An ex Soviet state, Turkmenistan is a one party state. Ashgabat, relatively a very small city, offers very interesting sites to see. Resource rich Turkmens have invested in beautifying their capital with a lot of marble of immense size and shapes. Ashgabat was recently noted by the Guinness Book of World Records as having the highest number of white marble-clad buildings in the world - 543 new buildings lined with white marble covering a total area of 4.5 million square meters. DAY 02 ASHGABAT Our study into the heritage of Central Asia starts as we explore the Parthian Fortresses of Nisa*. The site is of one of the earliest and most important cities of the Parthian Empire, a major power from the mid-3rd century BC to the 3rd century AD. Archaeological excavations in two parts of the site have revealed richly decorated architecture, illustrative of domestic, state and religious functions. Situated at the crossroads of important commercial and strategic axes, this powerful empire formed a barrier to Roman expansion while serving as an important communication and trading centre between east and west, north and south. We then head to theSpiritual Mosque, one of the biggest mosques in Central Asia, visit the National Museum of History and continue to Arch of Neutrality. In the afternoon we drive to GeokDepe to visit Arkadash stud farm (subject to opening) to see Akhalteke horses, the pride of Turkmen nation. Our tour concludes with visits to Presidential Square, ErtogrulGhazy Mosque, drive through some of the marble structures and the newly built Independence Park.

I know it isn’t the best idea to have html in your JSON but sadly I am not in control of this database or this website and am not given those privileges!

The problem here are the closing quotes you use for strings, they're invalid.
End double quotes wrong. Rest everything is fine and working.
The double quotes at the end of the values are the problem. They're the wrong character.
There are a couple issues:
Different quotes used. ” is different from ".
