Embark on a journey to the roof of the world

Situated in Badakhshan in the heart of Asia, “The Pamirs“ is an area of sky-scraping and snow-capped majestic mountains, lakes with clear blue water, wide valleys and bone-dry deserts. For hundreds of years, people have called these high mountains “Poy-e-Mehr“, the literal translation being “the Foot of the Sun“ or “Roof of the World”.
