A journey between majestic mountains and ancient cultures.
Tajikistan, a Treasure of Landscapes and Hospitality
Between the civil war of 1992-1997 and the conflicts in the neighboring Afghan mountains, the country has been severely affected, but the situation is improving and stabilizing. So much so that breathtaking areas like the Wakhan Corridor and the Pamir Mountains, dubbed by Anglo-Saxons as the "Pamir Highway" - a must for thrill-seekers - are traveled by many cyclists, motorcyclists, and even hikers. The tourist guide to Tajikistan will take you from its capital Dushanbe to the ancient sites of the country, notably Penjikent and Hissar, but also to the lakes region in the Fan Mountains, between Penjikent and Samarkand. Visitors who have already traveled in Central Asia will furthermore be delighted to meet the descendants of the Persian-speaking Iranian populations of the region, whose language and ways of living differ from surrounding countries, but where you still find the same hospitality, the same smiles, the same curiosity about others... with the sumptuous backdrop of the roofs of the world!
