Khanlar
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Khanlar (Xanlar) is a rayon (district) in northwestern Azerbaijan.
Khanlar Rayon was established in 1930. In 1992 the territory that was to become Samukh Rayon was separated out from Khanlar.
Khanlar Rayon is now 103,000 hectare with a population of 54,000. Khanlar City is the largest town followed by Hajimelik. Important villages are: Balchili, Gushgara, Chayli, Mollajalilli, and Topalhasanli.
Access to the southern portions of the rayon is restricted due to its proximity to Nagorno-Karabakh and the armistice line there.
