Khalmion


Khalmion is a village in Kadamjay District, Batken Region in south-west Kyrgyzstan, sitting practically on the border with Uzbekistan's Fergana Region. Its population was 4,602 in 2009. The village lies just to the west of a tiny enclave belonging to Uzbekistan, less than 1 km2 in area and known also as Khalmion, or alternately as Jani-Ayil or Jangy-ayyl. This enclave is located north-northwest of another Uzbek enclave. The Kyrgyz villages of Khalmion and Jani-Ayil lie outside opposite edges of this enclave, within 1 km of the Kyrgyz-Uzbek main border.
