Not really amazing, it was Russian imperialists trying to force homogeny throughout it's empire. It was fine at the end of a gun as most communists empires are, but once the boot is taken off your neck you realize you still have issues with your neighbors

Thank You, Ben, for showing us these beautiful places and people. Without you I probably wouldn't have ever been able to see. Amazing video. 🙏💛

This channel is one of my most favourite windows to the worlds I will most likely never visit myself. Thank you Benjamin!

This was a great video, one of the most fascinating travel thingies I’ve seen on KZread

It's great to see Bald back on his own doing what he does best. Keep it going Ben ... !

Yeah I got excited but then half way through the vid those two show up 🙄

I keep checking the date this was posted as it feels like classic Ben from a year or so ago… every minute of this was ‘in-ter-esting’ - loved this - felt like old times - more of these please ❤

Just Amazing like Always! Thank you

Excellent video, Mr. Benjamin!

Watching from the other side of the Wakhan Corridor. Lahore Pakistan. I must say Tajikistan and especially the Tajiks have surprised me. Ben, this was a great watch!

I know Lahore Pakistan. It is one of the top dirtiest cities in the world

@@user-ik8xd9pt9c yes it's been in the news for bad reasons but it ain't as bad when you visit in person. The newer parts of the city are spotless.

@@markmark2080 hey mark!. I also spend hours on google earth seeing cities from above. Model town is a nicely designed area. Glad you found it appealing.

Mr Bald. Back to your best. Great content where you feel most at home. Great video. Thanks for returning to these former Soviet places. 👌🏻👍🏻

Had Soo much fun finding that mosaic in part one. I don't know what it is about you, but it was very entertaining

great to see you back ❤

This feels like a throw back to the content that made me fall in love with the channel. Brilliant stuff. Thanks for taking us along on your journeys, Ben!
