Dushanbe Travel Guide
Tajikistan
Dushanbe is the capital of Tajikistan, with a population of 986,899. It is the country’s main urban centre and a practical base for exploring Tajikistan.
Most international visitors arrive through Dushanbe Airport (DYU), which serves the city directly. Dushanbe is inland, and there are no notable named beaches within 40 kilometres, so trips here are focused on the city and the surrounding mountain region rather than the coast.

Tipping: Tipping is not widely practiced in Tajikistan, but it is becoming more common, especially in tourist-oriented establishments. It is always appreciated for good service.
