This category brings together articles about the districts of Nizhny Novgorod Oblast — their geography, history, economy, settlements, and landmarks. The region spans a variety of natural zones: the forested Trans-Volga (Zavolzhye), the wooded steppe of the right bank, and the floodplains of the Volga and Vetluga rivers — and each district reflects its own pattern of settlement of these territories. Among the most notable are Gorodetsky District, home to the ancient town of Gorodets and the Zavolzhye area, Balakhninsky District, known for its rich history, Diveevskiy District, home to one of the country's major Orthodox Christian centers, and Bolsheboldinsky District, associated with the name of Pushkin. The articles give a sense of how the region is organized beyond Nizhny Novgorod itself.
