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/
