Flying camels
Our Aşgabat city tour today starts with a visit to the Sunday market, better known as the Talkoetsjka bazaar, on the outskirts of the city. Here we see a curious phenomenon — flying camels: Camels that have found a new owner are hoisted onto the owner’s truck with a crane parked here specially for the purpose — under loud protest from the scared camels, of course, but causing no obvious harm.
