But the latest have a special quality - of challenging Turkmenistan's desert environment.As well as the ice palace, there is to be a vast aquarium. The projects tend now to be sites of recreation for the people, like a Disney-style theme park instead of state palaces.That is in keeping with Mr Niyazov's image as a servant of his people, who lays on every sort of amenity for them.
目前，他正在建造一座清真寺，其规模之大，位居世界前列，他还下令建造了一系列传统宫殿。但是，最近要修建的这座宫殿有些特殊，它向土库曼斯坦的沙漠气候发出了挑战。除了冰雪宫殿外，还要建一座巨大的水族馆。这些项目像迪斯尼的主题公园一样，将成为人们消遣娱乐的场所，而不是国家宫殿。
Ice palaces were popular in the Soviet Union, to which Turkmenistan once belonged, but they were built in the freezing cities of the north, far away.The Turkmen mountains are relatively high, but it is hard to imagine the palace remaining frozen without some sort of technical help.
这正符合尼亚佐夫人民公仆的形象。他一直致力于为人民提供各种生活福利。冰雪宫殿在前苏联非常流行（土库曼斯坦曾属于前苏联），可它们大都建在地冻天寒的遥远的北方城市。土库曼山的海拔相对来说比较高，但是如果没有一定的技术支持，很难想象宫殿能够一直保持冰冻的状态。
