Mount Adelung (Template:Langx) is the highest peak in Pskem Mountains (Template:Langx) in the extreme north-east of the Tashkent Region, Uzbekistan.[1] Mount Adelung is the highest point of Tashkent Province at Template:Cvt, just 2 metres higher than the nearby Mount Beshtor, located a little further to the south-west in the same range, and it is often erroneously identified in various web sources as the "highest point in Uzbekistan". In fact, this honor goes to the Khazret Sultan, a peak with an altitude of 4,643 m in Surxondaryo Region, in the Uzbek part of the Gissar Range, on the border with Tajikistan, which was formerly known as Peak of the 22nd Congress of the Communist Party.[2][3]
