Doʻstobod is a city in Tashkent Region, Uzbekistan, and the capital of Quyichirchiq District. It was known as Soldatsky until 1991. The settlement of Soldatsky was founded in 1894 during the Russian colonization of the Tashkent district, and its first residents were mostly Russian Cossacks, Ukrainians, merchants and peasants. The present name is of Iranian origin and means settlement of friends or city of friendship. Its population was 13,600 in 2000 and 16,200 in 2016. Uzbekistan is a doubly landlocked country in Central Asia, so Doʻstobod has no coast.
