Traveller Stories
“Rudaki Park is a beautifully maintained green space in the middle of Khujand. The statue is very impressive, and the gardens were a perfect place to relax after the drive from Dushanbe.”
“It is wonderful to see how Tajikistan honors Rudaki. The park is vast and cultural. We enjoyed walking near the fountains and learning about the history of the poet.”
“The connection between Persian and Tajik culture is very strong here. The archways remind me of Mughal architecture. A very poetic and inspiring place to visit.”
“We visited in the evening when the fountains were lit up. It was magical. The park is lively with locals, yet spacious enough to find a quiet bench. Highly recommended.”
