    Imagine a country where the president is like "REALLLLY" trying to reclaim your traditional roots while simeltaneously rebuilding everything out of marble and rapping with his grandson. That's only a SMALL piece of #Turkmenistan. Enjoy this episode and thanks to MALIKA, and her dad Najmiddin for being in the episode as well as all the other rare Turkmen people we found that helped out!

    I'm Kazakh, recently was in the US and met a Turkmen guy from Tajikistan. We both knew Russian and English but kinda decided to communicate in Uzbek. That's hilarious. He was a nice guy, he told me some of Turkmen traditions and many cool stuff from their traditional medicine. Like eating dried snake meat heals all diseases and drinking rabbit blood also does something supernatural to your body. Central Asia is one big family. Love to everyone.

      It doesn't sound very convincing, maybe he is a Lo'qay or O'zbek, if you are a Qozoq and understood this guy from Tojikston, then he is a Lo'qay, because you, Qozoqs, will not understand the Farg'ona dialect (literary) of the O'zbek language, and the Lo'qay language is a bit like the Qozoq language, but for Qozoqs, the Lo'qay language may sound like O'zbek because of persian borrowings

    I visited Turkmenistan in 2019, Ashgabat was weird but also amazing, all the big marble buildings.. but almost no people on the streets. The Darvaza crater is só hot.. and so big. Especially at night it was an amazing experience. Kunga-Urgench at the north was so beautiful. I would have liked to visit so much more places, to bad it's all so restricted and difficult. But thankfull to have been able to see all these amazing places.

    Thanks, Geography Now, I have learnt so much from your documentary channel. The world is so diverse and interesting and Turkmenistan people are indeed very exotic and beautiful looking.
    Please don't ever lose your culture and heritage, it is important for the country to move forward and embrace modernity but never compromise your roots and history. Peace to all mankind.
    Greetings from Australia.

    What a lovely and beautiful episode. While an obscure country, region of the world Turkmenistan is, I gotta say it would be one of the most fun to visit and experience it on your own. Malika and her dad were awesome hosts. And Hannah's part was a bit off to my opinion but was funny to see both girls working in tandem and brave the section to the end

    Thank you very much guys. I've been there twice already and going again next week. Fascinating country, I love it very much. I think what you didn't mention is the natural beauty of Turkmenistan. The Darai-dere, the cave systems of Kutinanga, the dinasour imprints on the rocks. Very few people get to see these, these are incredible and utterly mindblowing.

    My grand grandmother lived and was a doctor in Turkmenistan during Soviet times. She had to fake her death during an earthquake to flea the country and come back to Russia. Her daughter (my grandma) really liked wearing the tahya hat. She still keeps it. I would really like to go there someday maybe through work, we’ll see.
