Eshqabad (Persian: عشق آباد)[a] is a city in the Central District of Eshqabad County, South Khorasan province, Iran.[4] It was previously the capital of the former Dastgerdan District of Tabas County.[5] The city also served as the administrative center for Dastgerdan Rural District[6] until its capital was transferred to the village of Hudar.
