history

The village, founded in 1937 as Saryg-Bulun , became the administrative seat of a newly created Koschuun named after the river of the then Tuvinian People's Republic on July 28, 1941 and remained so after the region was annexed to the Soviet Union in 1944. On August 23, 1951, the village received his today's name, also after the river (confirmed by the Supreme Soviet of the RSFSR on March 20, 1952). From January 7, 1963 to January 12, 1965, the Koschuun (Rajon) was temporarily dissolved and its territory was attached to the Tes-Chemski rajon based in Samagaltai , 40 km north-northwest .
