Diyarbakir Castle, the second largest in the world after the Great Wall of China! It is said to be the largest inhabited castle. It is a place with a long history as it has been a place where you can stay and eat since the Silk Road era! I recommend it as a Turkish formal meal restaurant💕

Name: Malabadi Bridge Address: Çatakköprü, 21640 Silvan/Diyarbakır, Turkey Atmosphere/Facilities: It is parallel to the new bridge currently in use. There is a simple kiosk on the side of the bridge. Recommended point: A place where you can feel the flow of history Average price: No admission fee Evaluation: An elegant bridge spanning the Batman River, a tributary of the Tigris River that everyone learns about in history textbooks. Built in the 12th century, it is about 280 meters long and 7 meters wide. There are small rooms on both sides that you can descend by stairs, which is interesting. I tried crossing it while feeling the history and the level of technology at the time. #overseastravel #greatview

Name: Zerzevan Castle Address: Demirölçek, 21050, Çinar/Diyarbakır Atmosphere/Facilities: After you leave the parking lot, you will find the castle buildings scattered up the slope. There are no shops or souvenir stores, so you must bring drinking water. You should also wear comfortable shoes. Recommended points: The ruins from the Eastern Roman period are relatively well preserved. Average price: As of May 2023, there is no admission fee. Evaluation: Located in Diyarbakir Province in the eastern inland part of Turkey. There are many Roman ruins scattered throughout Turkey, but I was surprised to find that they were so far inland to the east. #overseastravel #breathtakingview

Beautiful day in Diyarbakir

Diyarbakır, a regional central city located in southeastern Turkey, was just a vague impression in my mind before I set off. However, this journey completely changed my perspective. With its unique culture, warm residents, and stunning cityscape, it left me with a profound and unforgettable experience. The moment I arrived in Diyarbakır, I was captivated by its unique cityscape. The towering city walls encircle the old town, guarding this ancient land like a giant dragon. Inside and outside the walls, ancient buildings and modern facilities complement each other, showcasing the city's unique charm of blending history and modernity. I stayed in a traditional inn located in the old town. Although the room was simple, it was clean and comfortable, full of local characteristics. The innkeeper was hospitable and provided me with many travel tips, making me feel the simplicity and kindness of the local people. On the first day, I decided to explore the old town. Walking on the ancient cobblestone streets, I felt the breath of history. The buildings on both sides had different styles, some were ancient and elegant, while others were modern and fashionable, presenting a unique cityscape. I wandered through the bustling streets, enjoying the scenery along the way and feeling the city's vitality. In the old town, I found a restaurant recommended by locals and tasted Diyarbakır's famous specialty dish, 'Cızlama.' It is a kind of meat pie baked in an oven, crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, with a delicious taste that lingers. The restaurant's atmosphere was lively, full of laughter, making me feel the hospitality of the local people. In the afternoon, I went to the famous city walls of Diyarbakır. Walking along the walls, I admired the panoramic view of the city. The walls were towering and majestic, guarding the city like a giant dragon. From the walls, I could see the whole city and the rolling mountains in the distance. The scenery was spectacular and breathtaking. By the walls, I met a group of locals having a picnic. They warmly invited me to join them, sharing their food and drinks. Although we didn't speak the same language, we communicated through body language and smiles, feeling the warmth between people. On the second day, I decided to visit the natural scenic areas around Diyarbakır. I rented a car and drove along the winding mountain roads, enjoying the scenery along the way. The mountains were undulating, the scenery was beautiful, and the air was fresh, making me feel relaxed and happy. In the countryside, I visited a local village and experienced the local lifestyle. The villagers were hospitable, showing me their daily lives and sharing their stories with me. I felt the simplicity and kindness of the local people and the harmony between humans and nature. During my days in Diyarbakır, I also visited several local markets and bought some local handicrafts and specialty products. These products were exquisitely made and unique, making me feel the cultural heritage of Diyarbakır. When I left Diyarbakır, my heart was full of emotion. This regional central city in southeastern Turkey brought me countless surprises and unforgettable memories. The cuisine, scenery, and hospitality of the local people in Diyarbakır will become memories I will cherish forever. Diyarbakır, a place far beyond my expectations, a place worth visiting again. This journey was not only a sightseeing trip but also a spiritual baptism, allowing me to feel the unique charm of southeastern Turkey and the harmony between humans and nature. The enthusiasm and vitality of Diyarbakır will always remain in my heart.

Diyarbakir is a very interesting place with its history, culture and nature. It is a place that hosts civilizations and very different nations and cultures together. I definitely recommend Diyarbakir liver. After eating liver in Diyarbakir, you will not want to eat liver anywhere else. It is a place worth visiting with its historical Diyarbakir Castle, Suriçi, 10-Eyed Bridge, Zerzevan Castle and many other historical structures.

Dağkapı and Hevsel Gardens in Diyarbakır Dağkapı is one of the most iconic areas in Diyarbakır, a historic city in southeastern Turkey. It is named after the grand gate of the ancient city walls, which are some of the best-preserved fortifications in the world. The city walls, built by the Romans and expanded during later periods, are made of black basalt stone and have been recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Dağkapı serves as a vibrant cultural hub, bustling with local markets, traditional shops, and restaurants offering authentic Kurdish and Turkish cuisine. Hevsel Gardens, located near the Tigris River, are another UNESCO World Heritage Site and represent a natural treasure of Diyarbakır. These gardens have been cultivated for thousands of years and play a vital role in the region's agriculture. The lush greenery of Hevsel offers a stark contrast to the arid surroundings, showcasing a rich ecosystem that supports diverse plant and animal life. Visitors can explore the harmony between history and nature by walking along the city walls, overlooking the vast Hevsel Gardens, and experiencing the timeless beauty of Diyarbakır.

