Öncellikle hoş geldiniz. Kars'ın yabancı gezginlere tanıtılması adına çok teşekkür ederim. Harika bir gezi ve harika bir video olmuş. Kar'ın en güzel zamanına tanık olmayışınız üzücü olmuş.
Such a nice and very objective video. My grandmother's family was from Kars. Very nice to see that the Armenian heritage is well preserved and also is not being hidden. Armenians used to live here for thousands of years. I will visit Kars for sure once the border is open between our countries. Tesekkurler video-nun icin :)
I love the fact that you travelled away from Istanbul for a change and this time around explored the eastern part of Turkey that is often overlooked. Turkey is indeed much more than Istanbul. In fact, there are many Turkish cities in the east that are renowned for their rich history and culinary specialties and definitely worth a visit. Thanks a lot for sharing useful information and your wonderful journey with us. For upcoming videos, how about covering cities on the Black Sea coast?
Yeah! We also wanted a bit of change in cities, we want to show you all other interesting cities that are not that explored by foreign tourists. We’re still deciding what region should we choose next, we are between Black Sea Region and SE 🇹🇷, I’ve been to the Black Sea region since I was living there already so had the chance to visit many cities there, maybe that’s why we might choose SE🇹🇷 because it might be something new for me too 😅
When we visited Kars, we really loved it. Kars has lots of things to offer. The view from the castle was breathtaking, when I close my eyes, I can still visualize it. Love & respect from Bangladesh
Very beatiful your video. My grandmother was born there in a village near KARS but she left during 1918. She said me that winder started there from October till almost April, she loved everything there
I had some idea about Kars but I never knew that this place has so much to offer to its tourists. The whole video was excellent but the ANI Armenian Site was something out of this world with stunningly beautiful landscape. Loved those historical buildings, I wish they were preserved in their original form. Hats off to Team Berry Istanbul Tips for bringing this beautiful video to the world👏👏👏

@@Asad4034 it’s rather sad. It used to be an Armenian capital that strived off Armenian culture before the genocide. Now many buildings need to be restorated and many residents don’t even know the meaning of the architecture. Most of the churches down there are used as breeding stable
@@zohrabp2142 Indeed, it's sad to know about the destruction this iconic city recieved over a period of time. Good to know that It has now been designated as UNESCO World Heritage Site. Let's hope for conservation as well as restoration of this valuable heritage by the concerned authorities. Really impressed by the Armenian architecture and their rich history.
@@zohrabp2142 This place was inhabited for a very long time. Ani never recovered from a devastating 1319 earthquake and, more significantly, from the shifting of regional trade routes, and was abandoned by the 17th century. It is not related with the relocation orders of WW1 and war between Armenia and Turkey afterwards. The history of science and archeology are rather new. Most of the people in the region probably had no idea regarding cultural significance of the location and use the stones and rocks for other purposes whether it is armenian /turkish/kurdish/persian...etc If a building is not in use, they took the raw material for other purposes. We can see similar approach in basicila cistern of Istanbul, upside-down medusa. The Christian romans put that stone in their water tank :)))
Ani is truly impressive, I’ve visited many archeological sites in this country including the most touristy ones, but Ani was so special. After visiting Kars I became even more curious in Armenia heritage, culture and history, now I want to travel there soon ❤️
Romantic, stunning multicultural, yet slightly chilling city where the age-old superpower rivals Ottoman Empire and Russian Empire came to a showdown. Ani is a treasure of humankind. Wonderful one-and-only remote-yet-cosmopolitan border town Kars!
Thank you for presenting Kars in such a detailed and informative way. This really helped! Looking forward to visiting it. All your videos are so informative. Keep up the great work!!
My mom is from kars ❤️❤️❤️ she is ethnic Turkish Azerbaijani, with zaza Kurdish roots And my family argues if my grandma is from Georgia. Its lovely to see this city, since it’s often unknown❤️❤️ my two aunts were born here and went to Germany as ages of 9, where eventually my mom was born. In Germany my mom met my bosnian dad. one day I will visit and explore the city of my ancestors ❤️🩹
Currently reading "Snow" by Orhan Pamuk which is set in Kars. I really wanted to get an insight into what the city looks like, even though the descriptions of it in the book are so hauntingly beautiful. I would want to visit absolutely every part of Turkey one day ❤️
Came across your video while researching for my trip. I am planning to visit Turkey for the 1st time. Your video helps alot. I will be sure putting Kars in the travel list.
This is very interesting. The soups in the beginning are Armenian in origin. We make Bulgur Pilaf and Chash (soup). Also the other lighter colored soups car a variant of Sepas soup. Made with curled milk.
Armenian Highlands Armenian Kingdom was Eastern Turkey. Ottoman Turkey was established in 1453. Turkiye (new spelling) celebrated its 569th Anniversary in May 2022. Western Turkey was Byzantine/Eastern Roman Empire.
