Chirchiq (Template:Langx) is a district-level city in Tashkent Region, Uzbekistan.[2] It is about 32 km northeast of Tashkent, along the river Chirchiq. Chirchiq lies in the Chatkal Mountains. The population of Chirchiq as of 2021 is approximately 162,800.[1]

It is located at latitude 41° 28' 8N; longitude 69° 34' 56E, 582 meters above sea level.

History

The city was founded in 1935,[3] when several local villages grew together as a consequence of the construction of a hydroelectric power station on the Chirchiq River.

Economy

Chirchiq is in the middle of an intensively cultivated area, producing mainly vegetables and fruits, including melons and grapes. A large electrochemical work produces fertilizer for the region's collective farms. Chirchiq's industries also include the production of ferroalloys and machinery for the agricultural and chemical industries.

Chirchiq is also a major winter recreation area in Tashkent Region. There are two major ski resorts near the city, named Chimgan and Amirsoy, that attract tourists from throughout Central Asia and Russia. A water diversion on the Chirchiq River just outside the city provides the major source of drinking water for Tashkent and other cities to the south.

Surroundings
