Babek or Babak (Azerbaijani: Babək) is a rayon of Azerbaijan Republic in the Nakhchivan Autonomous Republic. It surrounds but does not include Nakhchivan City and was formerly known as Nakhchivan. The current name honours Babak Khorramdin, who led a 23-year-long uprising against the Abbasid Caliphate in Iran.
