Forget about toilets

The other thing that you especially need to know before you have a trip or you settle abroad in this country Tajikistan is there is no toilet. When visiting Tajikistan, forget about porcelain thrones. They're solely useful for hemorrhoids. Tajikistan's restrooms deteriorate after you leave the capitals and towns. Drop toilets, which are simply holes cut into the ground, are the most frequent type of toilets in the country.

They range from clean to horrible, but there's nothing you can do about it other than use them and/or send Whatsapp images of them to friends and relatives. Carry hand sanitizer and soap; facilities for hand cleaning are not always available. Soap is even worse. This is maybe a piece of bad news for you, this is on top of things bout Tajikistan you should know before traveling.
