Lebap Region, Administrative region in eastern Turkmenistan

The Lebap Region spans 93,727 square kilometers along the Amu Darya River, bordered by Uzbekistan to the north and Afghanistan to the south.

The region developed as a major trading point during the Silk Road period, with the Dayahatyn caravansaray from the 10th century marking its commercial importance.

The province contains multiple ethnic communities and maintains traditional practices such as silk production and Karakul sheep breeding in desert territories.

The Turkmenabat-Farap bridges across the Amu Darya connect the region with Uzbekistan, facilitating international trade and transportation networks.

The Köýtendag Nature Reserve contains the longest documented dinosaur tracks worldwide and houses Aýrybaba, the highest mountain peak in Turkmenistan at 3,137 meters.
