Today, August 26, Yunusabad district was established.

Yunusabad district is an administrative-territorial unit. It was established on August 1936, 26 under the name of Kirov district. Since May 1992, it has been called Yunusabad district.

There are different opinions about the origin of the name Yunusabad. According to some researchers (academician A. Muhammedjanov), the name of the place is very ancient and was originally called "Yunusrabot". Here, "rabot" is used in the sense of a caravanserai. Those entering the city from the north landed here. According to local intellectuals, the name of the place is related to the legends about the son of Yunushoji Nodirhoji, a businessman from Sebzor (19th century, who had gardens in Oktepas of Yunusabad). The district is located in the northern part of the city. It starts from Amir Temur avenue and continues to the north to the Tashkent ring road.
