Varzob Valley near
Dushanbe is a welcome haven of rest and resplendent beauty for anyone feeling
fatigued from city noise or the never-ending parade of ruins. A beloved leisure
spot among Dushanbe’s residents, the valley is known for its scenic views, lofty
mountain grandeur and accessibility from the city. Hidden within the valley is
Gusgarf Waterfall, 30 meters of fresh mountain water cascading ceaselessly from
a high rocky cliff in the Hissar Mountain Range, a true piece of untouched
nature. 

Located at the
confluence of the Varzob and Kafernihon rivers, Dushanbe was a small village
until the early twentieth century. As part of the Soviet Union, the
central government transformed the area into a center
for cotton and silk production.

Only 5-km from the
capital is the Varzob mountain resort.  A narrow road through small
villages will twist you up to Varzob – a delightful place with stunning views
of high mountains and the foamy rapid river in the valley.
