  <li>The Tajik somoni is one of the few currencies in the world to feature a living person on its banknotes – Ismoil Somoni himself.</li>
  <li>Historically, Tajikistan also used the Soviet ruble and the Russian ruble as legal tender.</li>
  <li>Currency exchange can be done easily at banks, exchange offices, or in some cases at bazaars, but be aware of inflated exchange rates and counterfeit money.</li>

</ul>


In Tajikistan, people primarily use cash for their daily transactions, although the use of credit cards is becoming more common in urban areas. It's important to note that smaller businesses and rural areas may not accept credit cards, so it's always a good idea to carry some cash with you. Additionally, it's customary to negotiate prices in certain situations, such as at bazaars or when buying souvenirs. Bargaining is a common practice, and it's expected that you negotiate the price before making a purchase. This cultural aspect adds an exciting element to the shopping experience in Tajikistan.
==Conclusion==


Tajikistan has experienced various changes in its currency over the years. Before its independence from the Soviet Union in 1991, Tajikistan used the Soviet ruble (рубл). After independence, the Tajikistani somoni was introduced as the official currency. The somoni is named after Ismail Samani, an influential figure in Tajik history. The currency features Samani's portrait on the front and various national symbols on the back. Understanding the historical context and significance of the currency adds depth to your knowledge of Tajik culture.
