Dear Mick & Trudie, Well done to you both for stunning Izmir video like the others. As a native of Izmir, at the age of 49, you have described it perfectly. What a superb information was given to us and all. I am going to inform Friends of mine from Europe as well in the UK. Appreciated all for Izmir. Look forward to watch new episode of Izmir. Because many place there are and things to do Izmir and its around. Take it easy & best regards to you both.
No rush dear Mick, enjoy your time and do it in a good coffee break. Your videos are amazing and purely natural. I believe there are tons of Turkish people are deeply enjoying your videos.

" Ben bütün İzmir'i ve İzmirlileri severim . Güzel İzmir'in temiz kalpli insanlarının da beni sevdiklerinden eminim ." ( *GAZİ MUSTAFA KEMAL ATATÜRK* )
My grandparents were born in Izmir around 1920 and raised in this great city. They moved to Israel in 1949 after the establishment of the Jewish state. Jews lived hundreds of years in Turkey after the spanish deportation of the jews and they were spread all over the middle east. I think they were treated very well in Turkey and even during second world war they survived and then came to Israel!!!
I'm Turkish. My ancestry came from Ottoman Selanik (today Greece) to Izmir in 1923. Selanik in the Ottoman Empire was the New York of Jews in the world, culturally and population-wise.
Merhaba, I really enjoyed the Izmir tour. Izmir was my home from 1966 to 1968....population at that time 200,000 and ONE traffic light!!! I was military at the time with the NATO support group. The Korfon Hotel you stayed in back then was leased by the US government and was the Officers Club and hotel and temperory housing for officer grade US military. I was enlisted but assigned to the American dependents school (supply detail) located behind the French Hospital, (in a converted tobacco warehouse) which I believe is still there. I loved that city and had many Turkish friends who gave me a Turkish name, TAYFUN. I later returned to Istanbul to study at Robert College, est 1863.. The school is still operating, but back to high school level, no university level. Although I lived and worked 31 years in Japan and retired in Bangkok 16 years, my Turkish language skills exceed ALL! I enjoy all your Turkish You Tube videos!

Izmir is the most modern city of Turkey, a city that makes you feel like in Europe, just a little more investment is needed, but the state is investing in Istanbul only
The real name is Σμύρνη and not the Turkish invaders fabricated name .It belongs to Greece and according to the professy it will become Greek again when the time is right.
I had a fantastic year teaching English in Turkey - Ege Lisan Merkezi - 1985-86. Back then Izmir was a great place to live and my students, and Izmirlis in general, were so hospitable and friendly. According to this the city is now vastly more prosperous than back then. Great to see!
@@mickandtrudie As an Izmir inhabitant when I visited Barcelona I felt the same. Walking along the La Rambla is similar to Kıbrıs Şehitleri Street. Seaside is as well. Maybe that's why I liked Barcelona the most in Europe (I have only been in Italy, France, Spain and Greece, amoung them best city was Barcelona imho).
Lovely video Mick! Izmir is my favorite city in Turkey and you did a really amazing job showing its beauty and brightness! Cheers from the Netherlands 🇳🇱 🇹🇷
Üzücü olan ise Türkiye’de Türk sayısının gittikçe azalması ve İmzir’in en çok Türk nüfusuna sahip illerden biri olması. Bu güzel video için teşekkürler Mick amca:)
I've had 2 spells of living in İzmir and met my wife there. It's a great place to live and we miss Turkey greatly. Yet another great video, can't wait for the next one. Harika!

So i believe its super cheap... Any tips would be kind... We are staying in the Greymark hotel. Best wishes Warren and Nigel.

welcome to izmir. As a native of Izmir, it made me proud that you described our city so beautifully. It is especially honored that you include our September 9 liberation day in your video. Mustafa Kemal Atatürk is very precious to us, the people of Izmir. It is a pleasure that you have included this topic. you're amazing, it's a great video! ❤️
İzmir Alsancak'dan ibaret değil. Karşıyaka -Bostanlı , İnciraltı- Sahil Evleri, Urla/İskele ve Urla/Çeşmealtı ve İzmir lezzetlerinden "kelle söğüş" eksik, hatta oldukça eksik kalmış. Keşke Adana çekimi gibi daha kapsayıcı bir çekim olsaymış. Eksik bir çekim olmasına rağmen yine de çok başarılı. Teşekkürler Mick.
I am from İzmir, living in Manila/Philippines. This video made me so emotional.. Thank you for this beautiful video of my hometown! You guys are free spirit!
I am 42 and no one even no tv professionals have ever filmed my city this beautiful...I am sure cos I have seen tens of others...This is a perfect art piece for Izmir histoyrical archieve...If I visit Fethiye one day I'll honestly look for you to shake your hand...You are the man Uncle Mick 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

