Bulqan is a village and municipality in the Nakhchivan city of Nakhichivan Autonomous Republic, Azerbaijan. It is located 5 km in the south from the city center, on the bank of the Araz River. Its population is busy with grain-growing, vegetable-growing, animal husbandry, fruit-growing and horticulture. It has a population of 1,150. A 12th to 19th century necropolis, now mostly submerged, is registered with the Ministry of Culture and Tourism.
According to sources at certain stages of history, the Bulgars who came to Azerbaijan were separated to the branches as bulgan, chakar, kuyvar, kuruqir, gul, gazan, iskilv and have spread in different areas of Azerbaijan. Most likely, the name of the village was formed at the result of the phonetic transformation of the tribal name Bolgar .
