Bitastub (Tagdamun: Bitastub, Cienugueza: Bitastó or Jaquipe, Tsinsat: 冰水市), officially known as the City of Bitastub, is a large city located in eastern Qenuga located in the state of Lembarive. It is the capital and largest city of the state, with a population of over 5.847 million as of 3390. Bitastub is located along the Lembarive Peninsula; the city closest to Bitastub is Kipuksungi to the northeast.

Bitastub has maintained a good reputation in the shipbuilding and shipping industries, with companies such as Jaquipe Shipping dominating the national shipbuilding industry for over a millennium. Since the present-day, Bitastub as the Daruza capital Jaquipe, was an important port city nationally and globally, alongside modern-day Sofide, Gerona, Aytingin, Salvací, and Figayace. In modern-day Qenuga, Bitastub still maintains its position as the "Shipbuilding City of Qenuga" and in riverine transportation as many of the port cities waned in relevance throughout the centuries.