I was born and raised in Izmir but currently living in the United States.. While watching your video, I realized that I miss Izmir so much. You made a great video!
Perhaps you may want to make a comeback to Izmir. Nothing compares to our own hometown. Afterall Turkey has lots to offer. To me, it is a country of all era.
@@abhalimmohamed4313 Money is what Turkey doesn't offer to some. The young go abroad mainly for jobs and to be away from the right wing Erdogan government.
I lived in izmir for 6 years and this period was the best time of my life.I miss İzmir everyday. While I am watching this video, I smiled in every minute. Thanks a lot to show these beautiful places :)
Their videos are great. I just got back from Izmir this week and it was fantastic. Only downside was I didnt run into Mick and Trudie...Maybe when i go back! :)
As always, Mick and Trudie will give us a good content of their travel adventure. I believe everybody has started or will start to love Turkey after following Mick's video since day one. What a lovely country. Well done Mick and Trudie. Hope to see you all again with some more fascinating videos

I have been watching your content for a while and all I can say is that you are really good at making travelling videos because of your manner that prioritizes the local perspectives. As an inhabitant of İzmir , I really appreciate your effort to show the city.
Just an amazing city tour. I realized that I miss my hometown. Thank you also for reflecting us objectively. You should definitely add touristic routes such as Çeşme, Foça, Ephesus, Kuşadası.
You two have done an excellent job showing Izmir with the cinematography and storytelling of this documentary. I have had a growing interest in Turkey, especially Istanbul, and to a lesser extent Antalya and Cappadocia, but now Izmir has taken up all my attention. This city looks like a really great place to live.
Türkiyemizin Batıya Açılan Penceresi Güzel İzmir'i Çok Güzel Tanıtmışsınız. Anlatımlarınız her zamanki gibi çok doğal, samimi ve sempatik. Soluksuz, zevk alarak izletiyorsunuz. Emekleriniz için çok teşekkürler.

As someone who was born and raised in Izmir, I claim that this is the best and most comprehensive video of downtown Izmir. Loves from Ireland and thanks for making a video of my hometown. PS: We eat plain kokoreç while some eat with peppers and tomatoes inside which is called Istanbul kokoreç. PS2: Cumhuriyet square is the other big square just before coming to Gündogdu square from Konak.

