Cultural regions of Belarus are historical and ethnographic regions that are located in the boundaries of what is now Belarus and are distinguished by a set of ethnocultural features: ethnic history, nature of settlement, economic activities and tools, folk architecture, arts and crafts, traditional clothing, folklore and local dialects.[1]

According to Viktor Tsitou , these are the ethnographic regions of Belarus:[1]
- Belarusian Dvina Region (Belarusian: Паазер’е, lit. 'Paazer’e' or Падзві́нне, lit. 'Padzvínnie')
- Belarusian Dnieper Region (Belarusian: Беларускае Падняпроўе, lit. 'Bielaruskaje Padniaproŭje')
- Central Belarus (Belarusian: Цэнтра́льная Белару́сь, lit. 'Centráĺnaja Bielarúś')
- Upper Neman Region (Belarusian: Панямонне, lit. 'Paniamonnie')
- Western Polesie and Eastern Polesie
Researchers contest the definitions of these regions. In the case of Padzvinne, the Belarusian historian Vladzimir Auseichyk contests its existence as a unified region and instead writes that there are two regions in that area.[2]
