@doug_barnard: Welcome to Ashgabat, Turkmenistan 🇹🇲 I’ve done more than my fair share of travel, and I can honestly say Ashgabat is far and away the strangest place I’ve ever been in my life. Every building made of white marble. All cars also white, by law. Almost no people out in public. But that’s just the beginning — check out the full video for more. #ashgabat #turkmenistan #centralasia #travel

I was in Ashgabat for a few days last year before travelling across the country, It was just like this. We stayed in a hotel on the outskirts. Very different buildings and we could see whole areas of single storey houses much poorer looking. It was very strange touring round the monuments with almost no locals to be seen. We did see occasionally a car that wasn't white I don't know how they were allowed, we were a group travelling in a converted truck and we had to leave it outside the city and get taxis in there. When we left the capital and travelled overland the roads were very poorly maintained, the towns and villages much more poorly maintained. I guess the president never travels outside the city so doesn't care.

That’s because those infrastructure and roads are mainly build for government military uses just a bigger version of Fort Knox

Let's move the city to Egypt and solve the overcrowding problem, but that's impossible. The important question is, is Turkmenistan just North Korea, only slightly better?
