River running through Matravn

view map

A tributary to the Yazgulom river runs through the centre of Matravn, which is Yazgulom's largest village. About 6,000 people live in Yazgulom, in five different villages. Their language, Yazgulomi, is spoken nowhere else. Yazgulom's residents are Pamiri. The vast majority of Pamiris are Ismaili, but by contrast Yazgulomis practice the Sunni branch of Islam. Photo taken on July 08, 2016 in Matravn, Yazgulom, Gorno-Badakhshan Autonomous Province, Tajikistan.
