- For the final video from central Asia, I traveled to Tajikistan. While there, I learned about the Pamir Mountains. A complex region with lots of ongoing problems surrounded by unfriendly neighbors. On this journey, I explored the Gorno-Badakhshan region and the Pamir Highway. The video showcases the stunning landscapes, the region's unique culture, and the challenges of traveling through this remote region. Enjoy!

Check out how I continued and crossed the impossible, war closed border, into Kyrgyzstan on my Instagram.
Памир-крыша мира! отличный сюжет! для многих людей, это экзотические места.
Thanks for a raw emotional journey. The melody on the duduk at the end of your video was solemn and haunting, voicing the land and people. ❤️ from Oregon 🇺🇸.
Thank you for the support!
Oh woah! Such an inspiring journey to the Pamir Mountains in Tajikistan,Pavel! You're a top traveller of the most remote places! I really enjoyed your last Asian vlog as much as I enjoyed with the South American ones. :))) That is a great guide for those who seeking about remote destinations in Tajikistan. Very different country from Kyrgzistan or Kazakistan etc. :)
🙂
Great video! Thank you for that I would be great if you could film a little bit longer the soviet buildings, like the observatory.
Sounds good! Will note it.
Thanks for the video! You bring me to the remote parts of the world that i would otherwise not know about. I wouldn’t mind longer videos either- more food if possible. I know gardens may not be your thing but that probably would have been my favorite part of the journey since I love plants haha. Thanks again 👏
I’m glad my content is being appreciated by the viewers! Unfortunately, for the gardens - there would need to be another channel 🤣
Patience is the key, I guess
100%
Bravo! nice video
Thanks!
nice production 🎉
Thanks!
Nice video! Here in my department, we have also some houses made of containers and woods. I am happy you had a very nice trip there! ;)
The area with containers is a market.
Nice video mate! Really informative . By the way,did you cross the border from Tajik to Kyrg? Any clue if the border is open for tourists in 2024?
Thanks! I crossed from Tj to Kg. During my recent travels it was open to foreigners with the permission letter from Kg tourism department.
@@pauvelasCould you provide information on how to acquire the permission letter online? I'm planning to cross the border on a motorcycle? Additionally, could you suggest the ideal month for this trip? Thanks

@@pauvelas Done. Have sent you a text.
… and that’s why we always rent a car 😅
Definitely comfortable, but changes the whole experience. On that note, I would rent a car next time, I had enough. 🫣
Did you book a tour? If yes, which agency was it. I am going there soon.
@VinitMehta1989 No, just found transportation in every city and explored on my own.

Bro I watched only few minutes of you video and I gotta say, you got almost all of your information about the place wrong. The Pamir Highway does not go through Afg, the civil war did not start because of Pamiris uprising and also couple of other things. We are glad you visited our land and we welcome you here but please check your information before you post it.
The civil war had several causes but the main opposition group was from Gorno-Badakhshan region that lead the war. Regarding the start of Pamir highway is debatable. However, as I mentioned in the video, begins in Afghanistan, ends in Osh. I travel the Soviet built part. The facts were checked!
20:21 Bullshit. Pakistan is the most scenic among all STAN countries.
For you! Not for the Korean traveler.
