Emin County, the official romanized name, also transliterated from Mongolian as Dörbiljin County, is a county situated in the north of the Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region and is under the administration of the Tacheng Prefecture, bordering Kazakhstan's districts of Tarbagatay and Zaysan.It has an area of 9092km2 with a population of 200,000. The Postcode is 834600.
Geographically, the county is located on the southern slopes of the Tarbagatai Mountains and in the Emin Valley. The main watercourse is the Emin (Emil) River.
The place was originally named Dörbiljin. In 1918, Yang Zengxin, the governor of Xinjiang, petitioned to have a county set up in the Emin Valley.[2] The new county was named after the Emin (Emil) River. Nevertheless, the official Kazakh and Uyghur name of the county is still "Dörbiljin".[2]
The Karamay–Tacheng Railway (under construction as of 2017) will serve Emin County.[3]
Emin County is divided into 6 towns, 3 townships, and 2 ethnic townships.[4]
