Pamir is a vast mountainous region in the middle of Asia located at the intersection of world’s greatest mountain ranges such as Tyan-Shan, Hindukush, Kunlin and Karokorum. Translated from Farsi, the word “Pamir” stands for the “Rooftop of the World”. Pamir is the birthplace of the highest peaks in the CIS area including the Peak of Ismaili Samani (formerly known as the Peak of Communism, 7495m) and the Peak of Eugeniya Korzhenevskaya (7105).
