From Tashkent to ancient Khujand

About this activity

Khujand, one of Central Asia’s most fascinating cities, is the focus of this memorable tour. Khujand is one of the oldest cities in Central Asia, the second largest city in Tajikistan, located in the northern part of the country, on the Syr Darya River in the Fergana Valley. Founded more than 2,500 years ago, Khujand has witnessed the passage of Alexander the Great’s armies (his wife Roxana was from this region), the arrival of Islam in the 7th century, devastation during the Mongol invasions of the 13th century, and a great cultural and economic flourishing in the Middle Ages as an important hub along the Great Silk Road.

This full-day tour from Tashkent offers the perfect opportunity to explore the city’s highlights, including the historic Khujand Fortress, the lively Panjshanbe Bazaar, and a variety of museums and mosques. Spending a day in Tajikistan is a wonderful way to experience something new, visit a neighboring country, and deepen your understanding of the region’s rich history and culture.
