Dushanbe is the vibrant capital of Tajikistan, a city of republican significance and the beating heart of the country. It is the largest scientific, cultural, political, economic, industrial, and administrative centre in the entire country! Dushanbe is home to the highest state authorities in Tajikistan, including the President's lavish Presidential Palace residence. The city is also home to the highest flag in the world, which has been included in the Guinness Book of Records!

The precise origin of the ancient settlement on the territory of the modern city is unclear. However, research conducted on the territory of Dushanbe has revealed the existence of various household items belonging to ancient people who lived here at the end of the Stone Age, in the Neolithic era, in the 4th-3rd millennium BC. These items are currently on display at the National Museum of Antiquities of Tajikistan in the centre of the country.

Modern Dushanbe is a city where you can experience the vibrant energy of the East, and at the same time, it is the cultural, economic, and political centre of the country. The city boasts a monument to the founder of the Tajik state, Ismail Somoni, and a statue of the poet Rudaki, the founder of Tajik-Persian classical poetry. You simply have to see the wonderful fountains in Rudaki Park, illuminated beautifully at night. The city's Islamic architecture is exemplified by the mosque and madrasah of Haji Yakub.

Dushanbe underwent a radical transformation during the years of independence. In the past 30 years, the National Library, the National Museum of Tajikistan, the cultural complex “Kohi (Palace) Navruz”, the “Istiqlol (Freedom) Monument”, the “Siyoma Mall”, the “Mehrgan Bazaar” and a number of other buildings have been constructed in our capital. These impressive structures have become the pride of the residents of the capital.

The capital of Tajikistan boasts a range of modern hotels, including the Serena, Hyatt Regency Dushanbe, Sheraton, Tajikistan, Kangurt and Rumi.

Our capital boasts a plethora of museums, including the National Museum of Tajikistan, the National Museum of Antiquities of Tajikistan, the Museum of Ethnography, the Museum of Musical Instruments named after G. Zavkibekov, the House Museum of S. Aini, and the House Museum of M. Tursunzade.

The number of tourists wishing to see Tajikistan is increasing year on year. Last year, over one million foreign visitors came to the country. While previously the main flow was from CIS countries, now most of the travelers are residents of far-flung abroad, including the USA and Europe.