Armenian history and heritage is so rich, after visiting Kars and learning just a bit of it, now I became even more curious about Armenian culture and I’d love to travel there very soon ❤️
Tarihi Kars’ın bilinen ilk sâkinleri Hurrilerdir. Daha sonra Hititlerin hâkimiyetine girmişlerdir. Hurriler bölgeye “yüksek ülke” veya “yukarı eller” demişlerdir. Bölge, daha sonra Urartuların işgâline uğradı. M.Ö. 8. asırda Kimmerler buradan geçtiler. Asurlar ve Babiller buraya hâkim olamadılar. İskitler M.Ö. 7. asırda bu bölgeye hâkim oldular. M.Ö. 6. asırda Perslerin istilâsına uğradı. Dârâ, Kafkasya Seferini buradan geçerek yaptı. M.Ö. 4. asırda Makedonya Kralıİskender, Persleri yenerek burasını ele geçirdi. Partlar ve bunlara bağlı Ermeni derebeylikleri zaman zaman bölgeye hâkim oldular. M.Ö. 1. asırda Pontos Krallığını yıkan Romalılar bu bölgeye yaklaştı. M.S. 2. asırda Romalıların eline geçti. Daha sonra Partlar ve onların yerine geçen Sâsânîler ile Romalılar arasında el değiştirdi. M.S. 395’te Roma ikiye bölününce bu bölge, bütün Anadolu gibi Doğu Roma (Bizans)nın payına düştü. Bu bölge, Bizans ile Sâsânîler arasında sık sık el değiştirdi ve buradaki derebeyleri bâzan İran bâzan da Bizans’a tâbi oldular. M.S. 7. asırda İslâm orduları bu bölgeyi fethedince Ermeni derebeyleri, Abbâsî halifelerine tâbi oldular. Bölge ahâlisi, kütleler hâlinde İslâmiyetle şereflenerek, İslâmiyet, Kars ve civarında hızla yayıldı. Türk Sâcoğulları ve onların yerine geçen Şeddâdiler bu bölgeye hâkim oldular ve Ermenilerle mücâdele ettiler. Onuncu asrın ortasında Kars’a 50 km mesâfede Ani şehrini başşehir yapan Ermeni derebeyleri 1044’te Bizanslılar tarafından bölgeden kovuldular. Yirmi senelik Bizans hâkimiyetinden sonra büyük Türk Hakanı Selçuklu Sultanı Alparslan 1064’te Ani’yi fethederek Bizanslıları buradan attı. Kars, Anadolu’nun Türkler tarafından fethedilen ilk parçası oldu. Bu fetih 1071 Malazgirt Zaferinden yedi sene önce olmuştur. Türkiye Selçukluları Devletini kuran Kutalmışoğlu Süleyman Şahın babası Kutalmış Bey, 1049 ve 1053 Anadolu akınlarına giderken Kars’tan geçti. 1058 akınında Selçuklu şehzâdelerinden Yakuti Kars’ın dış mahallelerini fethetti. Sultan Alparslan, 1068’de Ardahan’ı fethetti. Alp Arslan’ın oğlu SultanMelikşah, Kars’ı geri almak isteyen Bizanslıları 1080’de yenerek bu bölgeyi Erzurum’u merkez yapan Saltukoğullarına verdi. 1124’te Gürcüler, Ani ve Kars’ı ele geçirince, Saltukoğulları 1153’te Kars’ı geri aldı. 1226’da Celâleddin Harezmşah, Ani’yi kuşatmış fakat alamamıştır. Tiflis’i fethetmiştir. 1239’da Moğollar Kars ve Ani’yi alarak, Gürcüleri buradan uzaklaştırmışlardır. Sırasıyla İlhanlılar, Celâyirliler, Tîmûrlular, Karakoyunlular ve Akkoyunlular bölgeye hâkim oldular. Tîmûr Han, 1394, 1400 ve 1403’te Kars’tan geçti. Safevîler, Akkoyunlu İmparatorluğunu yıkınca, mîrasına konarak Kars’a hâkim oldular. Bu sırada Osmanlı Devletinin sınırları da Kars’a dayanmıştı. Yavuz Sultan Selim Han, Çaldıran Seferinden dönerken Kars Kalesi yakınında konakladı. Kars ve çevresi, 1534’te Kânûnî Sultan Süleyman Hanın ilk yıllarında Safevîlerden Osmanlılara geçti. Osmanlı Devleti ile Safevî Devleti arasındaki stratejik çarpışmalar, Kars bölgesinde cereyan etti. 1548’de Sultan Süleyman Han, Kars Kalesini tahkim ettirdi. Safevîler, zaman zaman Kars’a saldırdılar. Sultan ÜçüncüMurâd Han, 1579’da birkaç hafta içinde Kars şehrini yeni baştan inşâ ettirip, kale, sur, câmi ve her türlü tesisleri yeniden yaptırdı, böylece 16. asırda Türk ordusunun istihkâm sınıfı burada parlak bir imtihan verdi. Kars, Osmanlıların askerî bir üssü ve serhat şehri oldu. 1604’te Safevîler, âni bir hücumla Kars’ı işgal ettilerse de tekrar çıkarıldılar. 1616’da Kars Kalesi yeniden geniş ölçüde tahkim edildi. Sultan Dördüncü Murâd Han, Revan Seferinde buradan geçti ve Kars’ı yeniden îmâr etti. On yedinci asırda Kars ve Çıldır, iki ayrı beylerbeyliğin merkezleri oldular. 