Postcards from Tajikistan
Something you might not realise about the Pamir Highway environment is that it is still highly active with tectonic activity.
The Pamir mountains were formed by the collision of the Indian and Eurasian plates and that continuing collision creates geothermal heat deep within the earth.
Combined with groundwater circulation, the area is dotted with hot springs - perfect for soothing bones and brains after a long day of travel through the harsh and unforgiving landscape.
