Turkistan is a city and the administrative center of Turkistan Region of Kazakhstan, near the Syr Darya river. It is situated 160 km (100 mi) north-west of Shymkent on the Trans-Aral Railway between Kyzylorda to the north and Tashkent to the south. Its population has increased in ten years from 102,505 to 142,899. Turkistan's most prominent historical and cultural asset is the Mausoleum of Khoja Ahmed Yasawi, a UNESCO World Heritage site. The city is served by Hazrat Sultan International Airport.
Reading Turkestan against the global hubs: Dubai (~2,332 km), London (~5,035 km), Singapore (~5,843 km) are the close ones, with São Paulo (~13,755 km) sitting on the opposite side of the planet — a good gut check when judging logistics windows.