thank you for correctly introducing my hometown :) other bloggers generally add some arabic music to the background and film only the ''islamic'' and ''exotic'' parts... enjoy your vacation :)
Hi Mick, Canadian born in Turkey.. Thanks for all the Turkey videos. About Izmir, Smyrna is the name in English and other languages, Turkish people never called the place Smyrna, long before the official declaration in 1930. BTW Turkish "Beylik" took over the city first time around 1330s...
Mick amca Doğduğum uzun yıllar yaşadığım şehri çok güzel anlatmışsın Teşekkür ederim.. Kızlar ağası hanını, Havra sokağını da gezin lütfen çok seveceksiniz 🌴🍀🌸♥
My son introduced you by showing me your few videos before:) Even I saw you in Izmir last week and shared with my son with happiness then this great video came! Our lovely hometown İzmir We both enjoyed watching. Thank you. Ellerinize sağlık:))
Hello Mick and Trudie. For our Izmir trips this video has been, and still is, an endless source of inspiration. This time we arrived yesterday with a catamaran directly from Midilli on Lesbos to the port in Alsancak. Three hours. The legendary Bomba is already sampled and more is to come. Thank you for your ground breaking work and endless positivity. You never drag your feet or show fatique.
I moved to izmir since two month.iam new here.You guys knew izmir better than us.its good to see how you present good places that makes me very happy your more than great thank you so much stay health and good wishes for your next trips.love you from izmir.🥰🙏❤
I have watched this 3 times and it’s a tie between Bursa and Izmir to be my favorite either way Thank You! Blessings from Florida and trying to escape, send me luck!
What a wonderful video, especially for me! Why me? Because my Father was in the US Navy, and in 1953 he was assigned to Izmir for two years, 1953-55, and so he took our entire family there from San Diego, California via prop plane across the Atlantic, stopping on a rainy night in Frankfurt to change planes, to Athens, to change planes (prop planes aren't JETS, LOL) and by morning we landed in Izmir's airport and took a car to the city of Izmir where the first time in my life I saw lots of camels on the streets. How exciting it was!. I was almost 7 years old and my sister 9 years old. We went to school in an American school housed in an apartment building near Alsanchak, where we lived across our back fence of a mosque, the Alsancak Hocazade Camii, across our back fence, probably the Chims Line cafe building now on 1392 Sk. I am now nearly 76. We visited Ephesus while we lived in Izmir. I recall the castle on the hill where I remember being told that the Apostle Paul was once there, and of course Izmir, the old Smyrna, is the city where Polycarp lived and was martyred in the second century AD. I do remember in those days the shopping markets, but at that time there were no skyscrapers, underground rails, or highways. There were FEW cars and we got around often via horse and carriage. My parents talked of Ataturk, and the recent past, but I didn't learn about that history until I went to school again in the USA. Eisenhower was our President while we were in Izmir, a highlight of my childhood! We returned the USA and NYCity via US Navy passenger ship across the Atlantic, which took 2 weeks and 4 days. On our way through the Mediterranean via ship, we stopped in Naples and toured Pompeii, which in those days wasn't nearly as unearthed as it is today. I can still count to FIVE in Turkish, though it has been many years ago. We did visit Karshiyaka, where I saw the BIGGEST pomegranates I'd ever seen. Coming from San Diego, I found that Izmir has nearly the same climate and weather and layout of the city as San Diego, with it huge bay and waterfront. Our Navy ship left for the USA right along that main waterfront shown in your video. Thank you for this very lovely tour that brought back many great memories of my brief childhood.🌹
@@mickandtrudie A book?That's a good idea. But it was me at age 8 came up with the crazy idea that my sister and I should ride around Izmir on our tricycle: our Stepmother was in the American hospital with yellow jaundice so our neighbors watched us during the day times. We filled our water bottles with water with pills to purify the water, packed up our tricycle and hopped on it together for a joyride. (I had learned my way around Izmir by watching my parents so I knew how to get around). We had no money, only a sandwich or so, and made it back by afternoon - stupid idea because we could have been kidnapped! But, it was such FUN! As a family we visited Ephesus too, and my stepmother put a piece of a carved stone she found there in her purse and today it sits on my shelf at home. (She could have been arrested!) We often went to the American open0air movies where we saw Jerry Lewis/Dean Martin movies, drank 5c cokes from a bottle, and saw many Westerns on the big screen with other Americans, you know, John Wayne, etc. We had a very exciting trip back westerly across the Atlantic to NYC harbor, and then to the New Jersey Olds factory where my Dad picked up his brand NEW 88 1955 Merry Olsmobile, two=-tone blue, 4 door, then we drove across the USA in it to visit his mother in Stockton, California in those days. Don't get me wrong, the only drawback was the many vaccinations we had to get before we left the USA overseas: those weren't fun at all. But I love Izmir! I loved the Mediterranean Sea, and I loved the 1950s, the BEST of American in those days! I didn't realize that Izmir's name was changed from Smyrna in 1930. Not long ago. What a history Izmir has!!
What an incredible thing to have experienced at such a young age. Thank you for sharing your wonderful story - do you have any photographs taken from that period you were in Izmir? 🙋♀️
@@mickandtrudie A few photos yes. Turkey was very different i those days...I watched their military march down our street, and an uprising between Turks and Greeks, in which a neighbor family (a Jewish family) had their furniture thrown down into the street from their 4th floor apartment (sad) because of the squrimish. I swam topless (lol) in the Mediterranean on one family excursion to a beach area (don't remember the area), but I've lost that photo and also the one of me dancing on the ruins of the Temple of Diana. I recall at my age, 8, seeing that Pompeii had plumbing pipes on the sides of the streets and wondered, "Did they have plumbing in those days?" Yes they did. What an education for me at that age. My Dad was a Chief in the US Navy, radar, electronics, and a background before the Navy in broadcasting in radio in the Stockton area. He had taught woodwinds (music) in the schools. I still have his Albert system clarinet, a full-body one with no joint in the middle. It still plays as do his gold-plated King Alto Saxophone, now vintage instruments that I play from time to time (I'm a musician, professional for over 60 years, piano, all strings, violin, viola, cello, bass) and these were some of the best years of my life, the 1850s! Thanks Mick and Trudie! You're a darling couple. I've been to the UK 5 times, the first to attend the International String Teacher's Conference in Glasgow, at the University there in 1999, where I got to play cello in the orchestra, the "Hebrides" Suite. Wonderful! And later I took my son and granddaughter to London and Scotland. I've been also 3 times to New Zealand, mostly South Island, Roxburgh, the fruit-growing capital of the world. And whilst there my friend arranged a visit to the sheep meat works, not often possible, but arranged because the Manager was his personal friend. I got to see how a nation supports itself. I missed all the sheep on the hills when I flew back home. Every nation has its own GLORY! I look for world PEACE when the next phase of international conflict is over.🌹
Dogma buyume izmirliyim hele baba tarafi eski izmirli sonradan gelme degil bir Alsancakli ve izmirli olarak bu kadar guzel izmiri anlatan omrumde gormedim harikaydi
Mick and Trudie definitely hit most of the places I know in Alsancak. I'm dying to go visit again some day... Never tried a Bomba but next time I walk past it I'll be sure to stop by!
You mixed and highlighted everything that makes this city so special. Whilst most travel videos are samey and characterless, you two have stood out like a diamond. Bless you both from a Turk living in the West Midlands, you’d be welcome anytime in Izmir

