Turkey's Sanliurfa. It is called the hometown of Abraham and Job in the Bible, and is a place where Christian and Muslim pilgrims visit constantly. It is called the city of the prophets and is also known as the city of gastronomy. It has been a major route connecting Mesopotamia and Turkish Anatolia since ancient times, and it was a center of logistics and a place that decorated the brilliant pages of Eastern Christianity. The place in the photo is the birthplace of Abraham. There is a mosque and the surrounding area is a restaurant and tourist attraction, so it is crowded with people day and night, and the night view is also beautiful. It is hot like a African blizzard in the summer, so I recommend coming in the winter. Even in November, it is short-sleeved. #PleaseWinter

Şanlıurfa, a city on the border of southeastern Turkey and Syria. It is said to be the birthplace of the Prophet Abraham, hence it is also known as the City of the Prophet, and is a very unique travel destination in Turkey. My first stop in Şanlıurfa was the Balıklıgöl site (also known as the Pool of Abraham). This is a street garden in the city center, with thousands of carp in the sacred fish pond. It is said that the Prophet Abraham was thrown into a huge fire pit by King Nimrod, but God saved Abraham by cooling the flames, which is said to have happened here. The large pool in the center of the building complex was dug for fire, and the wood in the fire pit turned into the carp in the water today. Next to the pool, there is a hidden cave in the building complex, which is said to be the birthplace of the Prophet Abraham, and therefore attracts believers from all over to visit. Today, it is also a must-visit place when traveling to Şanlıurfa.

Historical place in Urfa, Turkey. It is known by the people all over the world that this is the place where Prophet Abraham was thrown into the fire. Upstairs, there is the Urfa castle and the catapult. Catapult is the two pillars used when Abraham was thrown into the fire, and according to the history, Abraham did not burn and instead the surrounding where he fell turned into a pool. It is a valuable place in terms of faith tourism. You can feel strongly the history here. You can also buy bait to feed the fish there. There are plenty of green areas in this area where you can sit and relax. No entry fee so feel free to come back as many time as you want! 🍃🌿🌟🌤 #roadtrip #urbanexplorer #summervacation #templeblessed #ancientlandmark #summervacation#hikingtrails#urbanexplorer
