DRINKING GREEN TEA – Watermarks Tajik and a cup without handle, 900 meters above sea level. Welcome to Dushanbe

That of Tajikistan is the smallest republic in Central Asia, a mountainous nation bordering Afghanistan and China. Spectacular mountains and rivers, but also treasures hidden underground energy. Approaching the city of Dushanbe discover cotton fields, orchards and vineyards, but also sheep, many sheep. Arriving in Dushanbe (900 meters of altitude, in the valley of Gissar), find that the name means “Monday” and that the garden city has a road 10 km long. The course Rudaki, crossing many streets and squares, embraces the most beautiful of those squares (enhanced by the Opera House, and University Library, with a lush garden and a beautiful fountain). http://www.visittajikistan.tj/

Will not have to miss the opportunity to discover the extraordinary collections Tajik (History Museum, Fine Arts and Ethnography), because it is impossible to imagine the beauty of these fine filigree jewelry. Of course, after so much walking, you will thirst. Well, nothing better than to stop “Cajchana” a tea room a must, to enjoy the green tea that was born here, drinking it in a “pjala”, the characteristic cup without handle. You will make an unforgettable trip to the gorge Varzob (admiring the foothills of the Pamir mountains Gissarky), without losing the visit to the fortress of Gissar, among endless vineyards, orchards and cotton fields. http://tajiktourism.com/when-to-visit-tajikistan/
