Beylagan (Azerbaijani: Beyləqan (listen)) is the administrative centre of the Beylagan District of Azerbaijan. During the Soviet era, it was renamed Zhdanovsk (Russian: Ждановск) after close Stalin associate Andrei Zhdanov. After the collapse of the Soviet Union, the city reverted in 1991 to its original name. Beylagan is one of the oldest towns in Azerbaijan. It is located in the triangle between the Kura and Aras rivers in the Mil plain.
