Notice: Function _load_textdomain_just_in_time was called incorrectly. Translation loading for the dynamic-content-for-elementor domain was triggered too early. This is usually an indicator for some code in the plugin or theme running too early. Translations should be loaded at the init action or later. Please see Debugging in WordPress for more information.

Getting there<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Take the train to Baysun, a station on the railway line between Tashent and Termez. You will then need a private car or taxi to reach Derbent. It\u2019s a slow but scenic drive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What to expect<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

The Iron Gates cleave open the mountains and you drive right through the gorge. The scenery is impressive but there are also plenty of things to stop and see on the way, including a working water mill, the foundations of a mediaeval caravanserai, and a small Sufi shrine.<\/p>\n\n\n