Very nice video; thanks. We are thinking to move there and this gave me a head start on what there is to see.

Izmir is a really wonderfup and vibrant city. You have lively neighborhoods like Karşıyaka, Bostanlı, Konak, Alsancak, Bayraklı, and Bornova. Or you could visit cute coastal towns such as: Foca, Yeni Foça, Dikili, Bademli, Çeşme, Alaçatı, Seferihisar, Aliağa, Sığacık, Dikili, Yenişakran, and Bademli.

Üzücü olan ise Türkiye’de Türk sayısının gittikçe azalması ve İmzir’in en çok Türk nüfusuna sahip illerden biri olması. Bu güzel video için teşekkürler Mick amca:)
We lived in Izmir for a total of 6 years. A piece of my heart is still there.
I've had 2 spells of living in İzmir and met my wife there. It's a great place to live and we miss Turkey greatly. Yet another great video, can't wait for the next one. Harika!
We are visiting the UK at the moment to see family so travel videos will continue when we get back
@@mickandtrudie Hey guys.. Thanks for you video of Izmir.. We are going there in a few weeks after a 10 day trip to Hurghada in Egypt... I see the exchange rate is so good at the moment... So i believe its super cheap... Any tips would be kind... We are staying in the Greymark hotel. Best wishes Warren and Nigel.

What an amazing city! Been twice and can't wait to go back. İzmir has so much to offer for all ages. We just fell in love İzmir ❤️

welcome to izmir. As a native of Izmir, it made me proud that you described our city so beautifully. It is especially honored that you include our September 9 liberation day in your video. Mustafa Kemal Atatürk is very precious to us, the people of Izmir. It is a pleasure that you have included this topic. you're amazing, it's a great video! ❤️
Mustafa skata! was a murderer who expatriated millions of Greeks and Armenians by committing genocides and attrocities of innocent indegenous people.
maybe in our next Turkiye's trip, we'll put Izmir in our list. Last time, we skipped Izmir and we went for Bursa, which also a lovely place.
İzmir Alsancak'dan ibaret değil. Karşıyaka -Bostanlı , İnciraltı- Sahil Evleri, Urla/İskele ve Urla/Çeşmealtı ve İzmir lezzetlerinden "kelle söğüş" eksik, hatta oldukça eksik kalmış. Keşke Adana çekimi gibi daha kapsayıcı bir çekim olsaymış. Eksik bir çekim olmasına rağmen yine de çok başarılı. Teşekkürler Mick.
I am from İzmir, living in Manila/Philippines. This video made me so emotional.. Thank you for this beautiful video of my hometown! You guys are free spirit!

I lived in Izmir for many years. Goodness I miss it so much 😔 thank you for taking my heart home even if just for half an hour ❤️
You two have done an excellent job showing Izmir with the cinematography and storytelling of this documentary. I have had a growing interest in Turkey, especially Istanbul, and to a lesser extent Antalya and Cappadocia, but now Izmir has taken up all my attention. This city looks like a really great place to live.

