Workation in Istaravshan: the essentials

Until 2000 Istaravshan was called Uroteppa. The town in the northern foothills of the Turkestan Range counts among Central Asia's oldest centres of trade and craft, marked its 2,500th birthday in 2002 and is one of three proposed sites for Cyropolis, the city Cyrus founded on the edge of the Persian Empire. The main road between Khujand and Dushanbe passes through, with Khujand 78 km to the north-east and its international airport about 80 km away. Most of the 273,500 people in the administrative area live in the countryside, so the town stays provincial, and foreigners staying for weeks are a rare sight.