29 Mayıs 1664’te başlayan ve bir hafta devam eden zelzele büyük zarar verdi. 1734’te Nâdir Şah Avşar, Kars’ı iki defa, 1744’te üçüncü defa kuşattı ise de alamadı. 1807’de Ruslar, Kars’a kadar yaklaştı fakat Osmanlı ordusu, Rusları yenerek, Tiflis’e geri çekilmek mecburiyetinde bıraktı. 1821-1823 arasında İranlılar, Kars topraklarına akınlar yaparak Osmanlıları yıprattılar. Sonra da Ruslar, saldırarak 15 Temmuz 1828’de Kars’ı işgal ettiler. 8 ay sonra Edirne Muâhedesi ile Kars’ı terk ettilerse de Kars’ın üçte ikisini ve târihi bütün eserlerini, câmi ve türbeleri imhâ ettiler. 1853-1856 Kırım Harbinde bu bölgede büyük savaşlar oldu. Rusların 29 Eylül 1855 taarruzu Kars halkının (genç, yaşlı, erkek, kadın ve hatta çocukların) desteği ile Müşir Mehmed Vâsıf Paşa emrindeki Türk ordusu tarafından geri püskürtüldü. Bu zaferin hatırası olarak altın, gümüş ve bronz“Kars 1272” madalyaları bastırıldı ve Kars şehrine “Gâzi” ünvanı verildi. Halk üç sene vergi ve askerlikten muaf tutuldu. Ruslar, 1856’da Paris Antlaşması ile bu bölgede 5 ay kaldıktan sonra geri çekildiler. Kars çevresinin ikinci Rus işgali böylece sona erdi. Doksanüç Harbi denen 1877-1878 Türk-Rus Harbinde Kars çevresinde dünyâ çapında önem taşıyan muhârebeler olmuştur. Bu târihte Kars 20 bin nüfuslu ve 25 câmili bi
Lavash and its name are of Assyrian or Aramean origin. (ܠܵܘܵܫܵܐ lawasha "a flap of thin bread"). It's one of the most widespread types of bread in Iran, Azerbaijan, Armenia, eastern & southeastern Turkey and northern Iraq. Duduk is also an important part of the music tradition of Azerbaijan where it's called balaban. The word duduk comes from Turkish düdük which is cognates with Turkmen tüýdük. The Turkmen🇹🇲 musical instrument tüýdük is like a longer version of duduk. Look at its photos.
Please tell us about the Degu Express. Do you have information on when the BTK (Baku, Teblisi, Kars) passenger service may begin. I want to go from Istanbul to Tbilisi on the train.
there is a cargo train but its not possible for passengers yet. recently i talked with local people, they told me it will open for passengers incoming summer. but i am not sure actually.
Bery, I am loving your videos! I will be travelling to Turkiye mid August for 25 days. Trying to plan our time now. Would Kars still be good to visit in the summer? Every time I see it mentioned, it's around winter time. I am still trying to figure out how to fit in Konya, Mt. Nemrut, now very interested to see Kars, saw your video the other day about Eskisehir- so now I want to see that. We booked a tour to see most of SW Turkiye, we will have about 5-6 days where we can do SE including the stuff I mentioned (which yes is still some SW stuff). What would you recommend? FYI near the end of the tour we booked, last stop is Cappadocia before heading back to Istanbul so I am open to detour on my own from there if it makes it easier to go to some of my aforementioned destinations.
During summers, Kars is not as hot as other cities in Southeast of Turkey or Capadoccia. do not worry. so summer is also a good time to visit. may be after Cappadocia you can go to Kayseri (1.30h from Cappadocia) take a train to Erzurum (3-4 hours are enough to see Erzurum, you can watch Bery's Erzurum video) then take a bus to Kars. or you can take a direct bus from Kayseri or Konya too. there is a direct flight to Erzurum and Kars from Ankara too. OR after capadoccia you can visit Konya, (5-6h is enough to see the main attractions of the city) then take a bus to Eskisehir (a day is enough) then from Eskisehir to Ankara take a train. then you can take bus or flight to Kars from Ankara. after Kars you can visit ishapasa palace, van, mardin, midyat, diyarbakir, mt nemrut, urfa, Antep. but 5-6 days would not be enough.
