The narrative chronicles the journey of Prince Scipio Borghese as he embarks on an expedition through Central Asia, particularly focusing on his travels from Tashkent to the heavenly mountains of the Tian Shan range. This work provides a glimpse into the cultural and geographical landscape of the region, exploring both the challenges and wonders faced by the travelers. The beginning of the book introduces the journey as the main characters, including Prince Borghese and his guide Zurbriggen, arrive in Tashkent after an arduous journey. They prepare for an ambitious trek towards Prjevalsk, aiming to cover nearly 900 km. The narrative vividly depicts the bustling life of Tashkent, its diverse population, and the historical significance of the region, while also hinting at the difficulties they will encounter on their mountainous adventure. As they set out on their tarantass, the initial trials of travel become apparent, foreshadowing the arduous journey that lies ahead as they navigate through seemingly endless plains, deserts, and the early challenges of setting up their expedition.