#springblossom A wonderful park near some of the most famous attentions in town. Even a month after the fest of the tulip festival it was still full of colour. Many places to relax, strangely not too overcrowded. Has some stone dresses for posing, fountains and huge trees. Seems rather newly made. Such a beautiful park! Thousands of tulips and other flowers everywhere. Birds nests are on top of the trees. A lot of walkways and opportunity to run around for kids. Highly recommend this beautiful relaxing park in a very busy Istanbul!

#EuropeanTravel #Turkiye #Outlet #Churros #Cappuccino Turkiye Diyarbakir Luxury Outlet Mall.. I went to the outlet mall that said it would take me to a good place... ㅋㅋㅋ There are many pretty cafes in the outlet mall that was built in the new city... HAPPY MOON'S has not only Turkish Kabe (coffee), but also espresso and mocktail. And even delicious brunch.. The menu is diverse and the drinks are diverse.. Cappuccino and churros go very well together... The cinnamon scent of the churros.. Cappuccino with that cinnamon scent... I admit it is a luxury cafe... Now that I had delicious coffee and churros, let's go shopping... If you visit Diyarbakir, be sure to stop by the outlet.

#Overseas travel #Turkiye travel #Eastern Turkey #Starbucks #Diyarbakir #Starbucks Starbucks is a must-have for overseas travel.. Depending on whether there is a Starbucks or not, you can judge whether it is a good city or a rural area. I found Starbucks in a shopping mall.. Aww~~~~ I will go in quickly and enjoy Turkey while drinking something cool!! Drinking coffee and hibiscus drinks.. Resting my sore legs... Quenching my dry throat... People watching.. I am also watched.. ㅋㅋㅋ We explored each other... Drinking a cool drink and going shopping again... It is a place that gives you a rest like that... I took a picture because the interior was impressive..

#Overseas travel #Turkiye travel #Eastern Turkey #Diyarbakir #Lamb rib restaurant #loqumet #Hot place Eastern Turkey.. There is a lamb rib restaurant in Diyarbakir New City. When it comes to lamb ribs, there are many cases where you can't eat it because the meat smells so bad... However, here, the meat is soft and odorless and the best.. The salad served as an appetizer is sprinkled with pomegranate juice and olive oil... The taste of the Diyarbakir specialty lettuce wrap made of grains ?? (hand-pressed shape) is also amazing.. Both chicken and beef are delicious.. The place that made me love lamb ribs... Please try lamb ribs in Turkey... And the restaurant atmosphere is really amazing.

#Overseas travel #Turkiye travel #Diyarbakur #Silk Road #Silk Road restaurants #Unique restaurants If you follow the Silk Road, you will find Diyarbakur.. If you enter a stone wall building that is over 3,000 years old, there is a restaurant where you can enjoy the breakfast that Silk Road merchants enjoyed.. A restaurant that maintains the old atmosphere while maintaining the old style... There was too much food, so I couldn't eat it all... A restaurant where each dish is full of sincerity.. There are various types of cheese, including kayak (cheese and honey mixed and eaten) that Baek Jong-won praised so much.. Bread is unlimited refill.. It is a restaurant where you can enjoy it without feeling burdened because the price is reasonable. This is a breakfast you can enjoy in Diyarbakir Castle, so I highly recommend you all to enjoy it... And after drinking Turkish coffee, you can see a coffee shop that is only found in Turkiye... A coffee shop with a view of the road and the forest... Just take a look for fun..

#Overseas travel #Diyarbakr city wall #Turkiye travel #Silk Road How to get there: Rent a car from Diyarbakr Airport Attractions: Armenian Orthodox Church, Tigris River Recommended food & restaurants: Silk Road style restaurants and Kaymak located inside Diyarbakr city wall Shopping information: 'Jevizli Sujuk' made with hardened grape juice wrapped in walnuts Diyarbakr is a place with many scars due to the traces of numerous wars! Thanks to this, after the war, the city wall was repaired according to the methods of the occupying powers, and there are various methods of reduction and repair. People still live in this ancient city that has been around for thousands of years, and they still welcome guests in the same way they used to travel along the Silk Road. It is a place that welcomes people who have come a long way with a smile, just like the merchants who enjoy their wealth💕

:: Suleymaniye Mosque (𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐌𝐨𝐬𝐪𝐮𝐞 𝐨𝐟 𝐒𝐮𝐥𝐞𝐢𝐦𝐚𝐧) :: #Pang takes you to see this and that #travel #Turkey #Turkey #Travel abroad #Turkish mosque #Mosque #mosque Today we chose to go to a mosque not far from our accommodation. It is also close to 2 major shopping areas: Grand Bazaar and Spice Bazaar. Since it is our last day in Istanbul... prepare to waste all your TL money!!! 🛒🛍🤑 The mosque we visited is called "Suleymaniye" ☪️🙏🏻 It is beautiful but looks quieter than the Sultan Ahmed Mosque or the Blue Mosque that we went to on the first day... Looking down from the mosque balcony, we will see a beautiful view of the Bosphorus and the Golden Horn as far as the eye can see. Especially if you come at 6 pm to watch the sunset 🌅🕊🤲, watch the seagulls and listen to the prayers, it must feel quite magical… This mosque is outstanding in that it has a dome as high as “47 meters”, built as a tribute to Sultan Suleiman 🕋📚👩🏻‍⚕️🩺 Inside, there are religious schools, hospitals, libraries, caravan shelters and the tombs of Sultan Suleiman and his wife. Open for visits ⚠️*Free every day*⚠️ from 9:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. . . . Who’s Up for? :: Travel with “Pao” #Paeng takes you to see this and that
