KAZALA, or KAZALINSK

This article appears in Volume V15, Page 703 of the Encyclopedia Britannica.

Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: JUN-KHA
KAZALA, or KAZALINSK , a fort and town in the Russian province of Syr-darya in West
Turkestan
 , at the point where the Kazala River falls into the Syr-darya, about 50 M. from its mouth in Lake
Aral
 , in 450 45' N. and 62 7' E., " at the junction," to quote Schuyler, " of all the
trade
  routes in Central
Asia
 , as the road from Orenburg meets here with the
Khiva
 ,
Bokhara
  and
Tashkent
  roads." Besides carrying on an active
trade
  with the Kirghiz of the surrounding country, it is of growing importance in the general current of commerce. Pop. (1897), 7600. The floods in the river make it an
island
  in
spring
 ; in summer it is parched by the sun and hot winds, and hardly a tree can be got to grow. The streets are wide, but the houses, as well as the fairly strong fort, are built of mud bricks.
