  8. Takia Gate in Turkistan, Kazakhstan 🇰🇿

    Not a set. Not a theme park.

    An old Silk Road gate whose name likely points to a takia — a Sufi lodge where dervishes, Muslim mystics on a path of devotion and remembrance, gathered.

    Behind it: old Turkistan, pilgrims, khans, dust, and Timur’s blue-domed tribute to Khoja Ahmed Yasawi.

  16. Shehzadi at Takia Gate, Turkistan.

    Months earlier we stood in Chandolin, Switzerland, home of Ella Maillart, who crossed Soviet Turkestan in 1932 with a camera, notebooks, and heroic stubbornness.

    Then we drove east. Now the road had folded the map: Swiss mountain village to Silk Road Kazakhstan.
