    A brief visit but, a must stop and see visit. Beyond the monument is also a park which it's situated in. Walk around a bit!

    Excellent monument park. It’s definitely okay to take photos here but NOT of the guards and the military watcher.

    Nice monument to Turkmen leaders and to the Ruhnama. There aren’t explanatory plaques so be sure to come with a guide or to download information about the leaders before coming to the country.

    The independent monument is impressive but also guarded. You can't take pictures of the military and they will approach you and wanting to delete. It's very clean and not a big visit, for sure check it out.

    阿什哈巴德【土库曼斯坦独立纪念碑】 “独立纪念碑”,该建筑的设计灵感来自传统的土库曼帐篷和土库曼女孩佩戴的传统头饰。该建筑的元素是为了纪念土库曼斯坦的独立日——9 月 27 日。这些元素包括一座 91 米高的钢筋混凝土塔,塔顶有 27 米高的镀金钢结构,以及一个直径为 10 米的观景台。建筑内有展览厅,展出代表土库曼斯坦历史的重要艺术品。独立纪念碑总面积为 84,500 平方米周围绿树成荫,有瀑布水池和 27 尊土库曼领导人英雄雕像,以萨帕尔穆拉特·尼亚佐夫的金色雕像为中心。 这座纪念碑是由土耳其Polimeks公司于 2001 年建造的,以纪念土库曼斯坦独立十周年。(1991年脱离苏联而独立) 按照传统,外国宾客会在独立纪念碑附近的贵宾巷里栽种一棵小树。 地址:V9JJ+FW3, Arçabil şaýoly, Aşgabat

    We can take pictures of the independence monument but not of the guards. So it make it challenging to get close up or interesting shots. It’s a tall, tall building with the founding father on top. Too bad we can’t go into many/any of the buildings to see the interior.

    Unfortunately the monument's interior was (allegedly) under construction during our visit so we couldn't go inside. But the surrounding park and the large Türkmenbashi statue in front of the monument is already worth visiting. As for all other places in Turkmenistan: don't take pictures of the soldiers!

    Our 1st monument we visited was Independence Monument. It’s a beautiful peaceful area. I was impressed and had taken several photos. Very quite in the morning.

    The Turkmen independence monument built by Saparmurat Niyazov (the first president of independent Turkmenistan) in 2000 consists of a yurt-modeled dome crowned with a huge spire. The date of Turkmen independence, 10/27/1991, is reflected in the dimensions of the building: a 27-meter high, thick spire and an observation platform with a diameter of 10 meters on top of a 91-meter tower. Surrounding the building are statues of the great heroes of Turkmenistan, and of course this includes a gilded statue of Niyazov.
