Gonbad bid farewell to me with a strange statue of a Dalmatian dog:

I left the main road after a few kilometers of noise and bad air, which was when I took a narrow dusty path that went through the fields:

Sometimes I saw buildings next to it, but that did not happen very often:

There were mostly just wheat fields:

And rice fields:

I walked until it was dark:
