However, you have the option if you like. There are sheep and goat herders who roam the valley, but they are friendly, and some people like to interact with them and share a meal. The Vakhshskaya Valley is also a place you will like, but mostly at dawn or sunset. Just like the previous valley, it does not have much vegetation.
