Qazax District (Gazakh District; Azerbaijani: Qazax rayonu) is one of the 69 districts of Azerbaijan. Located in the northwest of the country, it belongs to the Gazakh-Tovuz Economic Region. The district borders the district of Aghstafa, and the Tavush Province of Armenia. Its capital and largest city is Gazakh. As of 2020, the district had a population of 98,400.[2]
It has two exclaves inside Armenia, which include the villages of Yukhari Askipara, Barkhudarly, Sofulu.
