Pishin District

Pishin (Pashto: پښين; IPA: pʂin/pçin) is a district in the Balochistan province of Pakistan. Pishin District is located at 45 km² from the provincial headquarters, Quetta. In 1975, it was bifurcated from Quetta District, while in 1993 part of it was split off to form the new district of Killa Abdullah.

Again in 2022, part of it created the new district of Karezat. Myth attributes the origin of the Persian designation to a son of the mythical Emperor Afrasiab. The population of Pishin District was 300,000 in 2005.
