Ashgabat a ghost city

Hello my name is Lotte and today I am informing you about a ghost city called Ashgabat. 

So what is a ghost city? And No, ghost cities are not cities that are haunted, they are just abandoned and ‘’peopleless” but the thing that drew me in about Ashgabat was that it's pretty modern, only built in 1881 just after my school was built just nine years earlier. 

Did you know that Ashgabat has a population of just 864, 695 I know that might seem like a lot with me saying it's abandoned, but actually Fiji, compared to Ashgabat in landmass, a tiny beautiful pacific island has more people in than a huge empty city. 

Ashgabat has beautiful artutere with tall, grand and handsome buildings lining these streets so why is it so deserted? The true reason why Ashgabat is abandoned is thought to be a combination of  dentistry 543 made of pure marble put that with the sun and it can blind you, also Ashgabat is located in Turkmenistan which is one of the rarest visited countries in the entire world.   

As I mentioned just before Ashgabat has the highest amount of colour density in the world, smashing records for it that still haven’t been beaten to this day. Apart from feeling trapped by the high density rates, Ashgabat which have I mentioned is the capital of Turkmenistan is home to sweltering heat. Did you know that some days in the city you can actually fry an egg on the sidewalk. Another reason why Ashgabat is so empty is because of the government, just to step foot in Turkmenistan  they require you to have a specific type of visa and the process getting it is not exactly easy and can go wrong in manys and when you get there your not even allowed to bring about a black vercel into the country because in 2018 the president, Gurbanguly Berdymukhammedov din’t like them and felt the brought bad luck. Talk about a president's power!

I hope you learned something new from me today. Thank you for reading!

Kia kaha stay safe everyone!