What an amazing tour log. Kars sure lives up to its name with all the snow :D :D :D The amount of hard work put in your videos shows. Keep it going bery. Till we meet gurush shurusz ;-)
Kars indeed is a winter wonderland ❄️ Thank you so much for you words! Indeed this video took us a lot of time and effort, actually it was one of the most difficult ones we have made so far, but we enjoyed editing it a lot! 🙏
More likely is not the same price as 2 years ago when we visited. But it was something like 1,000 or 1,500 TL, can’t remember exactly but don’t expect the price to be the same years later, inflation is at its best now.
Thank you for the video. Despite the people in kars not speak english very well, but they are friendly. Very happy to visit this city even people in turkey still shock when I said I want to go to kars. 🥰🥰 find kars because of your video but only did the kars gari from kars to erzurum.
So true! English is not widely spoken there but people try to communicate with us, body language is our best friend in those cases and a big smile ❤️ We didn’t take the train from Ankara either, we did the same as you, from Erzurum to Kars. Thank you for watching us!
I suggest you to take thick warm clothes winter starts around Octobrr therr and lasts up to April. I am an English teacher here. Been living and exploring around for 2 years. Be my guest.
Been to Kars, end of 2021. Honestly, not the most friendly people there, had a bad experience throughout. Especially towards foreigners. My own experience.
Its so painful to see Kars in Turkey . My grandma was born and raised in Kars and in 1915 fleed to Armenia to escape genocide. Her entire family gave lots of gold to turk, who help them to escape. Since then Kars , that was Armenian, became Turkish.
Kars had been ruled by Turks since the 11th century. In 1915, Kars was under Russian rule, and the Muslims (Turkish people, Azerbaijani Karapapakh-Tarakamas and Kurds) made up the majority in Kars Oblast.
Of course, not just Kars. Mount Ararat, Erzurum and other cities are Armenian. Hopefully one day we can get our territories back, with Artsakh and Nakhichevan #ArmeniaStrong
@@Austine1452 Thank you, armenian nationalist just thinking them self, world is changed but they don't understand that even Turkey changed too Turks are not really "central Asian turk" if nationalists will go out of world, world will become more healthyer place.
@@metehanakar0 I’m Armenian living in Armenia 🇦🇲 I feel the same way we Armenians don’t need that bloody land we need peace these people who are making comments with their big mouths don’t even live in Armenia and their young boys are not fighting love and peace from Armenia♥️🇹🇷
First of all, thank you for your efforts in promoting the region. 🙏I must state about Ani that this archeological site is not an ermi city. Ani, an important settlement since the Iron Age, was a part of the lands of the Nairis and Urartians, who were natives of Anatolia. While walking around the area, I'm sure you've seen the caves too where people lived in ancient times. I mean, it would be better if you went with someone who is more competent and knows the area. 😉 Good luck🙏
This is FULLY ARMENIAN LAND that soviet russia gifted to turkey!! The same way they gifted ARMENIAN NAKHIJEVAN AND ARTSAKH to azrbejan!!! THIS IS A FACT, ALWAYS REMEMBER THAT THE LAND YOU LIVE ON BELONGS TO ARMENIA!!!!
Visit Pakistan too. It is a beautiful country of the world. People are hospitable. It is second to none in the world in terms of natural beauty and tasty food. It is a very safe country.
The cross where cut out because they where haram ! Did they have to build the mosque in church! Couldn’t they leave the churches as a historical side for turkey!
That's awful that even here russia participated. I'm Ukrainian and that's so sad Turkish traditional soup is called "Pushkin soup" in a name of russian poet. A cafe that you showed in the end of a video is called "raskolnikov rest." that is also a character name from a russian book by Dostoevsky. Made me feel disgusted. You can't tolerate and name YOUR culture after those who occupied you and made you suffer.
And isn’t Armenia in the Caucasian region among other countries such as Georgia, Azerbaijan, and some parts of Southern Russia? 🤔🤔 I’m asking in a good way because I like learning of other countries and cultures, so if you could please enlighten us with your wide knowledge not just us but others reading the comments, that could be great. Remember that commenting is not just throwing 💩, is way better doing it in a CONSTRUCTIVE WAY, that way we can all learn something from others, just saying.
