We talk about the most beautiful places worth visiting if you are going to Tajikistan.
Pamir
A mountain system that claims to be the most beautiful place on the list. The road there takes from 12 hours by car, but the beautiful views compensate for the long trip.
In the Pamirs, it is worth visiting the Botanical Garden and Chorbog, which means four gardens, take a walk around the city and enjoy the clean air. Outdoor enthusiasts can swim in the river water, go fishing, climb the mountains. We recommend walking to Khufak, from there you can see the whole of Khorog at a glance. And if you go even higher, you can find a source that supplies water to the entire Khorog.
We advise you to try the local dish Shirchay, which includes milk, black tea and walnuts.
