[9] The history of the district dates back to the formation of the settlement of Bogotolsky (modern Bogotol); presumably, in 1703.

[10] In the 17th century, the territory of what is now Bogotolsky District was settled by the Turkic tribes (Chulym Tatars).

[10] The name "Bogotol" (meaning a small beautiful valley) was borrowed from the language of those tribes.

[2] Within the framework of administrative divisions, Bogotolsky District is one of the forty-three in the krai.

[12] The Trans-Siberian Railway runs through district territory from west to east.
