-
A huge stella octangula of Oguz Khan covered with stain glass windows is said to be the main decoration of a new TV tower in Ashgabat. The color spectrum of windows will change according to the day hour. It is expected that stella lights will be seen from any place of Ashgabat in the day time. The TV tower will be erected on top of the Kopetdag hill in the place called Gindivar in the southeast of Ashgabat where the Health Path is running. The TV tower picture was printed in Turkmen newspapers last week, the Turkmenistan.ru correspondent reports from Ashgabat. It is reported that electric eyes will be installed in between the tower windows to transform solar energy into electric power that will be accumulated for indoor and outdoor illumination of the facility. The TV tower design provides for viewing areas as well as revolving restaurants. It should be recalled that the ministry of communication of Turkmenistan signed a contract this month with Turkish Polimeks company for the construction of a 211 m high TV tower. The Euro 136,9 million facility should be commissioned in October 2011.
