Dushanbe, the capital of Tajikistan, literally means "Monday" in Tajik. The name dates back to its early days as a village known for its Monday market.
Today, it's a growing city where Soviet-era buildings meet modern glass towers. Wide parks, national monuments, and tree-lined boulevards give the city a relaxed, welcoming feel.
You'll find culture everywhere — from the grand National Library to museums full of local history, and theaters still drawing in crowds.
Locals call it "a small city with a big heart." If you ever visit this "Monday City," where would you start exploring?
