Overview

Gallaorol District was formed on 29 September 1926 and was called Yangiqorgon District until 1931. Its centre is the town of Gallaorol, and it includes six small towns, among them Marjonbuloq and Qoytosh, and more than a hundred villages. It borders the Forish, Sharof Rashidov and Bakhmal districts and Samarkand Region.

Spurs of the Nuratau frame it to the north and the Malguzar mountains to the east, while the centre and west are flat. The name means 'grain island', and rain-fed wheat has long been grown here, alongside orchards, vineyards and livestock, including karakul sheep.

Highlights

On the eastern border, in the Sanzar gorge known as Tamerlane's Gate, inscriptions of Ulugh Beg (1425) and Abdullah Khan (1571) are carved into the cliffs. Near Qoytosh in the north, sand dunes are protected as a natural monument.
