Breakfast in Şanlıurfa

 For a traditional start to the day, we recommend you to eat liver for breakfast. Although this recommendation may sound strange at first, if you enjoy eating meat, you will think why you haven't had this experience before.

Historical Places of Şanlıurfa

Seeing Halfeti, whose history dates back to 855 BC, is the first step to be taken to get to know the city fully. One of the oldest settlements of Mesopotamia, this place is the only place in Turkey where black roses are grown. Halfeti, which succeeded in carrying the traces of the civilizations it has hosted to today, promises you unforgettable hours with its impressive atmosphere. Resembling a fairytale land, Halfeti is 121 km from Şanlıurfa center.

Your next stop after Halfeti should be Savaşan Village with its plied stone houses, narrow streets with cobblestone floors and unique architecture. Approximately 23 km from Halfeti, the village is in the focus of increasing attention with its charming atmosphere. An interesting structure awaits you in Savaşan Village, where you will feel that you are traveling in time while walking on its streets. The village mosque, whose body is submerged underwater, is a historical building definitely worth seeing. Since you have to come to Halfeti first to see Savaşan and also cross the river by renting a boat, a pleasant boat trip is also a part of your Urfa trip.

You can start exploring the city center from Sipahi Bazaar, also known as carpet rug makers' market. The Bazaar, which is a narrow inn, is a great stopover with its coolness in the baking hot summer months, as it was built of nahit stone. Therefore, the inn gets very crowded at noon. You can enjoy shopping for souvenirs from the inn where there are about 30 shops. After the Sipahi Bazaar, you can visit the Gümrük Inn right next to it and have a coffee break in the historical atmosphere of the inn.

Balıklıgöl is one of the must-see places for those who come to Şanlıurfa. The lake, which was blessed with the story of Abraham who is believed to be born in Urfa, impresses its visitors at the first sight. Consulting the guiding children to understand Balıklıgöl properly can be a great way to continue your trip with pleasant and thought-provoking stories.

One of Turkey's largest museums, Archeology and Mosaic Museum, should be the last stop in the city center. Locals of Urfa agree that the mosaic depicting Amazon women must be seen.
