Taşkent is a city and a district in the Turkish province of Konya . Since a regional reform in 2014, the municipality ( Belediye ) is congruent with the district ( İlçe ).

The district is located in the extreme south of the province. It is bordered by Hadim to the west and north , Karaman Province to the east and south, and Antalya Province to the southwest . The D-340 trunk road runs through Taşkent and connects Beyşehir in the north with Mut in the southeast. Bozdağ Tepesi is located in the south of the mountainous district at 2133 meters.
