Manjavan District (Persian: بخش منجوان)[a] is in Khoda Afarin County, East Azerbaijan province, Iran. Its capital is the village of Asheqlu.[3]

In 2010, Khoda Afarin District was separated from Kaleybar County in the establishment of Khoda Afarin County, which was divided into three districts and seven rural districts, with Khomarlu as its capital and only city at the time.[3]
