Location Description

"There is only one Ishkashmi village (qishlaq) on the territory of the former Soviet Union, which is Ryn in the Ishkashmi District of the Gorno-Badakhshan Autonomous Region of Tadzhikistan (the biggest village -- Nyut, marked as Ishkashim on the maps). The village is situated on the right bank of the River Pyandzh where it turns sharply from the west to the north. Due to a forced resettlement in the 1950s, some families live in Tadzhik villages (Nyut, Sumdzhin, Mulvodz and others), and in a Wakh village, Namatgut. "