As someone who was born and raised in Izmir, I claim that this is the best and most comprehensive video of downtown Izmir. Loves from Ireland and thanks for making a video of my hometown. PS: We eat plain kokoreç while some eat with peppers and tomatoes inside which is called Istanbul kokoreç. PS2: Cumhuriyet square is the other big square just before coming to Gündogdu square from Konak.
Videoya bayıldım sunucular çok iyi anlatıyor. Doğma büyüme İzmirli biri olarak gezdiğim yerleri burada görmek ilginç geldi bana nedense. 18 yaşındayım ve 18 yıldır Izmirde yaşamama rağmen Konak Pierin Eyfel Kulesinin mimarı Gustave Eiffel tarafından tasarlandigini bunu izlerken öğrendim şu an
Edit: Turkiyenin en kozmopolit sehri Istanbuldur İzmir değil ama Istanbuldan sonra İzmir olabilir
Edit2: Fuardaki İrem Derici konserine ben de gitmiştim
Basmane Garınında mimarı Gustave Eiffel...
Kozmopolit 2. İl olarak izmir geçer heryerde . Konstantinopoli ile karıştırmış olabilirsiniz bence . Ayrıca eiffel basmane garınında mimarıdır.

Hi Mick, Canadian born in Turkey.. Thanks for all the Turkey videos. About Izmir, Smyrna is the name in English and other languages, Turkish people never called the place Smyrna, long before the official declaration in 1930. BTW Turkish "Beylik" took over the city first time around 1330s...
Thanks for the high quality of your videos, full of local life et you are very smart, thanks

I’m so happy you liked it 🤠
I have been watching your videos even before my departure to turkey,I followed your footsteps to Eskisehir and now I’m in Izmir 😆
How did you find them ?
Thank you, Uncle Nick. Your hardwork is highly appreciated. Keep up with your good work.
Hello Mick and Trudie.
For our Izmir trips this video has been, and still is, an endless source of inspiration.
This time we arrived yesterday with a catamaran directly from Midilli on Lesbos to the port in Alsancak. Three hours.
The legendary Bomba is already sampled and more is to come.
Thank you for your ground breaking work and endless positivity.
You never drag your feet or show fatique.

