Rudaki Park is a scenic, meticulously landscaped garden area featuring fountains, statues, manicured lawns, trees from across the globe and a plethora of stunning flowers.
Depending on your visit, it can be a real assault on the senses or a lazy morning reading on one of the many benches.
The centrepiece of Rudaki Park is, of course, a statue of Rudaki. This impressive sculpture has the poet standing under a beautifully decorated mosaicked rainbow.
The figure stands amongst a remarkable fountain of which part doubles as a stage. During national holidays and summer weekends it's excellent to view Tajik singers and the locals dancing along to a few tunes.
