TURKMENISTAN You Were Never Supposed To See 🇹🇲 (intense)

Video Description

Turkmenistan is one of the most secretive countries in the World, and very few people travel there. It is known to be one of the strictest and most tightly controlled countries on Earth. But we found a way to travel to Turkmenistan ourselves, and get off-the-beaten-path. We arranged an almost self-guided tour (which is pretty rare) giving us the chance to travel all the way across this fascinating & intense country, by whatever means we could, and to try and speak with locals living in all corners of Turkmenistan, in order to get to know this former Soviet country better. In this video we travel from Ashgabat, to "The Gates of Hell", then take a train to Mary, where we explore the ancient city of Merv, before finally heading north and attempting to cross the strange land border with Uzbekistan.
