Agro-town Lyaskovichi is a small settlement in the extreme south-west of Petrikovsky district in Gomel region, the center of Lyaskovichi village council. The administrative center of the National park «Pripyatsky» is located here.
Lyaskovichi is located in the very center of the Belarusian Polesie, in the floodplain of a large Pripyat River. During the flood the Pripyat floodplain becomes a real sea - the width of its spill can reach 30 km, that is why the region is often called Polessye Amazonia.
Such a unique location of Lyaskovichi determines its remoteness from major cities and highways. The agro-town is located at a distance 24 km from the center of the region Petrikov, and from Gomel, the center of the region, at 215 km. It takes to travel 250 km to get to Minsk, the capital of Belarus. A small highway, on which the Lyaskovichi agro-town is located, connects Petrikov and Zhitkovichi.
