"BY THE FOOTSTEPS OF SILVER MINERS ON THE SILK ROAD"
Project «Development of mountain regions of the Republic Tajikistan through
tourism»
Travel company LLC Javohirtour, in partnership with USAID's Future Growth
Initiative, started the development of four new tourist routes by regions with weak
economic indicators. The main goal of the project is to create jobs for the local
communities by involving them in tourism services. One of the main criteria to select
the location for the future route was to choose the remote areas with rich historical,
cultural and natural attractions, but rare visited and little known from the point of
tourism.
The area we choose for our first route was the ancient city of miners in Bozordara valley,
called Samarqandak, located in 4000 m elevation of Eastern Pamir Mountains. The ruins of
this ancient city, nowadays serves as the silent witnesses of once developed trading cities
along the ancient Silk Road.
Among the ruins, the archeologists found a caravanserai, a building plots with residential
buildings (more than 80 of them), and ancient cemetery with over 500 graves. The living
quarters of ancient city were equipped with sufas and hearths. Among the public buildings,
the ruins of the administrative complex, Fire Temple, a bath with heating system type of a
kan (under the floor) have been preserved. According to Bubnova (an archeology who
found the miners city) research around 1200 - 1500 people lived in the city at the in the
midst of civilization. The city appeared in the 11th century in the Eastern Pamirs, during the
so-called "silver crisis" when silver deposits of Pamirs began to be intensively used. To
control the workers and protect the silver required huge human efforts, so gradually people
built a big city called Samarqandak, which means a little Samarqand. Little by little, the city
become a big trading center along the Silk Road, famous by the name Bozordara. (the
valley of markets).
The second place we add to this route, was a village located in Ishkashim district of
Wakhan valley called Ryn. This village differs from the other villages of Tajikistan by its
unique language. The language used by the habitants of Ryn is known as a pearl in the
world of linguistics – only the people of Ryn and nowhere else in the world use this
language. This small village has it own language, which survived through the centuries and
still alive. This ancient language has an important place in the system of Indo-European
languages and some efforts have been made by UNESCO to preserve it. Currently, this
Ryni language is spoken by the people of only two villages on the right bank of Pyanj River
— the village of Ryn (1000 speakers) and Sumjin (360 speakers) in Tajikistan. Residents of
the of Ryn village of Gorna-Badakhshan Autonomous Region, as the bulk of the speakers
of this language, are doing their best to develop and preserve this language as one of the
most important assets of their ancestors.
Based on these interesting facts, we decided to name the route "By the footsteps of the
Silk Road Miners" and we assure you that this is like a drop in the ocean among all the
wonders of Gorno Badakhshan Autonomous Oblast, more famous to outsiders as High
Pamirs. We invite you to explore it yourself during your trips to Tajikistan.

Itinerary 3. Wondering star - Khushtarita valley
Project «Development of mountain regions of the Republic Tajikistan through
tourism»
Travel company LLC Javohirtour, in partnership with USAID's Future Growth Initiative,
started the development of four new tourist routes by regions with weak economic
indicators. The main goal of the project is to create jobs for the local communities by
involving them in tourism services. One of the main criteria to select the location for
the future route was to choose the remote areas with rich historical, cultural and
natural attractions, but rare visited and little known from the point of tourism.
Wondering star – Khushtarita valley
Khushtarita – in ancient Sogdian language means "Very beautiful valley" Indeed, Khushtarita
is gorgeous valley located in 2000 m elevation above sea level, in the heart of Fan Mountains.
The first reason for choosing the Khushtarita Valley is that due to its geographical location, this
valley can serve as a key point for the beginning of most of the famous hiking trails in the Fan
Mountains. Based in the valley, you can go on one-day and multi-day treks to almost all sides
of the Fan Mountains. The villages around Khushtarita could be added to the list of the most
remote settlements of Tajikistan, where the descendants of the ancient Sogdians live. One of
the main attractions of this route is the village of Voru. Vo – means open and Ru means face,
so in ancient Sogdian language Voru means "Open face"
Voru located under the mountain, but the local houses built on top of each other at an
inclination of almost 70 degrees! Indeed, the village looks like the open face. All this looks like
a giant anthill. All this looks very unusual in comparison with other settlements around.
Following the route, you will enjoy not only the beauty of these trek and get acquainted with
traditions, culture and lifestyle of locals, you will also contribute to the development of the
economy of the locals inhabited these beautiful, but remote and underdeveloped areas.

lake of Payron (the lake of angels) and fantastic beautiful Timurdara lake (a favorite lake
of Tamerlane) which ends in Hakimi village, where the fried delicious King Fish (Forel)
and cold bear are waiting for visitors.
By the legends the route we choose for this trekking, once used by Alexander the Great during

