Nomad Camp759 viewsOn the road from Denizli to Antalya, we stopped at what we were told was a nomad's camp. Genuine nomads are pastoral rather than agricultural, and so it is hard to understand why a real nomad would need a tractor; and given that the lady who maintained this establishment was more concerned with selling items such as shawls and amulets than herding sheep and goats, it seemed more to fit the definition of "tourist trap." Nevertheless, it was a welcome stop in a long ride, and nobody complained.

Really Skinny Yali758 viewsThe price of real estate here means that you have to make the most of every square inch. It's the same principle that led to building skyscrapers in New York.

Anadolu Hisarı758 viewsFortress built in 1393-94 on the Asian side of the Bosphorus, in preparation for the first, unsuccessful, siege of Constantinople by Sultan Bayezid I. Over a half-century later, Mehmed II the Conqueror used it, in tandem with the newly-built Rumeli Hisarı on the European side, to close the Bosphorus for his successful siege of 1453.
