Inside Modern Food Bazaar In Dushanbe, Tajikistan 🇹🇯

Another "Stan" country, not many people know about. "Isetan" is the old Persian word for "place of." In this case, Tajikistan means "place of the Tajiks." In Persian, "taj" means "crown," and "ik" means "head." Thus Tajik means a "person who wears a crown." How cool, right?

I love how the countries in Central Asia are in close proximity to each other, yet they are distinctive in terms of language, currency, food, traditions, and nature. Each country's unique specialty sets it apart from the others.

Dushanbe is surprisingly such a clean city, with so many modern buildings. But, Dushanbe lacks Soviet architecture when compared to other Central Asian capitals. But this absence isn't accidental. Since Tajikistan gained independence, its authorities have been actively removing as many Soviet-era buildings as possible and replacing them with contemporary structures to highlight its new sovereign identity.

If you don't speak Russian, traveling here can be challenging as English proficiency is lacking. But I can assure you that you will have wonderful memories and unforgettable experiences in the capital city of Tajikistan. 🇹🇯
