Places worth visiting
A selection to start dreaming and organizing the stay — not an exhaustive list of everything there is to see.
Citadelle
Khodjant citadel
The citadel presents restored structures and collections related to Khujand's history. Do not confuse visible restitutions with an entirely old enclosure.
Market
Bazar Panjchanbé
Panjchanbé brings together shops and food products near the religious sector. Respect the sellers and check the ingredients before tasting.
Mausoleum
Mausoleum Sheikh Muslihiddin
The ensemble of Sheikh Muslihiddin belongs to the religious heritage of Khojent. Visits follow the uses of worship and open spaces.
River bank
Syr Darya Riverbanks in Khujand
The banks of the Syr Darya provide views of Khujand’s urban landscape. A riverside walk does not imply that swimming or boating is allowed.
