Boiled Alive854 viewsThe silkworm cocoons have to be dissolved in boiling water before the silk threads can be extracted. The silkworms are thus boiled alive inside their cocoons - 6,600 silkworms have to die for every kilogram of silk produced. The PETA folks are not happy about it.

The Zero Gravity Jungle Gym826 viewsI prefer to think of it as an opportunity rather than an obstacle.

Streetcars819 viewsPublic transportation in Istanbul seemed to be modern and adequate (subway, buses, streetcars), although we didn't get a chance to try it because we rode in our ccomfortable chartered tour bus.

JLF at Aspendos811 viewsAnother sighting of the intrepid explorer.

Bedroom806 viewsIn addition to a luxurious bed, the amenities included complimentary slippers, as seen at the foot of the bed.

Don't walk under me791 viewsIf that stone ever fell on anyone, it would hurt.

Tea Time790 viewsAnother tea service, this time in blue velvet.

Denizli Apartment Houses753 viewsAs seen from the bus on the way to the Dogus Hali Carpet Factory.

South Agora and Baths of Hadrian750 viewsThe Baths of Hadrian, built across the west end of the South Agora, were massively constructed from large tufa-like blocks faced with marble veneer and consist of five great barrel-vaulted chambers, with an imposing colonnaded court in front.

Aegean Free Zone Overview742 viewsThe Aegean Free Zone, near Izmir, is one of several free trade zones in Turkey. Free zones are sequestered areas given special regulatory treatment with the aid of promoting exports and attracting foreign investment. The Aegean Free Zone is home to Space Camp Turkey as well as a car museum and a wind turbine blade factory, all of which we visited on this date.

Treasury Gate739 viewsThe Treasury Gate resembles the Sultain's Gate but is smaller and is double-sided (the curved wings form an "X"); it is located on the north side of the palace grounds and closed to public access.

Teapot738 viewsWe partook of tea from this elegant piece, which was not among the merchandise offered for sale.
