G'elon is an ancient village in Kashkadarya region at 2600 m above sea level, founded in 1305, near the Tajikistan border. The population is predominantly Tajik, preserving century-old traditions.

A 40-metre waterfall, the sacred Hazrat Sultan peak and unique two-storey architecture (lower floor for livestock, upper for living — found only in Tibet and Nepal elsewhere) make G'elon truly one-of-a-kind in Uzbekistan.
