== Etymology == Regarding the naming of Alulak, or what Alulak means, it should be said that lak means fruit reaching its full ripeness. In fact, when the fruit is on the verge of falling, meaning it has reached full ripeness, considering that people used to come to this area when the apricot fruit reached this stage, as it was a lush green place with many fruit orchards. Therefore, this place became known as Alulak and has remained so to this day.
