Erzurum Province, Administrative province in Eastern Anatolia, Turkey

Erzurum Province encompasses 25,006 square kilometers of mountainous terrain with elevations reaching over 3,000 meters in Eastern Anatolia.

The region transformed from a Roman fortress named Theodosiopolis into a strategic Ottoman territory following its conquest in 1514.

The province maintains traditional winter festivities, regional dances, and local specialties such as Cağ Kebab throughout its numerous districts.

Transportation networks include an international airport, railway connections, and extensive road systems linking the province to neighboring regions.

Lake Tortum features the largest natural waterfall in Turkey, dropping 48 meters through rocky formations within the provincial boundaries.
