Foreigners arriving in Dushanbe for the first time will have the impression that this city is too shabby. Except for several government office buildings around Somoni Square, other buildings seem to be left over decades ago. Gray and shabby. The highest floor is only 12 or 13 floors. It is said that this is seismic belt , it is not suitable to build high-rise buildings. These low buildings are rough and a mixture of different cultures. Existing architecture Soviet Russia It seems quite stupid, and there is no lack of Arab style exquisite decoration. On the whole, it gives people a feeling of being outdated.
But as long as you stay in Dushanbe for a while, you will find that it is a very pure city. Her area is small, with a population of only 700000, which is at most equivalent to a special state or region in China. This is an oasis surrounded by rolling mountains. Climb up the hill where the Victory Museum is located in the east and overlook the whole city. The Dushanbe River is like a soft ribbon winding up a fan like open and flat urban area. As the line of sight moves northward, the snow mountains not far away that never melt all the year round seem to be stacked together, reflecting a bright, clean and gentle light under the blue sky. Snowy mountain melting Snow water Little by little, branch by branch, from top to bottom, it converges into the cold and swift Dushanbe River, which moistens fertile soil, irrigates fertile fields and nurtures the city. In the midsummer, these snow mountains are like a huge Banana fan To cool down the hot city.
I'm afraid Dushanbe's greatest feature is her excellent greening. No matter which residential area you stop in, it is surrounded by green trees, green trees, and "birds crow everywhere". Tall and sturdy poplar Sophora japonica Trees red maple Wait till the sky is blue. Low position, Cherry And all kinds of small trees with flowers. The decoration on the ground is rose chinese rose rose And colorful flowers that are unknown. Dushanbe has surprisingly many roses. In the shop, roses are sold all year round. During festivals and weddings, people give roses to loved ones, relatives and friends. In the center and on both sides of the main street, red, yellow and white roses run for several kilometers. No wonder people here often boast that we Duchamp are the favorite rose Walking in the path and wandering in the street, the fragrance of roses will be everywhere.

Dushanbe
Dushanbe is basically a city without industrial pollution. Living here, almost never cold There is no heavy smoke and black fog from the forest chimneys, and there is no large amount of Vehicle emissions It's suffocating Harmful gas There is no crowded, noisy and angry crowd. Every family here uses electricity and gas. The population is small, and there are not many cars. If the greening is done well, the air is certainly fresh. Because of the limited Automobile pollution It has been purified by green trees. You will often be surprised that the sky here is always so blue, the night is always so bright, and the trees are always so dark green Green, people are always so simple and natural. Occasionally, the adverse wind blows the smoke and dust from cement plants in the countryside into the city, and Turkmenistan and Uzbekistan sand storm The leftover grains blown over are gray all over the sky, but not many times a year. So you can't see that people are worried about their health. There is no morning exercise, no sports meet. They don't need exercise, and their bodies are naturally strong. It all benefits from beautiful scenery, pure air and natural lifestyle.
Walking around Dushanbe, you will be surprised that almost no one smokes here. No matter on the street, or many public occasions No one is standing by and holding a cigarette in his fingers or mouth like no one else, puffing and throwing cigarette butts recklessly. There are no cigarette advertisements, and the places where cigarettes are placed in the shops are very inconspicuous. Especially in the bus or minibus, you can't smell the pungent, chest lung splitting Cigarette The foul smell of. Don't worry about ash falling on your new coat or burning a black hole in your beautiful shirt at any time. You will be glad to be in a smoke-free country and enjoy the natural air.
Of course, you will also see one or two women in the coffee shop with slender legs and slender hands Smoke Hold your head high and puke smoke ring , talking and laughing with men. But it is purely a pretense of elegance and attention. It can't be compared with the smoker who loves smoking as much as his life.
But if you draw the conclusion that Tajik people have nothing to do with tobacco, it is totally wrong. On the street and beside the market, you can see many vendors selling green powder packed in small plastic bags. Foreigners arriving in Dushanbe for the first time must be puzzled: what is this used for? In fact, it is cigarette powder, not for smoking, but for food. Why we use this way to satisfy our addiction to tobacco is to eat it instead of affecting the health of others, or tobacco tastes more delicious than smoking. It is also unclear.
