Zilupe is a town of a few hundred inhabitants in Latvia, by the Zilupe River, on the border with Russia. Zilupe's railway station is the final station for the Riga-Zilupe train route, which is one of the longest passenger rail routes in Latvia. The town first began to take shape during construction of the line in 1900, the station taking the name Rozenova, after the former landowner.
The town is near the A12 road, that after the border crossing into Russia turns into M9, both of which are part of European route E22.
