Central Asia is the ultimate emerging destination.<\/p>\r\n
I spent 5 months traveling<\/strong> pretty much non-stop around Kazakhstan<\/a><\/strong>, Kyrgyzstan<\/a><\/strong>, Uzbekistan<\/a><\/strong>, and Tajikistan<\/a><\/strong> and it was one of the best experiences of my lifetime.<\/p>\r\n From absolutely jaw-dropping mountain scenery to some of the most mind-blowing mosques and madrassas and just extremely ancient history, I strongly recommend Central Asia to any traveler with a sense of adventure, willing to explore a real off the beaten track destination.<\/p>\r\n Let me give you a very quick overview of what each of these 4 countries can offer:<\/p>","link":"https:\/\/againstthecompass.com\/en\/category\/central-asia\/","name":"Central Asia","slug":"central-asia","taxonomy":"category","parent":0,"meta":[],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/againstthecompass.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories\/208","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/againstthecompass.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/againstthecompass.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/taxonomies\/category"}],"wp:post_type":[{"href":"https:\/\/againstthecompass.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts?categories=208"},{"href":"https:\/\/againstthecompass.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/country?categories=208"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
