Nomad Camp702 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.
