Workation in Balkanabat: the essentials

Oil built Balkanabat, the former Nebit-Dag and now the administrative centre of Balkan Province, the largest in Turkmenistan. The town lies at the foot of the Balkan Daglary range, about 450 km west of Ashgabat and 160 km east of the Caspian port of Türkmenbaşy, and is laid out as a grid of apartment blocks known as kvartal. Balkanabat International Airport is about 20 km away. Turkmenistan's entry rules make any longer stay hard to arrange, and outside the oil sector little draws foreigners here.
