The District of Gjilan (Albanian: Rajoni i Gjilanit; Serbian: Гњилански округ, romanized: Gnjilanski okrug) is one of the seven districts (the higher-level administrative divisions) of Kosovo.

Anamorava, literally "side of river of Morava", is the hilly countryside in south eastern Kosovo south of Gjilan and on the Binačka Morava.

[3] It stretches eastward to the Preševo (Presheva) valley in southern Serbia.

The mountains in this region rise to an altitude of 1,000 to 1,200 meters, and culminate in the Skopska Crna Gora region bordering neighboring North Macedonia north of Skopje.

In the 2011 census, after the creation of new municipalities with Serb population, Albanians are the majority in: Gjilan (97.4%), Kamenica (94.7%), Viti (99.3%), and in Klokot (53.3%).
