Haft kul - seven beautiful lakes

So I've been visiting the famous "seven lakes" in the north of the capital. It's already kinda on our way to Uzbekistan. Let's cut right to the chase: Here they come. Seven incredible beautiful lakes 🤩🤩🤩

These lakes were originally a river of some sort (a river is still going through them) and were formed by a landslide.

On our way out of Dushanbe we stopped at some restaurant and they had fish. This was legit the best I've had in over a week! Im happy to be out of Pamir food-wise.

We had dinner with the Russians and Aziz, as a good-bye. There was some good food in the capital! Aziz knows nice places.

Mara and I were craving some fruits and vitamins and had this great porridge 

Oh and later that day I've had some hotdog "Tajik style"

Yes that's fried potatoes in this hotdog. And cucumber and tomato. I think any sausage in a bread qualifies as hotdog here but it was surprisingly delicious! Soo happy to have some different food again!

Anyway, enough talking about food. There are these super comfortable tables where you sit on and put another mini table on top, or just a blanket. They are called "Tapchan" and this is how they are transported 😂 Saw them twice on a car in one day.

We hitchhiked into the mountains to the seven lakes. There are children trying to sell bracelets for 10 somoni (0,80€). I couldn't say no to these cute girls 🙈

There are only VERY few places with reception but this is one of them and I would love to stay here longer. This place is really calm and quiet (except of the monstrous river feeding all lakes) but I need to leave the country tomorrow because I only have 14 days allowance. I didn't figure out yet what to do for my last days in Kyrgyzstan but I doubt I'll be bored 😂
