district is home to Romanian communities known as Volohy who have settled in specific villages like Poroshkovo. These groups maintain their own traditions and ways of life that add to the region's ethnic diversity.
