Hisor Fortress
Our city tour will start with a visit to Hissor Fortress, one of the main historical sights of the country, about half an hour's drive from the city. The fortress was built about 3000 years ago, during the heyday, when the routes of the Great Silk Road passed near Hissar. The Hissar Fortress is one of the oldest and largest architectural monuments of Central Asia. Now it is an open-air museum with an area of 86 hectares, located on the site of an ancient settlement. It is located 30 km from the capital of Tajikistan. For a long time, the Hissar fortress served as the residence of the governor of the Emir of Bukhara. To date, only two cylindrical towers and structures around the main gate, forming a pointed arch, and built on the instructions of the emir of Bukhara in the XVI century.
National Museum of Antiquities
The Museum is proud to own artifacts of the Eneolithic and Bronze Age from the agricultural settlement of Sarazm, a site included in the UNESCO World Heritage list. The finds dating from the Hellenistic period coming from the Oxus Temple excavated at the site of Takht-i Sangin on the banks of the Amu Darya River are unique. The highlight of the Museum is the "Buddha in Nirvana", an almost 13-meter statue made of clay, which is today one of the largest ancient monuments of Buddhism in the world.

Great city but not so exciting!

4.00The city is clean and beautiful with lovely parks and flowers (late May) but who wants to see only old statues and memorials?? Many Cafes and restaurants but unfortunately it was Eid holiday that day and everything was closed , couldnt even exchange money as banks were closed. Restaurants dont accept cards or dollars, only local currency. we had to borrow from our kind guide. The museum visit was boring!! Most Tajik museums are not well presented although the content is pretty ok. Toilets are horrible although you pay to use- dirty and stinking!! Hissar fortress is a good place to visit ..but not in summer!! the best thing about Dushanbe are the friendly locals!
Fantastic tour

5.00Dilik was my tour guide and gave me a very detailed overview of Dushanbe and Hisor, while showing me the main highlights of both. He was on time and drove safely. Overall a great intro to Dushanbe. The next day I also took a transfer to Samarkand with them which went smoothly. Recommended!

5.00the hisor fortress is a short drive (24km) from dushanbe and the area is quite small so its sort of a quick stop. then some stops at the city center, parliament, museum, and the big mosque of dushanbe. behruz is a prompt and professional guide and i can see he is working hard despite being new. i asked him to drop me off at the airport instead of the hotel and he agreed, so that was nice.
Nice to learn about different cultures. Very knowledgeable tour guide at the fortress.
