Tursunzoda (Tajik: Турсунзода; also Tursunzade from Russian: Турсунзаде) is a city in western Tajikistan, known for its aluminium smelting plant TadAZ.

In 1978, the town and with it the whole district were renamed in honor of the Tajik national poet, Mirzo Tursunzoda.

The city developed from a village as a regional centre for an agricultural district in the western part of Gissar (Hisor) Valley.

Thanks to plentiful irrigation from the local rivers, Tursunzoda district is a major rice-growing region, producing 1,400 tons, or 13% of Tajikistan's rice harvest in 2006.

[3] In the 1960s, the nearby Nurek Dam hydroelectric power station on the river Vakhsh made the city a good location for industry, and besides the aluminium plant, there are also china, brick, cable, and cotton cleaning plants.
