Istanbul has been a popular city for centuries with its historical and cultural richness. Topkapi Palace is the most magnificent proof of this wealth. The Palace was the administrative center of the Ottoman Empire for 400 years.

Mexican search and rescue dog Proteo has a special place for Turkish people. Proteo participated in efforts after the major earthquake disaster in 2023 and sadly fell ill and died here. We'll undoubtedly never forget him. Here a memory paint about Proteo in Karşıyaka, İzmir.👇🏻

Armenian government cover their sins with so-called genocide claims as always. Names changed during years but this lie couldn't find an end. Sadly some countries supported this situation with ignores research calls & historic documents. They still continue attacks over this lies.

The #Mostar Bridge offers its visitors a unique viewing pleasure over #Neretva . It was built in the 1560s by Architect Hayreddin, a student of the famous #Ottoman architect Great Sinan. Bridge was destroyed during the #Bosnia War between 92-95 and was rebuilt & opened in 2005.

Tiled Mosque is an admirable and at the same time unfortunate architectural work of #K ütahya. It was built in the 1970s. The mosque has become one of city symbols with its famous Kütahya tiles. Unfortunately, mosque was damaged and closed due to soil movements in its location.

Alaçatı is a small town in İzmir and its quite popular. In fact, this popularity is sometimes harmful. Small towns are losing its historical texture in crowds. I'd like to say a lot but thats another tweeting topic. However, Alaçatı is a town worth seeing. But in quiet times.

Today I visited the National Museum of #BosniaHerzegovina . In a word, it was a great experience. It's a modern museum covering archeology, ethnography, zoology and many different fields in big a complex. If you have a plan for #Sarajevo , you should definitely see this museum.👋🏻
