Boldumsaz Overview
Boldumsaz functions as a city and the capital of Boldumsaz District within the Daşoguz Province of Turkmenistan. Positioned at coordinates 42.12824 latitude and 59.67101 longitude, the municipality supports a population of 39,532 residents.

The local population communicates using Turkmen, Russian, and Uzbek languages, conducting financial transactions in the TMT currency. Historically known as Kalinin and Voro’silovabad during the Soviet period—named in honor of Mikhail Kalinin and Kliment Voroshilov respectively—the city received its present designation on 5 May 1993 via Presidential Decree No. 1327.
Scholars interpret the name Boldumsaz to mean "Fortress in a Marshy Place," referencing a visible fortress situated atop a square plateau. Alternatively, local folklore attributes the naming to an architect who escaped a local Khan by constructing wings and flying away from a minaret, eventually landing at the fortress and uttering the Turkmen equivalent of "Safe and Sound." Some researchers have identified the city with the medieval town of Nyzvar, which was sacked by Mongols, though this identification remains contested.
Further details regarding the settlement can be examined through the Boldumsaz Wikipedia entry and the GeoNames record for Boldumsaz.
