Inside one of the world's most secretive countries and its bizarre record

Turkmenistan is shrouded in mystery Imagine living in a country where Whatsapp is banned, the internet and Wi-Fi are virtually non-existent, and you can drive any car you want – as long as it’s white. Sounds like a place that should exist only in someone’s imagination, right? Well, no. Because that’s exactly how life is for the citizens of Turkmenistan, one of the most secretive – and least-visited – countries in the world.

Capital city Ashgabat is also decked in white But the bizarre rules in Turkmenistan don’t end there. For example, don’t expect to be able to freely use the internet if you visit as you can in other parts of the world. Access to the Internet is heavily regulated there and only a small fraction of the population can access it, with most websites banned other than local ones accessible via the Turkmenet, a censored version of the web available only in Turkmen.
