  • Our last stop is Birgi, an old village in the mountains in the province of İzmir. It's supposed to be the most beautiful old Turkish village that exists. I don't agree. It's cute and absolutely worth the visit but Dogan Bey was way better.
    But! That village was originally build by Greek so it will never be called Turkish.
    Join me while I explore Birgi
    Birgi is a neighborhood in the municipality and district of Ödemiş, İzmir Province, Turkey. Its population is 1,832. Before the 2013 reorganization, it was a town. Its current name is a corruption of its medieval Greek name, Pyrgion.

      Ellis, thank you for your response ! I appreciate it ! You are the only RUclipsr in turkey that I feel as though does traveling in turkey justice. You give us a real perspective as to what it’s like historically and culturally/ no fluff/ great content/ an excellent road map for future travels. We have a lot of loose ends to take care of before spring 2025 and will hopefully be able to emulate your experience’s upon arrival. Thank you again for all of your hard work !!!!!! K Okla

    Çok güzel bir gezi olmuş .Fakat Yunanlılar değil,Anadolu beylikleri döneminde Selçuklular tarafından bir dönem başkent olarak kullanılmış ve evler o dönem Anadolu ve sonrası Osmanlı stili denen evlerdir.

    What? You went to Birgi but didn't visit Çakıroğlu Mansion, a great historic house museum, or Aydınoğlu Mehmet Bey Mosque with beautiful tiles and woodwork inside? I gather you were in a rush because Timo needed a walk, but those two alone are worthy of a return visit.

    • @AtHomeInTurkey
      @AtHomeInTurkey  9 месяцев назад

      Oh. I did not know about the house museum. I will write it down If I ever go back I will check it out. Mosques and churches I usually do not visit, sorry

      @@AtHomeInTurkey I'm irreligious and I don't like preachers, sermons, and whatnot. Not at all. However, I can't find a good excuse to exclude myself from whatever artistic expressions these buildings have to offer. To me, visiting a mosque or a church is no different from visiting an ancient temple with marble columns. After all they are all precious parts of my cultural heritage - and of all humanity as far as I'm concerned. Proudly.
      Of course, I can't know your motivation behind avoiding churches and mosques, but that's my take on it. Nevertheless, this is a deeply personal matter, and you are very welcome to not reply to this comment if you so choose.
