Culture
Tajik culture is one that values hospitality and humility. Respect for elders is extremely important when it comes to communication in Tajikistan. The eldest person is seated in a place of honor at the table. It is unacceptable for a man and a woman to be alone together.
When greeting someone, it is respectful to place the left hand over the heart and give a slight bow.
As it is a mostly conservative Muslim culture, visiting women should be extra careful to dress modestly and conservatively.