TOURS ON THE GREAT SILK ROAD
"The Great Silk Road" - words that cause us to associate with caravans filled with exotic goods, which, bypassing the sultry deserts, mountain cliffs, being exposed to dangers, for several months, stubbornly moved from the flourishing and rich cities of the Mediterranean, the Middle East through the Central Asia to the mysterious "people of silk", as the Chinese were called in antiquity.
Was there such a road in reality and how did it go, or were there several equivalent paths, or maybe the Great Silk Road is a collective name symbolizing the eternal mutual interest of the West in the East and vice versa?
The Great Silk Road played an outstanding role in the transfer of material and cultural values, linking together the peculiar and unique civilizations of the Near, Middle and Far East, Central Asia. The very name "The Great Silk Road" in relation to this international route was first applied in 1877 by the German geographer Ferdinand von Richthofen. The history of the Great Silk Road testifies to the flourishing of civilizations. Often, war chariots rushed along the roads beaten by peaceful merchants, and the clatter of hooves, the clanking of weapons replaced the measured sounds of a bell on a camel's neck. Cities perished, peoples and religions left the historical arena, old paths and caravanserais were filled with sand, but they were replaced by new arteries, along the northern steppe routes or along the southern high-mountain routes. The Great Silk Road has its own prehistory, going back to the oldest historical layers to the III-II millennium BC, as evidenced by numerous archaeological finds discovered many thousands of kilometers from the place of their production.
The first way - "Sogdian"
Route: "Kokand - Isfara - Kanibadam - Khojent - Ura-Tyube - Bunjinat (Shahristan) - Varzminor (Aini) - Penjikent - Zeravshan - Anzob - Dushanbe"
Our route starts from the western end of the Fergana Valley, which the Chinese called Davan. From here the famous "heavenly" horses were delivered to the western and eastern countries. From the Fergana city of Chust, the traditional black-and-white skullcap of Chust spread widely throughout Central Asia. A whole chain of cities - Kashgar, Osh, Andijan, Fergana, Kokand - lead this segment of the way to Isfara, buried in greenery of apricot orchards.
Isfara is mentioned in Babur's memoirs (15th century) as a city. The mountainous district of Isfara was inhabited by people back in the Stone Age. In the 1st millennium BC, Iranian-speaking nomads lived here - the Saks, who left numerous burial mounds and burial grounds. There are also many fortified mountain castles built in the 4th-7th centuries. ad. One of the earliest castles, Kalai Zumradshokh, was located on the territory of the current Zumrad sanatorium. In Isfara and in the villages adjacent to it, many monuments of archeology, architecture and art have been preserved.
One of the famous architectural monuments is located in the village of Navgilem. This is a mosque-madrasah of Abdullakhan, built by order of Sheibanid Abdulkhan II, who ruled in 1583-1598. The time of its construction is noted in the chronogram corresponding to 1585-1586 years. In 1909, in the center of the eastern part of the courtyard, a certain Said Alibay built a high minaret. To the south of Isfara, in the village of Chorku, surrounded by late buildings, there is the Khazrati Shokh mazar, the only surviving wooden mausoleum of the 10th-11th centuries. The ancient mausoleum is located inside a late adobe building, like a pearl in a shell, and has seven columns, a frieze with Kufic Arabic inscriptions, an inlaid ceiling, eight figured consoles and inlaid shields decorated with elegant ornamental carvings.

Was there such a road in reality and how did it go, or were there several equivalent paths, or maybe the Great Silk Road is a collective name symbolizing the eternal mutual interest of the West in the East and vice versa?
The Great Silk Road played an outstanding role in the transfer of material and cultural values, linking together the peculiar and unique civilizations of the Near, Middle and Far East, Central Asia. The very name "The Great Silk Road" in relation to this international route was first applied in 1877 by the German geographer Ferdinand von Richthofen. The history of the Great Silk Road testifies to the flourishing of civilizations. Often, war chariots rushed along the roads beaten by peaceful merchants, and the clatter of hooves, the clanking of weapons replaced the measured sounds of a bell on a camel's neck. Cities perished, peoples and religions left the historical arena, old paths and caravanserais were filled with sand, but they were replaced by new arteries, along the northern steppe routes or along the southern high-mountain routes. The Great Silk Road has its own prehistory, going back to the oldest historical layers to the III-II millennium BC, as evidenced by numerous archaeological finds discovered many thousands of kilometers from the place of their production.
The first way - "Sogdian"
Route: "Kokand - Isfara - Kanibadam - Khojent - Ura-Tyube - Bunjinat (Shahristan) - Varzminor (Aini) - Penjikent - Zeravshan - Anzob - Dushanbe"
Our route starts from the western end of the Fergana Valley, which the Chinese called Davan. From here the famous "heavenly" horses were delivered to the western and eastern countries. From the Fergana city of Chust, the traditional black-and-white skullcap of Chust spread widely throughout Central Asia. A whole chain of cities - Kashgar, Osh, Andijan, Fergana, Kokand - lead this segment of the way to Isfara, buried in greenery of apricot orchards.
Isfara is mentioned in Babur's memoirs (15th century) as a city. The mountainous district of Isfara was inhabited by people back in the Stone Age. In the 1st millennium BC, Iranian-speaking nomads lived here - the Saks, who left numerous burial mounds and burial grounds. There are also many fortified mountain castles built in the 4th-7th centuries. ad. One of the earliest castles, Kalai Zumradshokh, was located on the territory of the current Zumrad sanatorium. In Isfara and in the villages adjacent to it, many monuments of archeology, architecture and art have been preserved.
One of the famous architectural monuments is located in the village of Navgilem. This is a mosque-madrasah of Abdullakhan, built by order of Sheibanid Abdulkhan II, who ruled in 1583-1598. The time of its construction is noted in the chronogram corresponding to 1585-1586 years. In 1909, in the center of the eastern part of the courtyard, a certain Said Alibay built a high minaret. To the south of Isfara, in the village of Chorku, surrounded by late buildings, there is the Khazrati Shokh mazar, the only surviving wooden mausoleum of the 10th-11th centuries. The ancient mausoleum is located inside a late adobe building, like a pearl in a shell, and has seven columns, a frieze with Kufic Arabic inscriptions, an inlaid ceiling, eight figured consoles and inlaid shields decorated with elegant ornamental carvings.
