A short crossing on the border and from the Turkmen capital Ashgabat the train journey continues to Mary, where you can visit the remains of the famous Silk Road city of Merw. In Uzbekistan the high speed trains bring you from Buchara to Samarkand and Tashkent. Last party of the journey goes through the immense country of Kazachstan, ending in Almaty, on the edge of the snow capped Tien Shan mountains.
