Lazarat, Administrative division in Gjirokastër County, Albania
Located on the slopes of Mali i Gjerë mountain near Gjirokastër city, Lazarat spreads across the Dropull valley in southern Albania.
Following population movements during Ottoman rule, Kaplan Pasha settled people from the Kurvelesh region into Lazarat, establishing new community foundations.
The residents of Lazarat maintain traditional Albanian customs, speaking the Tosk dialect while practicing both Muslim and Bektashi religious traditions.
The village economy centers on agriculture and animal husbandry, with dairy production providing income opportunities for local inhabitants.
The name Lazarat incorporates the Albanian suffix -at, commonly used for place names, derived from the personal name of its founder, Lazar.
