ОглавлениеI have no idea, about what to write today, but maybe it would be great, if probably one wants to find out about the weather in these places, places in Tajikistan; it was so wonderful to see and know that in the capital of this country the air temperature in these days is about +22° C, of course. And, maybe after some days it will become warmer and warmer, and the air will be the same, as in a hot summer. Of course, it’s very hard to live and feel like oneself in these summers, but it is really very difficult to understand or to see how exactly some people live at such extremely high temperatures during summer seasons and in the poorest areas without any normal, I mean, any air conditioners and maybe other things, too. So, but of course, summer season in this country is also so great and wonderful. It is quite unbelievable to see few clouds and rain at that time in this area, but of course, so warm and continental is the climate in this country which have no sea borders and is located far from sea, and maybe it is also problematic regarding a country in such a location, as Tajikistan which, of course, has no sea borders or exit to the sea but also has quite a large territory – because, this means, that its economy is not so strong as it may be in countries and republics which exactly have sea borders. And also, you know, when writing about economy of this Central Asia Republic it may be also very good to write that the biggest and probably the most important part of economy sector is the textile industry which plays a very important role in economy of the Tajikistan Republic; so, this means that textile production certainly guarantees the most part of income for economy of this republic and income for a large portion of Tajikistan citizens, also thanks to big export of clothes and caps which, of course, had been produced and exported by this country for ages… But the most interesting topic will be to write about some traditional clothes or, how the Tajik nation calls it, the traditional cap, – and, its name, of course, is Tajik Tubeteika or the Traditional Tajik Cap. This cap, of course, is being worn now by the most and major part of Tajikistan inhabitants; according to tradition there can be only a few colours, such as green, as a symbolic colour of the religion of Islam, and also some ornamental patterns on this cap. And, just a few days ago, I read about that traditional thing or, to tell the truth, about that from what material these caps are made, and how in other Asian Islamic countries there is also camel, or sheep, or goat wool material which is often used to produce Tubeteikas. Maybe, some other Central Asia Republics and countries, too, have such national and traditional caps, but their appearance would have some differences; and, if, for example, you also love very much any other country in this region, and, to my mind, it is so great to love that country with all your heart, which is known as Turkmenistan, and its life and culture, its people and nation where probably so many people wear and have the traditional caps— the Turkmen Papacha Cap, as Turkmen nation calls them. It is my favourite, because I remembered that time when it was so interesting to me to watch that traditional attribute of traditional costume. Well, you know, exactly to tell the truth, this Papacha caps use to be in two colours: white and black, for me, of course, now and always the most loved was the white Turkmen Papacha Cap which also is made from sheep or goat material, the greater part of them are made, of course, from sheep material. You know, how possibly uncomfortable is to put such cap on your head or wear it during the summer season, because I don’t know any other country or republic in this region where the temperature can be so high and the sun shines so hot… Maybe in some desert areas of Turkmenistan which are located near the Iranian or Afghanistan border the temperature can be extremely high…
***********
National clothes or costumes of some countries and republics in Central Asia are, of course, really amazing. And there are, maybe, a few most popular colours: as often, black, white and, maybe, also red. You know, these textile shirts which are often produced in Tajikistan or Turkmenistan have white or red colours. It is so wonderful to have that shirt and to feel it on your body in such a warm summer season. But these are not, of course, the most important traditional clothes of those nations. Maybe, it would be very interesting to find out that Papacha which is often being worn in Turkmenistan Republic, and Tubeteika in Tajikistan, are looking so amazing, and I think that it is so wonderful to have such hat of your head. It was so interesting for me to analyse how exactly the Turkmen Papacha represents the spirit of Turkmenistan country or its culture, and this can be also the material used for Papacha production- sheep and goat wool…
If you love that country with all your heart, you feel this every day in your life, maybe you love this traditional cap, and it will be so important and necessary for you to have it, and that how you love Turkmenistan Country, their life, history and traditions, is sacred for each Turkmen person.
