Pamir Highway. Tajikistan. Part 2. Cities, Villages and People

So, we are driving through Tajikistan.
The road takes us to Khujand city. This is one of the oldest cities in Central Asia and the place where Alexander the Great founded the most distant Greek settlement — Alexandria Eschate, which preserved Hellenistic culture for about 300 years. Later, Khujand was part of various countries and empires, including the USSR, and is now the second largest city in Tajikistan.
