In evidenza
Not far (60 km) from the capital of Tajikistan – Dushanbe is located the historical and natural Park Shirkent, which is famous for its prehistoric attractions - dinosaur tracks. Shirkent is mainly known for fossilized dinosaur footprints. The animal that left these prints is attributed to a new genus and species Macropodasaurusgravis, there are still no analogues of these five-toed dinosaur footprints in the world. In total, eight locations of dinosaur footprints have been registered in our republic. Three of them are located in the mountains of the Shirkent River gorge. The monument of inanimate nature unites about 50 unique objects as: geological, hydrological, glaciological. The most significant in this series are three different age locations of dinosaur footprints, with the total number of footprints of extinct lizards more than 400. For tourists, there is a wide choice of routes for every taste, and mountain climbers expect snow-capped peaks that keep their inviolability.

About Dushanbe
Dushanbe is the green capital of Tajikistan, set in a valley beneath the Hissar mountains, with tree-lined avenues, teahouses, bazaars and mountain roads.
Dushanbe lies in a valley in western Tajikistan, with snow-capped Hissar mountains to the north, and takes its name from the Persian word for Monday, after a market that once met there. Wide avenues lined with plane trees and fountains run through the city, and Rudaki Park is named for the medieval Persian-language poet Rudaki. The Rohat teahouse, with its tiled and carved interior, is a favourite meeting place.
