Yizhou (Uyghur: ئىۋىرغول رايونى, romanizedIwirghol; Chinese: 伊州[2][3]; pinyin: Yīzhōu) is the central district of the Hami prefecture-level city, in Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region, China. Its population was 472,175 at the end of 2010. It was known as Hami county-level city until February 2016, when it was merged with the Hami Prefecture to form the Hami prefecture-level city and the county-level city was renamed Yizhou District.
