Located on the river Naryn, downstream (southwest) of the Toktogul Dam, the city was built in the 1960s to house the construction workers for the dam, and granted city status in 1977. Currently, it is home to the staff of the hydroelectric plant. From the reservoir to Tash-Kömür the river flows through a gorge with a series of dams (the 'Lower Naryn Cascade').
The city is on the M41, near the Bishkek-Osh highway.
