5 Sacred & Religious Sites in Dushanbe That You Shouldn't Miss

October 14, 2021 Tynisha Seiler

Translating to "Monday" in Tajik, Dushanbe was once a tiny mountain village known for its Monday market. Today that village has become a metropolis, but the Barakat covered market remains one of the most vibrant attractions in the city. Dushanbe's wide, tree-lined avenues are home to a number of monuments and museums, including the Unified Museum and the Museum of Antiquities, as well as a beautiful opera theater and myriad cafes and teahouses where visitors can sample Tajik sweets.

Haji Yaqub Mosque

This is a must visit when in the city. The architecture as well as the interior are beautiful. Do note as conservative dress code and head skarf are required for ladies. They are pretty strict on dress code.
