Kokhi Navruz

The complex building begun in 2009 and completed in September 2014. From the very beginning the complex – “Kohi Navruz” was planned as the biggest national tea house in Central Asia, but in the process of building it turned into a real museum of national handicrafts of Tajik people. The whole territory of the complex including fountains, summer pavilions and garden – takes more than four hectares. Approximately four thousands of craftsmen from all parts of Tajikistan were involved in the process of building. Generally, the handicrafts of the complex are about forty thousand sq. m., they are: decorative wood carving of colon and ceilings, wall decorations: woodcarving, Florentine mosaic in colored mirrors, painted ceilings. Height of the biggest cupola is forty meters. The complex has seven lifts, including panorama elevator, bowling, billiard, movie theater 3D, night club, shop art gallery and a small national teahouse, but the most breathtaking side of the building is its halls.

National Museum of Antiquities

Reviewed By carolas936 - Marietta, United States

Dushambe has two museums with historical artifacts: the newer and larger National Museum of Tajikistan (on the north side of Rudaki Park), and the older and smaller National Museum of Antiquities (at the intersection of Istravshan Street and Academics Rajabov Street). NMoT has four floors of exhibits on Tajik geology, flora and fauna as well as artifacts and historical reconstructions. NMoA is the real deal: selected artifacts from Zoroastrian, Buddhist, Hellenistic, Islamic and Pamir cultures are displayed on two floors. The best is the Buddha in Nirvana, a 13 meter statue of Buddha peacefully lying on his right side from the Kushan era (500 AD) excavated from Ajina-Tepe. Also of note is "the princess", a flexed burial with beads and other grave goods from an archaeological site in Sarazm (near Penjikent). Burial markers, ceramics, tapestries, carved ivory and other artifacts illustrate the rich blending of cultures influencing Tajikistan over the ages. The museum is open 9-5 Tues to Saturday, 9-1 Sunday and closed Monday. The admission charge is 50 TJS. Tour guides are available (highly recommended) speaking Tajik, Russian, and English. There is a public toilet in the museum. Cafes and restaurants are available on nearby Rudaki Street.
