Provinces of Tajikistan
The country is made up four provinces or "Viloyat": They are Sughd, Khatalon, Gorno-Badakhshan (Autonomous province) and the 4th in the middle was formerly known as Karotegin But since the Tajik Civil War it was changed to "districts under central government” or “Republic subordination" Gorno-Badakhshan is the largest province making up of 45% of the country's landmass yet only about 3% of the population lives there. This province is autonomous and if you want to visit there you must obtain a special permit from Dushanbe.Tajikistan is home to a unique network of roadways that try their best to interconnect each district but of course the heavy mountainous roads have always been somewhat challenging.
