💨 Abstract

Turkmenistan has long been one of the world's most isolated countries, though this may soon change. The government announced simplifications to its visa process, aiming to make it faster and easier for tourists to enter the country. This shift is particularly notable for a destination often off-limits and known for its stringent controls. The primary attraction remains the Darvaza gas crater, though its flames are diminishing.
