Kadamjay
Kadamjay is the town in Kadamjay District of Batken Province of Kyrgyzstan. Kadamjay is located between the cities of Khaidarkan (Aidarken) (to the west) and Kyzyl-Kiya (to the east). In the Soviet period, the town was officially known as "Frunze", and the village adjacent to it from the north, as "Frunzenskoe". Since Kyrgyzstan's capital was also called Frunze, the name must have been quite confusing, and the locals would refer to their town as Kadamjay, and the village as Pulgon.