I have watched this 3 times and it’s a tie between Bursa and Izmir to be my favorite either way Thank You! Blessings from Florida and trying to escape, send me luck!
Did you escape yet
What a wonderful video, especially for me! Why me? Because my Father was in the US Navy, and in 1953 he was assigned to Izmir for two years, 1953-55, and so he took our entire family there from San Diego, California via prop plane across the Atlantic, stopping on a rainy night in Frankfurt to change planes, to Athens, to change planes (prop planes aren't JETS, LOL) and by morning we landed in Izmir's airport and took a car to the city of Izmir where the first time in my life I saw lots of camels on the streets. How exciting it was!. I was almost 7 years old and my sister 9 years old. We went to school in an American school housed in an apartment building near Alsanchak, where we lived across our back fence of a mosque, the Alsancak Hocazade Camii, across our back fence, probably the Chims Line cafe building now on 1392 Sk. I am now nearly 76. We visited Ephesus while we lived in Izmir. I recall the castle on the hill where I remember being told that the Apostle Paul was once there, and of course Izmir, the old Smyrna, is the city where Polycarp lived and was martyred in the second century AD. I do remember in those days the shopping markets, but at that time there were no skyscrapers, underground rails, or highways. There were FEW cars and we got around often via horse and carriage. My parents talked of Ataturk, and the recent past, but I didn't learn about that history until I went to school again in the USA. Eisenhower was our President while we were in Izmir, a highlight of my childhood! We returned the USA and NYCity via US Navy passenger ship across the Atlantic, which took 2 weeks and 4 days. On our way through the Mediterranean via ship, we stopped in Naples and toured Pompeii, which in those days wasn't nearly as unearthed as it is today. I can still count to FIVE in Turkish, though it has been many years ago. We did visit Karshiyaka, where I saw the BIGGEST pomegranates I'd ever seen. Coming from San Diego, I found that Izmir has nearly the same climate and weather and layout of the city as San Diego, with it huge bay and waterfront. Our Navy ship left for the USA right along that main waterfront shown in your video. Thank you for this very lovely tour that brought back many great memories of my brief childhood.🌹
What a fantastic story, I hope your writing a book about this, thank you for One of the best comments I’ve read 🤠🙋♀️
@@mickandtrudie A book?That's a good idea. But it was me at age 8 came up with the crazy idea that my sister and I should ride around Izmir on our tricycle: our Stepmother was in the American hospital with yellow jaundice so our neighbors watched us during the day times. We filled our water bottles with water with pills to purify the water, packed up our tricycle and hopped on it together for a joyride. (I had learned my way around Izmir by watching my parents so I knew how to get around). We had no money, only a sandwich or so, and made it back by afternoon - stupid idea because we could have been kidnapped! But, it was such FUN! As a family we visited Ephesus too, and my stepmother put a piece of a carved stone she found there in her purse and today it sits on my shelf at home. (She could have been arrested!) We often went to the American open0air movies where we saw Jerry Lewis/Dean Martin movies, drank 5c cokes from a bottle, and saw many Westerns on the big screen with other Americans, you know, John Wayne, etc. We had a very exciting trip back westerly across the Atlantic to NYC harbor, and then to the New Jersey Olds factory where my Dad picked up his brand NEW 88 1955 Merry Olsmobile, two=-tone blue, 4 door, then we drove across the USA in it to visit his mother in Stockton, California in those days. Don't get me wrong, the only drawback was the many vaccinations we had to get before we left the USA overseas: those weren't fun at all. But I love Izmir! I loved the Mediterranean Sea, and I loved the 1950s, the BEST of American in those days! I didn't realize that Izmir's name was changed from Smyrna in 1930. Not long ago. What a history Izmir has!!
What an incredible thing to have experienced at such a young age. Thank you for sharing your wonderful story - do you have any photographs taken from that period you were in Izmir? 🙋♀️
@@MargaretWalkerCellist you should come back to Izmir and get someone to video your story 🤠
@@mickandtrudie A few photos yes. Turkey was very different i those days...I watched their military march down our street, and an uprising between Turks and Greeks, in which a neighbor family (a Jewish family) had their furniture thrown down into the street from their 4th floor apartment (sad) because of the squrimish. I swam topless (lol) in the Mediterranean on one family excursion to a beach area (don't remember the area), but I've lost that photo and also the one of me dancing on the ruins of the Temple of Diana. I recall at my age, 8, seeing that Pompeii had plumbing pipes on the sides of the streets and wondered, "Did they have plumbing in those days?" Yes they did. What an education for me at that age. My Dad was a Chief in the US Navy, radar, electronics, and a background before the Navy in broadcasting in radio in the Stockton area. He had taught woodwinds (music) in the schools. I still have his Albert system clarinet, a full-body one with no joint in the middle. It still plays as do his gold-plated King Alto Saxophone, now vintage instruments that I play from time to time (I'm a musician, professional for over 60 years, piano, all strings, violin, viola, cello, bass) and these were some of the best years of my life, the 1850s! Thanks Mick and Trudie! You're a darling couple. I've been to the UK 5 times, the first to attend the International String Teacher's Conference in Glasgow, at the University there in 1999, where I got to play cello in the orchestra, the "Hebrides" Suite. Wonderful! And later I took my son and granddaughter to London and Scotland. I've been also 3 times to New Zealand, mostly South Island, Roxburgh, the fruit-growing capital of the world. And whilst there my friend arranged a visit to the sheep meat works, not often possible, but arranged because the Manager was his personal friend. I got to see how a nation supports itself. I missed all the sheep on the hills when I flew back home. Every nation has its own GLORY! I look for world PEACE when the next phase of international conflict is over.🌹

You are a very cute couple. It is an admirable move to research and know the places you visit.
Very nice video; thanks. We are thinking to move there and this gave me a head start on what there is to see.
Izmir is a really wonderfup and vibrant city. You have lively neighborhoods like Karşıyaka, Bostanlı, Konak, Alsancak, Bayraklı, and Bornova. Or you could visit cute coastal towns such as: Foca, Yeni Foça, Dikili, Bademli, Çeşme, Alaçatı, Seferihisar, Aliağa, Sığacık, Dikili, Yenişakran, and Bademli. Another wondeful side of Izmir is that it is just 20km away from the city if Manisa with amazing places to visit either🌍😊