@@BeryIstanbulTips You are so sweet it's really touching :) :) My anger, frustration and immense painful messages are not directed to YOU or to any good hearted person, it is directed to those who are responsible for all this hate and ongoing genocide - please understand that I have no hard feelings whatsoever against you or any good person - no matter if Turkish or whatever nation or religion or race. Its not a big deal - there was one dance&sound that was Armenian among the Caucasian ones. And Armenia is in the Caucasus region but as a Culture and Ethnicity and Nation Armenian (just like Turkish/Azeri) is not a Caucasian one. Armenian belongs to the Arian / Indo-European branch. And Turkish to the Turkic branch. But this all doesn't matter - I only liked to mention it because our haters always try to portray the Armenian as something else and nothing on its own - to show that nothing belongs to Armenia(ns) - but you are obviously not someone like that
Is so good reading this! Thank you so much for providing us more information about your country, as I said before, I love learning about other cultures and to me this comment has definitely taught me something new that I didn’t know before and I’m sure many others reading the comments section will also learn from your comment. Trust me, after visiting Kars and Erzurum (we know that all of that region including Igdir, Ardahan, Van, and other provinces) were Armenian lands now I want to visit Armenia even more, I was always so curious and interested in their history and culture but after visiting Ani now I’m even more interested in going there, hopefully one day soon and also that way I can learn more about your rich culture.
@@BeryIstanbulTips you are so lovely!! "My land" is your land, we are all one big family - I hope there will be peace and love between us and we can all keep our identity, culture and history with love and respect for eachother. My culture is not better than yours, they are both beautiful and deserving of love and preservance. There should be more great people like you, you are the most valued guest that we could have, i hope you will have the best time in Armenia and only positive feelings. Im so glad you exist and I wish you all the best and succes in your life 🙏 unfortunately I dont live in Armenia, otherwise I would show you around and make sure you have the best possible trip in Armenia. Tell everyone who thinks like you that so many Armenian people are grateful that you exist and for they way you are ❤

Good to see Turkey repairing the Armenian historical buildings and recognizing its Armenian heritage. Enjoyed your presentation. Selamlar from Canada.
Armenian history and heritage is so rich, after visiting Kars and learning just a bit of it, now I became even more curious about Armenian culture and I’d love to travel there very soon ❤️

Tarihi
Kars’ın bilinen ilk sâkinleri Hurrilerdir. Daha sonra Hititlerin hâkimiyetine girmişlerdir. Hurriler bölgeye “yüksek ülke” veya “yukarı eller” demişlerdir. Bölge, daha sonra Urartuların işgâline uğradı. M.Ö. 8. asırda Kimmerler buradan geçtiler. Asurlar ve Babiller buraya hâkim olamadılar. İskitler M.Ö. 7. asırda bu bölgeye hâkim oldular. M.Ö. 6. asırda Perslerin istilâsına uğradı. Dârâ, Kafkasya Seferini buradan geçerek yaptı. M.Ö. 4. asırda Makedonya Kralıİskender, Persleri yenerek burasını ele geçirdi. Partlar ve bunlara bağlı Ermeni derebeylikleri zaman zaman bölgeye hâkim oldular. M.Ö. 1. asırda Pontos Krallığını yıkan Romalılar bu bölgeye yaklaştı.
M.S. 2. asırda Romalıların eline geçti. Daha sonra Partlar ve onların yerine geçen Sâsânîler ile Romalılar arasında el değiştirdi. M.S. 395’te Roma ikiye bölününce bu bölge, bütün Anadolu gibi Doğu Roma (Bizans)nın payına düştü. Bu bölge, Bizans ile Sâsânîler arasında sık sık el değiştirdi ve buradaki derebeyleri bâzan İran bâzan da Bizans’a tâbi oldular.
M.S. 7. asırda İslâm orduları bu bölgeyi fethedince Ermeni derebeyleri, Abbâsî halifelerine tâbi oldular. Bölge ahâlisi, kütleler hâlinde İslâmiyetle şereflenerek, İslâmiyet, Kars ve civarında hızla yayıldı. Türk Sâcoğulları ve onların yerine geçen Şeddâdiler bu bölgeye hâkim oldular ve Ermenilerle mücâdele ettiler. Onuncu asrın ortasında Kars’a 50 km mesâfede Ani şehrini başşehir yapan Ermeni derebeyleri 1044’te Bizanslılar tarafından bölgeden kovuldular. Yirmi senelik Bizans hâkimiyetinden sonra büyük Türk Hakanı Selçuklu Sultanı Alparslan 1064’te Ani’yi fethederek Bizanslıları buradan attı. Kars, Anadolu’nun Türkler tarafından fethedilen ilk parçası oldu. Bu fetih 1071 Malazgirt Zaferinden yedi sene önce olmuştur.
Türkiye Selçukluları Devletini kuran Kutalmışoğlu Süleyman Şahın babası Kutalmış Bey, 1049 ve 1053 Anadolu akınlarına giderken Kars’tan geçti. 1058 akınında Selçuklu şehzâdelerinden Yakuti Kars’ın dış mahallelerini fethetti. Sultan Alparslan, 1068’de Ardahan’ı fethetti. Alp Arslan’ın oğlu SultanMelikşah, Kars’ı geri almak isteyen Bizanslıları 1080’de yenerek bu bölgeyi Erzurum’u merkez yapan Saltukoğullarına verdi. 1124’te Gürcüler, Ani ve Kars’ı ele geçirince, Saltukoğulları 1153’te Kars’ı geri aldı.
