Travelling along the Pamir highway at altitude in Tajikistan. The Panj River here forms the border with Afghanistan…here is a cross river view into the Wakhan Corridor …the bridge and fence are in Afghanistan. You can see them if you look at it large…a very long bridge.
There is quite a large Tajik military presence along this very very long border to prevent fanatical Taliban insurgency across this river. At times it is only 3 meters across in the higher regions.

Happy Friday. May your weekend be peaceful, happy and positive.
Thanks for a visit…Dx

Impresionante paisaje . Justo ahora estoy leyendo el libro de Dervla Murray sobre su viaje en bicicleta de Irlanda a la India y ahora estoy en Afganistán, Jalalabad, Herat, Grazni....
Ella va relatando las peculiares bellezas del país, todo esto en 1963.

Dervla Murphy explored many very remote places, on her bicycle! Amazing woman. It is very difficult terrain up here even now!

Relata momentos o creíbles con "Roz" a cuestas por terribles pistas de piedra. Demuestra que era todo un carácter. Estoy disfrutando mucho leyéndola, miro en internet los lugares por donde pasa y me hago una idea del increíble viaje que hizo. Tienes suerte de ver en directo esos paisajes únicos.

I am determined to do it even though I have arthritis, a hip replacement, and am aging as we all are! I need to push myself as much as I can to keep going to these amazing places. …I will be 75 soon, and I realise that my adventuring days are limited. I try to summon Dervla Mutrphy’s strong spirit to push me on, Marije. ❤️

The word majestic doesn't do justice to the view of the mountains in this shot, but I can't think of a better one. The sunshine is lovely and has brought out all the beautiful textures in the mountainsides.

A wonderful capture Diana ⭐️ Enjoy the rest of your day and have a splendid weekend.

A magnificent landscape and shot Diana. I love all the textures in the mountains and of course the snowy peaks. The little bridge looks so tiny surrounded by these mountains.

HFF and have a brilliant weekend. Best wishes Carol
