Kyzyl-Jar, Aksy


Kyzyl-Jar is a village in Aksy District of Jalal-Abad Region in Kyrgyzstan. Its population was 5,016 in 2009. The Naryn River separates the village from Uch-Kurgan, Uzbekistan, not far from Namangan. The area and even the village are still sometimes referred to as Uch-Korgon, presumably due to the lumping together of the two villages during Soviet times. The village is located on the edge of the Fergana Valley and as such is a heavy watermelon, melon, and cotton-producing area.
