== Hitching out ==
=== East towards [[Merv]], [[Turkmenabat]] ===
Follow the main road going right from the museum and ask for directions to Merv. Say you want to walk. The highway is about a 45 min walk. You can also take a shared taxi for not to much.
== Sleeping ==
Just next to the museum there is a nice three storyed fountain that can be climped and slept in. Be aware, this is illegal as there is night curfew for tourists after 11
== Merv ==
historically city on the silk road. Very very old, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Merv Most of it was destroyed by djingis kahn (the mongol)
Can be hitched very easily, but there is not much to see with out a guide or a good guidbook. Ask for a guid at the hotels, or wait for some tourists on a tour, and offer them 20 dollars to join them
