Scholar Shamsuddin Kamoliddinov believes that the city of Khushminjakas, mentioned in the Kitab-al-Ansab by Abdul Karim ibn Muhammad al-Samani, who traveled through Central Asia in the 12th century, Kishmishtepa.
[6] Major cities around Chirakchi, Karshi, and Shakhrisabz, were directly subordinate to the Emir of Bukhara.
The caravan route through Shakhrisabz was mountainous and difficult to traverse, so the road through Chirakchi was the most convenient.
The famous Hungarian traveler and historian Hermann Vambéry mentioned this in his "Journey to Central Asia".
[7] In his memoirs, Sadriddin Ayni recounts an attempt to foment uprisings in Chirakchi during the rule of Abdullah Khan.
[9] On November 24, 1977, by a decision of the Presidium of the Supreme Soviet of Uzbekistan, Chirakchi was designated as the center of the district.
Residents of the city earn their income mainly from small trade, homesteading, and livestock farming.
The city is situated in the southwestern foothills of the Zeravshan Range at an elevation of approximately 510 meters above sea level.
The local football club "Chirokchi" is popular among the townspeople, which plays at the new stadium "Tamerlan", designed for 3,000 spectators.
