TRAVEL EASTERN TURKEY
|
Remote but impressive part of the Turkey. Churches, mosques and Madrasahs of the cities are monumental because of their high-class stone-workings. All of them has a great architecture and story behind them. Solid seems dry but just like its beauties, you must effort to have it and once you saw them, you won’t forget the beauties of that destination. Springs and summer are the best period to see these gems. |
