Tajikistan

Tourism, travel, and recreation

Civil strife has dampened Tajikistan's potential as a tourist site, which was already limited by the destruction of most ancient monuments and buildings by numerous earthquakes (500 in this century alone). Visas are required for entry into Tajikistan and are obtainable upon arrival or through Russian embassies abroad. There are daily flights from Moscow to the capital city of Dushanbe.

According to 1999 UN estimates, the cost of staying in Dushanbe was $187 per day. Elsewhere in the country, estimated travel costs averaged $75 per day.

The above article is discouraging accout of Tajikistan. It is far more butiful a country for nature loving people of the world. The best thing about this country is that you can see the paradise in this world which has been described on holy scriptures like Bible and Quran. Then you can best decide you want to go or not to the promised Paradise.
