Tavuz District is an administrative district in the northwestern part of Azerbaijan, with the city of Tavuz as its capital. Located in the southern foothills of the Caucasus Mountains and bordering Georgia and Armenia, the district covers an area of about 2,700 square kilometers and has a population of about 200,000 people. The terrain is dominated by plains and hills, and the climate is mildly continental, with warm summers and mild winters.
The economy of the Tavuz region is dominated by agriculture, with an abundance of grapes, cereals and fruits, and winemaking is a traditional industry. In recent years, light industry and food processing have gradually developed. The district has mineral resources such as limestone and clay, but relies on external energy imports. In terms of transportation, the city of Tağuz is an important highway hub connecting Baku, the capital of Azerbaijan, with Georgia.
The region has a long history, with remnants of medieval castles and mosques, reflecting a mix of Persian and Turkic cultures. The population is predominantly Azerbaijani and retains traditional folklore and festivals. Though not a popular tourist destination, the Tağuz region's countryside and history attracts a niche audience.
