Naryn District (Naryn District)
Naryn District (Нарын району, before 2004: Tyanshan District) is a district of Naryn Region in central-southern Kyrgyzstan. The administrative seat lies at the city Naryn, which is not part of the district. Naryn District was established in its borders in 1930. It borders with At-Bashy District to the south, Ak-Talaa District to the west, Kochkor District to the north, Tong District to the north-east, Jeti-Ögüz District to the east, and Lake Song Köl to the north-west. Its area is 10502 km2, and its resident population was 49,955 in 2021.
The district is characterized by the scenic Tian Shan Mountains, alpine pastures and Lake Song Köl which during summer months attracts large herds of sheep and horses with their herders and their yurts.
The economy of Naryn oblast is dominated by animal herding (sheep, horses, yaks), with wool and meat as the main products. Mining of various minerals developed during the Soviet era has largely been abandoned as uneconomical. Today the area is considered to be the poorest region in the country.