1226’da Celâleddin Harezmşah, Ani’yi kuşatmış fakat alamamıştır. Tiflis’i fethetmiştir. 1239’da Moğollar Kars ve Ani’yi alarak, Gürcüleri buradan uzaklaştırmışlardır. Sırasıyla İlhanlılar, Celâyirliler, Tîmûrlular, Karakoyunlular ve Akkoyunlular bölgeye hâkim oldular. Tîmûr Han, 1394, 1400 ve 1403’te Kars’tan geçti. Safevîler, Akkoyunlu İmparatorluğunu yıkınca, mîrasına konarak Kars’a hâkim oldular. Bu sırada Osmanlı Devletinin sınırları da Kars’a dayanmıştı. Yavuz Sultan Selim Han, Çaldıran Seferinden dönerken Kars Kalesi yakınında konakladı. Kars ve çevresi, 1534’te Kânûnî Sultan Süleyman Hanın ilk yıllarında Safevîlerden Osmanlılara geçti.
Osmanlı Devleti ile Safevî Devleti arasındaki stratejik çarpışmalar, Kars bölgesinde cereyan etti. 1548’de Sultan Süleyman Han, Kars Kalesini tahkim ettirdi. Safevîler, zaman zaman Kars’a saldırdılar. Sultan ÜçüncüMurâd Han, 1579’da birkaç hafta içinde Kars şehrini yeni baştan inşâ ettirip, kale, sur, câmi ve her türlü tesisleri yeniden yaptırdı, böylece 16. asırda Türk ordusunun istihkâm sınıfı burada parlak bir imtihan verdi. Kars, Osmanlıların askerî bir üssü ve serhat şehri oldu. 1604’te Safevîler, âni bir hücumla Kars’ı işgal ettilerse de tekrar çıkarıldılar. 1616’da Kars Kalesi yeniden geniş ölçüde tahkim edildi. Sultan Dördüncü Murâd Han, Revan Seferinde buradan geçti ve Kars’ı yeniden îmâr etti. On yedinci asırda Kars ve Çıldır, iki ayrı beylerbeyliğin merkezleri oldular. 29 Mayıs 1664’te başlayan ve bir hafta devam eden zelzele büyük zarar verdi. 1734’te Nâdir Şah Avşar, Kars’ı iki defa, 1744’te üçüncü defa kuşattı ise de alamadı. 1807’de Ruslar, Kars’a kadar yaklaştı fakat Osmanlı ordusu, Rusları yenerek, Tiflis’e geri çekilmek mecburiyetinde bıraktı. 1821-1823 arasında İranlılar, Kars topraklarına akınlar yaparak Osmanlıları yıprattılar. Sonra da Ruslar, saldırarak 15 Temmuz 1828’de Kars’ı işgal ettiler. 8 ay sonra Edirne Muâhedesi ile Kars’ı terk ettilerse de Kars’ın üçte ikisini ve târihi bütün eserlerini, câmi ve türbeleri imhâ ettiler. 1853-1856 Kırım Harbinde bu bölgede büyük savaşlar oldu. Rusların 29 Eylül 1855 taarruzu Kars halkının (genç, yaşlı, erkek, kadın ve hatta çocukların) desteği ile Müşir Mehmed Vâsıf Paşa emrindeki Türk ordusu tarafından geri püskürtüldü. Bu zaferin hatırası olarak altın, gümüş ve bronz“Kars 1272” madalyaları bastırıldı ve Kars şehrine “Gâzi” ünvanı verildi. Halk üç sene vergi ve askerlikten muaf tutuldu. Ruslar, 1856’da Paris Antlaşması ile bu bölgede 5 ay kaldıktan sonra geri çekildiler. Kars çevresinin ikinci Rus işgali böylece sona erdi.
Doksanüç Harbi denen 1877-1878 Türk-Rus Harbinde Kars çevresinde dünyâ çapında önem taşıyan muhârebeler olmuştur. Bu târihte Kars 20 bin nüfuslu ve 25 câmili bi
Kars is very similar to Gyumri
Of course, 100 percent
I wish visit this amazing town
At 23:45 they’re literally eating lavash with a duduk playing « ara vay » you definitely can not make more Armenian than that 😂
Lavash and its name are of Assyrian or Aramean origin. (ܠܵܘܵܫܵܐ lawasha "a flap of thin bread"). It's one of the most widespread types of bread in Iran, Azerbaijan, Armenia, eastern & southeastern Turkey and northern Iraq. Duduk is also an important part of the music tradition of Azerbaijan where it's called balaban. The word duduk comes from Turkish düdük which is cognates with Turkmen tüýdük. The Turkmen🇹🇲 musical instrument tüýdük is like a longer version of duduk. Look at its photos.
