Rank : 8.0 (average on 1 votes)

Coordinates : 40.388578, 58.702615 (Open in Google Maps)

Subjects : Damla is a tiny village in the Karakum desert, surrounded by towering sand dunes and an extremely arid landscape. It 'a great place for the story; the people are friendly and generally let themselves be photographed. Because of the great isolation, the village has maintained a life-style 'traditional'; is a place out of time!

Recommended equipment : Zoom standards and goals from portrait; the tripod can come in handy for some shots of the landscape.

Best months : All year round, although the seasons are spring and autumn; the winters are cold and summers very hot.

How to get there : Damla is reached only by off-road vehicle, with a local guide. It is several hours of off-road Darvaza, another must-see.

Visits : The village is freely accessible; sunrise and sunset are the best times for both the light and for the cooler temperatures.

Notes : The co-ordinates are approximate; despite having done a lot of research, it was not possible to find the exact coordinates of this village (I think also the location shown on google map is not entirely correct.)
