Amazing trip to Seven Lakes National Park
#2024wish
Seven Lakes national park is one of the most beautiful parks in Turkey and it is located in Bolu province. 🏞️
We arrived here after approximately 1 hour of mountain road from the city center. First, we saw the lakes from above from the observation deck, then we went down and reached the lakes. ⛰️
You can walk here while watching the magnificent view. It is a very nice place for a picnic, there are many tables by the lake. There is also a restaurant and cafe. 🍽️ ☕️
You can come and go for the day or camp with your tent. The entrance fee is quite reasonable.🏕️
In 2024, I want to go Bryce Canyon National Park.

Staying in a cave hotel has recently increased in popularity in the Cappadocia region. Nar cave house is one of the most beautiful hotels among them. It’s located in Nar and very near to the city center.

Winter Drive in Belisırma: Serenity in Seclusion
Under the winter sun, I embarked on a journey around the quiet village of Belisırma, nestled in the heart of Turkey's Cappadocia region. The chilly air hinted at solitude, the village appearing to be in a deep slumber, a stark contrast to the usually bustling summer days.
The Melendiz River, the lifeblood of Belisırma, flowed quietly through the valley. The riverside eateries, usually teeming with life, sat silent and shuttered due to the winter season, their tables, typically just a foot or two above the gently running water, empty.
In the midst of this peaceful solitude, the sound of the adhan, the Islamic call to prayer, echoed from a nearby mosque. Despite the mid-afternoon quiet, this melodious call reverberated through the air, filling the stillness with a sense of tranquillity and spirituality.
The combination of the flowing river, the dormant eateries, and the resonating adhan created an atmosphere of stark yet serene beauty. It was a winter tableau that brought to the fore the underlying character of Belisırma – unpretentious and authentic.
This winter drive around Belisırma was indeed a unique experience. Far from the maddening crowds, it offered a chance to witness and appreciate the quiet charm of rural Turkey. Amidst the chill and quietude, I found warmth in the timeless traditions and tranquil beauty of this lesser-known gem.

get lost in the lost city of Ephesus
this is an incredible ancient treasure located just outside the seaside town of Izmir turkey. well before the collapse of the ottoman empire this city was a port town city inhabited by the ancient Romans. Walk down the original streets thousands of years old as though you were walking in the streets of ancient Rome. You’ll be amazed by all the small theaters and large coliseums ocean pillars will tower above you with Roman design and spectacular Roman architecture. This trip is an entire day trip as leave yourself plenty of time to walk that almost 40 km of pathways, Corredor‘s and ancient paths. if you’re lucky enough to stay for the sunset I highly recommend you do. Transportation is easy as there is a train that arrives in the town straight from Izmir.  everything that you need to see is clearly marked in English if you’re traveling from the United States. Patron the local souvenir shops at the beginning of this magnificent journey. #izmir #turkeytravel #turkey #ephesus #optoutside

never Troy never know
#celebratewithtrip
Troy is one of the most famous cities of Ancient World. City was subject to Legends Iliad and Odyssey of Homer. If you are around Canakkale you must see Troy. Troy is thirty minutes out of Çanakkale near the mouth of the Dardanelles. Most of the parts of city is underground and not excavated. It's a place full of different period of history throughout the centuries and milleniums, all visible in the layers of ruins! The nine levels of Troy are well documented and easy to follow. The Roman amphitheatre is very well preserved. We can see the troy ruins at site and we can also see part of objects at the archeological museum in Istanbul. There are a number of ruins in various parts of excavation and work is still on going. It was mesmerising walking close to the walls of a city. And of course the highlight, there is a replica of the Trojan horse and anyone can climb inside. And yes, we managed to get ourselves inside too.
A must visit place and truly enjoyable !!
Tips
1. Strongly recommend to engage a knowledgable guide for the visit.
2. Some reading on Troy/Troia history, or watch any Trojan War movie before visiting, will make the trip more interesting too.
3. On a hot day, it can be quite warm, so bring water, hat, sunscreen as there are not a lot of shady spots.
