Eshqabad (Persian: عشق آباد) is a city in the Central District of Eshqabad County, South Khorasan province, Iran.[2] It was previously the capital of the former Dastgerdan District of Tabas County.[3] The city also served as the administrative center for Dastgerdan Rural District[4] until its capital was transferred to the village of Hudar.
