Turkmenistan
The most interesting thing about the Turkmenistan - is that it is impossible to get there.
Amazing fate of one of the former Soviet republics. 99% of the Russian refusal issued. I tried to get there for ten years, during which time received four failure in obtaining a visa. Every denial desire to get into Turkmenistan increased significantly. Finally, a miracle happened.
Bloggers do not travel to Turkmenistan. Because they were not allowed there. Turkmenistan - ten times more closed country than North Korea. Reporting from Turkmenistan virtually none. At the same freedom of movement within the country is relatively large.
The trip to Turkmenistan begins with a visit to the site "Turkmenistan Airlines", the only airlines of the country. On the main page, like all other people. Skrishnot turned out beautifully. The only difference is that if someone decides to buy a ticket online, he will be severely chipped. The search form is the picture, which froze the date "13 August 2013" (check for yourself - turkmenairlines.com ). We give it in full here:
Turkmenistan - a strange hybrid of Stalinism, the Juche idea, communism, soak time and dearest Eastern hospitality.
I love to learn the fate of rulers, whose life ebnula hammer on the head. For example, a Cambodian Pol Pot studied at the Sorbonne, but he was expelled for academic failure. Then he returned to his native Cambodia (self Cambodia), he came to power and avenge all. Urban residents were evacuated to the village on the cultivation of rice. Anyone with symptoms of education (for example, wearing glasses), went to rehabilitation. They stay alive or full farmers, or those who in time for them zakosil. Teachers, doctors, builders - all repressed. The country is four years back in the Stone Age.
A similar fate Turkmenistan. President for Life Saparmurat Niyazov has lost his mother and brother during the terrible earthquake in Ashgabat in 1948. He was sent to an orphanage, and then - to study in Leningrad. There, apparently, he decided to avenge his people, because no one relative took him to the training (which, generally speaking, very characteristic of Islamic culture, where there are no children's homes). He became a member of the Komsomol, Party member and a major functionary returned in the Turkmen Soviet Socialist Republic, became the chairman of the Supreme Council, and after the collapse of the USSR - president for life.
It was then that Saparmurat and pulled on the full, bent the whole nation. It is forbidden to whistle, gold teeth, libraries, opera and ballet, rural clinics, he forced all teach his own book "Rukhnama", built himself a pile of gold monuments and generally raged until death, using the fact that the country has to asses the gas, which provides currency inflow. To no one could criticize this insanity, entry was prudently limited. The Internet today is, but in the whole country are banned: LiveJournal, Facebook, Instagram, Youtube? And a few questionable resources.

...
The monument, called the people "Trehnozhka." At the top is a golden statue of Niyazov that rotates to follow the sun. Kim Jong Il turns in his grave with envy.
Today, people live peacefully enough. Gold teeth nobody pull:
Car predominantly prehistoric. Import of cars with engine capacity of more than 3, 5 liters prohibited. Cars with tinted windows can not be imported at all, but no one bothers tinted windows already in the country. In short, the rules are not always explained by logic.
The new president has weakened the cult of personality. Many stupid bans overturned. But this does not mean that any company has the right not to hang in his portrait of the president on the background of the carpet. Be sure - the carpet, and on it - a portrait. This respect.
If there is a portrait of a carpet, you can hang up and other paintings from the president. Popular - against the backdrop of an electric. Electric - the symbol of a developing economy.
All the newspapers get a photo of President for publication on the front page. Top - two today's newspapers. Therefore, they have the same picture of the president. Bottom - more photos of the president, because it is the newspaper for other dates.
It should be noted that Ashgabat - incredibly beautiful otpidarashen. Here the most beautiful in the world bearing lampposts.
Most telephone booths.
Most traffic lights mast.
Most traffic lights (in most parts of the city zhopny all the traffic lights are in chrome housings!):
I just could not stop photographing this unearthly beauty
On the street, where the presidential palace is lit at night counting! This is no longer anywhere in the world.
Bus Stop - conditioned pavilion.
Ferris:
A whole street allocated under the ministry buildings. A feeling that the street January 1 - no cars, whether people. It turns out, front doors, not in order to go through them to ordinary people. Through the main entrance can enter only one person in the country - the president. All others, including ministers, are to assholes. (In this case, it is clear that the president did not go to the ministries.)
And it is the lives of ordinary people - everyone can afford to put as many plates as it can:
The greatest value - the first floor. Because to the first floor, you can attach any number of areas. Who makes a garden, who are three rooms, one garage. The main thing - not from the front, and from the yard.
Ponazahvatyvayut Statement territory tandyrnitsu build, buzz.
Bookstore afternoon:
The capital of the night:
A table at a restaurant in a deck over the creek (kayfno scary, but very noisy from water):
Hell (40 years ago fell in the desert gas platform ever since and is lit):
Each machine relies Turkmenistan and 720 liters of free gasoline every six months.
