    Khujand, situated in northwestern Tajikistan, is positioned on both sides of the Syr Darya River, marking the gateway to the fertile and densely populated Fergana Valley. As one of Central Asia's ancient cities, it played a significant role along the renowned Silk Road connecting China and Europe. Throughout its history, Khujand experienced various conquests, including capture by the Arabs in the 8th century, Genghis Khan's forces in the 13th century, and Russian control in 1866. Presently, it stands as the second-largest city in Tajikistan, featuring a prominent silk combine and engaging in industries such as cotton processing and food canning. The city is home to a teacher-training institute, a theater, and a historical museum. As of the 2007 estimate, the population is approximately 155,900.