Dushanbe
The way of smoking tobacco above can cause many daydreams. Maybe tobacco is used by humans, especially men, to release surplus Libido A way of. Or for Relax . A way to calm emotions. Or it is used to sort out thoughts and generate inspiration. Or a magic weapon used to temporarily transcend and forget. I'm afraid they are all a little bit.
stay Tajikistan People's smoking is purely personal rather than social. You can't see three groups or five groups offering cigarettes to each other, spreading cigarettes to each other, or seeing the miasma mist-shrouded The scene of tears choking people. They also eat cigarettes quietly, as if they were afraid of being found, and spit out the cigarette residue after eating. They seem to realize that the smoke they breathe out is harmful to the health of others, so they choose this way.

Around Dushanbe, there are many mountains, some steep and some bald. There are few trees, even grass. Therefore, this oasis in the city is particularly precious. People love and enjoy the green land with all their heart. Human life is closely related to the oasis, and human character is also inseparable from this oasis. Oasis cultivates the personality of others in Duchamp --- friendly, modest, courteous and reasonable.
It's interesting to see Tajik people greet each other. They usually don't say anything first, but press their left hand on their chest, lean forward slightly, and stretch out their right hand to hold the other's right hand. Then they stick their cheeks from left to right, or forehead Touch each other gently. Then start greeting. When women meet, they stick their faces to the left and right. This process is very intimate and friendly. It's very enviable. such Meeting gift It is probably also the product of the blending of Eastern and Western cultures.
Dushanbe
The friendliness of Tajiks can be best reflected by taking buses and minibuses. They are very warm and friendly to foreigners, but also to their own people. They will never favor one over the other. Needless to say, young people often give up their seats to women and children to adults. When you buy a ticket and ask someone to pass on the money, you don't need to thank them. When you pass on the money to someone else, you don't need to expect them to thank you. It seems that everyone has reached a tacit agreement: this is right. Everyone is for me, and I am for everyone. Words of thanks are superfluous. When the driver sees someone crossing the road at the intersection or other places, he will take the initiative to stop the car and use his palm to signal pedestrians to pass first. After all the pedestrians have passed, they can start driving again. When the car is full, the driver will grasp the situation Steering wheel , and the other hand gently spread out to express regret. There are always bumps in the carriage, but you can hardly see people blowing their beards, glaring and getting angry because of the intrusion of their personal limit space, and can't hear their feet being trampled or being trampled Abductor The roaring, abusive, and even abusive sound from the collision. Everything is quiet. Everyone bears and understands each other until they reach their destination. You have to admire their patience and will involuntarily respect them.
Most Tajiks live a leisurely life. They advocate freedom and despise the erosion and restriction of time on people's hearts. They don't let me adapt to time, but let time be used by me. They always treat time with such ability Inclusion Don't pursue accuracy, just focus on the general. This pair Europe and America It is difficult for Japanese and Chinese to understand. They do things in a leisurely manner, and can understand if they are late. When you are waiting for the bus or waiting for someone, you are worried, anxious and angry because you are late.
Dushanbe
The most amazing thing is that people here never seem to haggle over, say rude words or even make big fights for a small matter. The scene of quarreling and swearing seems to have nothing to do with them. People always like to talk softly. In shops and fairs, people bargain for mutual benefit, never for one or two Somoni and Dirham Red in the face or red in the heart. Don't look at these people Bushy eyebrow Black Eye's beard is a bit scary, but his behavior is quite gentle. From well-dressed gentlemen to rustic farmers, they should do what they want and do things simply, without wordiness, dishonesty or wrangling. Because they are polite, reasonable and self disciplined. The religious spirit that permeates their bones deeply affects them. The trauma caused by the civil war ten years ago also had a profound negative impact on their education.
In almost everything globalization Today, people are flocking to the so-called civilization, elegance and modern fashion, but they have gradually forgotten and lost some primitive, simple and beautiful things. From the destruction of forest vegetation, to the dirty air and poor water quality, from the rapid increase of economy, to the frequent wars and the degeneration of human nature, the cost of human progress is so heavy. But in another forgotten corner of the world, there are still people who live in peace and contentment and abide by their own Spiritual home They advocate nature and are optimistic about life. Although there is a big contrast with modern civilization, they still go their own way and live and develop in an orderly manner according to their national spiritual personality while pursuing modern civilization. That purity, that simplicity, and that quiet, really let people envy and admire.
