Silkroad: Tajikistan Photo

Photographer’s Note

Silkroad travels: Pamir
This is our Mexmonxona (=Guest house) "Azisbek" in Murghab, the best available. Never mind the hole in the roof, it rains so rarely. To the left you see a typical Russian washstand. This guesthouse had electricity to recharge our accus, hot water and a sauna! In the workshop area you find a happy customer.

Hallo Dieter!
Was für ein einladendes "Hotel"! Gut, dass man so etwas auch einmal sieht. Die Satellitenschüsseln sehen bei diesem Gebäudezustand fast lächerlich aus. Das ws-Bild mit diesem freundlichen Gesicht ist ein richtiges Kontrastprogramm!
Grüße aus Siegen - mit 2 cm Schnee! Tief, nicht lang! ;-)

A very interesting and appropriate shot on TE. I hope to travel these areas one day, and this is an excellent glimpse into what I may expect. I love staying in simple guesthouses like these ones. How much did a night here set you back?

You have some soft light on the building, and the mountains in the background look good.

Regards,
David

well if it rains so little how the hell this place get infested by millions of mosquitoes at least they were ther in july few years back
and if people and accomodation was ok for sure
the constant warding off including the locals!!!
was just enough to make us jump on our bike next morning in the same time by passing the payement of the 20$ at the police station which later on in dushambe gave us a nasty encounter with the flying saucer like cap of
some dangerous police just looking for the occasion to make some extra money,hey we made it since living in the east for 35 years helped us to deal with this sort of situation successfully,love dushambe anyway