Turkish soups and cheese 🧀 makes me hungry 😊I want to try all 😍
This video is so professional done 😍 definitely your channel about Turkey 🇹🇷is my favourite 😊 greetings Bery 🤩
La novela “Nieve” de Orhan Pamuk está ambientada en Kars. Muy buen video como todos los que hacen 🙌🏽
Muchas gracias por vernos! ❤️🙏
Please tell us about the Degu Express. Do you have information on when the BTK (Baku, Teblisi, Kars) passenger service may begin. I want to go from Istanbul to Tbilisi on the train.
there is a cargo train but its not possible for passengers yet. recently i talked with local people, they told me it will open for passengers incoming summer. but i am not sure actually.

Turkey 🇹🇷 is beautiful 😍 amazing country 😊
Is it possible to arrive in Kars via airline? I am interested to reach Mt.Ararat
Yes, of course. We returned from Kars to Istanbul by plane.
if you plan to visit Mt. Ararat, land on Igdir Airport, its much more closer to mt Ararat and has daily flights to Istanbul and Ankara.
Lots of love ♥️ from India
Please do a video in Trabzon
We have it on the list, hopefully soon! I would love to go back to Trabzon 🥰
Bery, I am loving your videos! I will be travelling to Turkiye mid August for 25 days. Trying to plan our time now. Would Kars still be good to visit in the summer? Every time I see it mentioned, it's around winter time. I am still trying to figure out how to fit in Konya, Mt. Nemrut, now very interested to see Kars, saw your video the other day about Eskisehir- so now I want to see that. We booked a tour to see most of SW Turkiye, we will have about 5-6 days where we can do SE including the stuff I mentioned (which yes is still some SW stuff). What would you recommend? FYI near the end of the tour we booked, last stop is Cappadocia before heading back to Istanbul so I am open to detour on my own from there if it makes it easier to go to some of my aforementioned destinations.
During summers, Kars is not as hot as other cities in Southeast of Turkey or Capadoccia. do not worry. so summer is also a good time to visit. may be after Cappadocia you can go to Kayseri (1.30h from Cappadocia) take a train to Erzurum (3-4 hours are enough to see Erzurum, you can watch Bery's Erzurum video) then take a bus to Kars. or you can take a direct bus from Kayseri or Konya too. there is a direct flight to Erzurum and Kars from Ankara too. OR after capadoccia you can visit Konya, (5-6h is enough to see the main attractions of the city) then take a bus to Eskisehir (a day is enough) then from Eskisehir to Ankara take a train. then you can take bus or flight to Kars from Ankara. after Kars you can visit ishapasa palace, van, mardin, midyat, diyarbakir, mt nemrut, urfa, Antep. but 5-6 days would not be enough.
Where is sarmoung?
21:04 Bir Türk olarak böyle bir yerin varlığından yeni haberim oluyor :/
What an amazing tour log. Kars sure lives up to its name with all the snow :D :D :D The amount of hard work put in your videos shows. Keep it going bery. Till we meet gurush shurusz ;-)
Kars indeed is a winter wonderland ❄️
Thank you so much for you words! Indeed this video took us a lot of time and effort, actually it was one of the most difficult ones we have made so far, but we enjoyed editing it a lot! 🙏
Kars siempre fue de Armenia. Puede ser en idioma Españoi por favor?
Spectacular, awesome 🤩 and fabulous 😉
Thank you! Glad you enjoyed! ❤️🙏🙌
How much did you spend on the taxi for the whole day??
More likely is not the same price as 2 years ago when we visited. But it was something like 1,000 or 1,500 TL, can’t remember exactly but don’t expect the price to be the same years later, inflation is at its best now.
Thank you for the video. Despite the people in kars not speak english very well, but they are friendly. Very happy to visit this city even people in turkey still shock when I said I want to go to kars. 🥰🥰 find kars because of your video but only did the kars gari from kars to erzurum.
So true! English is not widely spoken there but people try to communicate with us, body language is our best friend in those cases and a big smile ❤️
We didn’t take the train from Ankara either, we did the same as you, from Erzurum to Kars. Thank you for watching us!
Thankyou for making this video. For female solo traveler, do we need to take or join some open trips to explore Kars?
God Bless the Land of Armenia

Been to Kars, end of 2021. Honestly, not the most friendly people there, had a bad experience throughout. Especially towards foreigners. My own experience.
Sorry to hear that, we didn’t experienced anything bad, i loved it 😊
🥶🥶🥶
Bu kadar soğuk değildi, bu piknik havasıydı 😆❄️
Its so painful to see Kars in Turkey . My grandma was born and raised in Kars and in 1915 fleed to Armenia to escape genocide. Her entire family gave lots of gold to turk, who help them to escape. Since then Kars , that was Armenian, became Turkish.
