- "In January of 2011 the list of sites of Ashgabat was complemented with the square of Revival (Galkynysh) at the intersection of two avenues - Turkmenbashi and Galkynysh, with an impressive monument in its center - a triumphal column crowned with the globe and presidential standard".
- "The luxury "Nusai" hotel stands on the opposite side of the University, across Galkynysh square with circular traffic intersection. This is one of the first post-Soviet structures, far from being the most successful, that has been completely renovated in accordance with the new image of the center. Looking totally different, the hotel faces the palace".
