| | Turkmenabat is the third
largest city of
Turkmenistan and the centre of Lebap region. It’s situated on the left bank of the
Amu Darya
River. The
past of the city has not yet been researched profoundly, but it’s known that it
was born at the beginning of the one thousand BC, thanks to the
Great Silk Road which
pioneered from
China through
Central Asia to the
Mediterranean in the 3rd century BC. The town Amul was one of the most
important points for the
Silk Road. Those who see the
Amu
Darya
River for
the first time are surprised at its muddy yellow-green colour owing to its
strong stream and a lot of particles of mud containing various nutrient
substances forming the fertile soil. |