Wrong .
1915 kars was under russian occupation.
Armenians ( tashnaks )were ki...lling Turks
Dont lie.....
Kars was Turkish since 1064
Before that romans ruled anatolia and Kars .
Yes armenians lived in Kars at past but never ruled by armenians
dont worry HDP won the local elections in kars. They are predominantly kurdish and include some different minorities.
Kars had been ruled by Turks since the 11th century. In 1915, Kars was under Russian rule, and the Muslims (Turkish people, Azerbaijani Karapapakh-Tarakamas and Kurds) made up the majority in Kars Oblast.
Cost from Ankara to kars ?
It is around 1400 TL (100 usd)
"AYAYAYAYAYYYYY"
Beautiful Kurdistan
Kars was an Armenian city! That is why you see that there are so many old Armenian churches there!
Yerevan azerbayjan city
Of course, not just Kars. Mount Ararat, Erzurum and other cities are Armenian. Hopefully one day we can get our territories back, with Artsakh and Nakhichevan #ArmeniaStrong

First of all, thank you for your efforts in promoting the region. 🙏I must state about Ani that this archeological site is not an ermi city. Ani, an important settlement since the Iron Age, was a part of the lands of the Nairis and Urartians, who were natives of Anatolia. While walking around the area, I'm sure you've seen the caves too where people lived in ancient times. I mean, it would be better if you went with someone who is more competent and knows the area. 😉 Good luck🙏
Nairis and Urartians are the earliest predecessors to the Armenians, this is a common fact, and yes Azerbaijanis do have history 🇦🇲🇦🇿

The cross where cut out because they where haram ! Did they have to build the mosque in church! Couldn’t they leave the churches as a historical side for turkey!
It’s actually sad to see this beautiful church turned into a mosque.
Imagine how many Armenians was killed here and persecuted from their historical home lands
Cry
That's awful that even here russia participated. I'm Ukrainian and that's so sad Turkish traditional soup is called "Pushkin soup" in a name of russian poet. A cafe that you showed in the end of a video is called "raskolnikov rest." that is also a character name from a russian book by Dostoevsky. Made me feel disgusted. You can't tolerate and name YOUR culture after those who occupied you and made you suffer.

Armenian music and dance presented as caucasian
And isn’t Armenia in the Caucasian region among other countries such as Georgia, Azerbaijan, and some parts of Southern Russia? 🤔🤔
I’m asking in a good way because I like learning of other countries and cultures, so if you could please enlighten us with your wide knowledge not just us but others reading the comments, that could be great.
Remember that commenting is not just throwing 💩, is way better doing it in a CONSTRUCTIVE WAY, that way we can all learn something from others, just saying.
@@BeryIstanbulTips You are so sweet it's really touching :) :)
My anger, frustration and immense painful messages are not directed to YOU or to any good hearted person, it is directed to those who are responsible for all this hate and ongoing genocide - please understand that I have no hard feelings whatsoever against you or any good person - no matter if Turkish or whatever nation or religion or race.
Its not a big deal - there was one dance&sound that was Armenian among the Caucasian ones. And Armenia is in the Caucasus region but as a Culture and Ethnicity and Nation Armenian (just like Turkish/Azeri) is not a Caucasian one. Armenian belongs to the Arian / Indo-European branch. And Turkish to the Turkic branch. But this all doesn't matter - I only liked to mention it because our haters always try to portray the Armenian as something else and nothing on its own - to show that nothing belongs to Armenia(ns) - but you are obviously not someone like that
Is so good reading this! Thank you so much for providing us more information about your country, as I said before, I love learning about other cultures and to me this comment has definitely taught me something new that I didn’t know before and I’m sure many others reading the comments section will also learn from your comment. Trust me, after visiting Kars and Erzurum (we know that all of that region including Igdir, Ardahan, Van, and other provinces) were Armenian lands now I want to visit Armenia even more, I was always so curious and interested in their history and culture but after visiting Ani now I’m even more interested in going there, hopefully one day soon and also that way I can learn more about your rich culture.
@@BeryIstanbulTips you are so lovely!! "My land" is your land, we are all one big family - I hope there will be peace and love between us and we can all keep our identity, culture and history with love and respect for eachother. My culture is not better than yours, they are both beautiful and deserving of love and preservance. There should be more great people like you, you are the most valued guest that we could have, i hope you will have the best time in Armenia and only positive feelings. Im so glad you exist and I wish you all the best and succes in your life 🙏 unfortunately I dont live in Armenia, otherwise I would show you around and make sure you have the best possible trip in Armenia. Tell everyone who thinks like you that so many Armenian people are grateful that you exist and for they way you are ❤
