Turkmenistan Travel guide
Turkmenistan is a country in Central Asia bordered on the East by the Caspian Sea and is largely covered by the Karakum Desert. The country is known for its warm hospitality. It is also home to ancient sites which were a part of the Silk Route and no trip to Turkmenistan is complete without visiting the same. The country is a charming combination of old and new and has several monuments and sites that attest to the same. Do be prepared for a country that does not have all the modern amenities that you might be used to. The country's strengths lie in its beautiful and stark landscape and hospitable people Read more
- The best time to visit Turkmenistan is between March and April or October to November as the summers and winters can be quite harsh. The best way to reach Turkmenistan is to fly to the capital, Ashgabat. Turkmen Airlines and several international carriers operate flights to and from Ashgabat.
- You could also cross land borders from Uzbekistan, Iran, Kazakhstan, and Afghanistan into Turkmenistan. You can also cross the Caspian Sea from Azerbaijan and reach Turkmenistan. You will have to be aware of the several restrictions you will have to abide by during your stay in Turkmenistan. You can smoke only in the designated areas, and smoking in public places will result in a fine. In fact, it is quite difficult to find tobacco products in the country. Internet access in Turkmenistan is restricted, with many messaging services and social networks not accessible in the country.
- There is much to see and do in Turkmenistan. Konye-Urgench was the centre of the Islamic world centuries ago. Today, it is a rural town with chaotic, unpaved roads. It was named a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

- The 38m-high Mausoleum of Sultan Sanjar is a testimony to Seljuq power at Merv. The building rises dramatically in the open plains. The Köw Ata Underground Lake is an unusual experience. You will enter a sulphurous underground world down 65 ft. At the bottom is a lake of clear water which is naturally heated.
- The capital of Turkmenistan is Ashgabat and is a strange and quirky place that is built for beautiful photography. Grand marble palaces juxtapose against Soviet-style architecture.
- The National Museum is a collection of three museums – the History Museum, Nature and Ethnographic Museum and the Presidential Museum. It is a great place to learn about the history of Turkmenistan and understand the culture of the country. Check for the holidays before you visit.
