Four wide streets parallel to each other in the east-west direction intersect at right angles with a street in the north-south direction. In accordance with the position of the land, the streets and streets are sometimes stair-clad, sometimes vertically. To the west of the first street in north-south direction is the agora. In the following ages, a large church was built on both sides of the Agora in the north of the military harbor, using ancient stone.

Towards the north, the Temple of Apollo Karneisos, which the towns connected to Dor Hexaopisi have organized a festival every four years, is reached. An excavated rectangular altar was found in the excavations to the north of the temple in Doric style. Behind the terraces where the sun sets, another terrace is an example of Hellenistic wall work. In 1972, a temple remnant was found in the area where the steps reminiscent of the living steps were also found.

During this period, Knidos was one of the major wine exporting centers.

However, there is not much information about this period. In the battle between the Roman Empire and the Seleucid Kingdom, they took part in the kingdom of Pergamon, which had been held by Rome. The houses of the parliament were used as house rooms. During the Byzantine era, Kent became a dilapidated settlement during the Byzantine Empire. In the later periods of Byzantine, the city was destroyed by earthquakes and pirate attacks on the other side and was completely abandoned in the 7th century AD. the population of the peninsula has gone down to a thousand. In the 13th century, the mansion houses were connected to the Menteşe Emirate. In the 15th century it joined the borders of the Ottoman Empire and its name became Datça. In the period of Sultan Reşat, the Datça name was Reşadiye from the Ottoman sultans, and Datça was transformed together with the Republic. In 1928, the first center of Datça was the Reşadiye Quarter, and in 1947 it was moved to Iskele Quarter, which is today's place. The Datça Peninsula is still referred to as the "Reşadiye Peninsula" in some mappings. The first excavations were carried out by Charles Newton from 1856 to 1858 to illuminate the history of Kınidos.

Alaçatı

Alaçatı, which is about an hour away from Izmir, is the ideal route for relaxing, having fun, and enjoying delicious aegean delicacies. For first-time visitors there are many places to explore in Alaçatı and a traditional summer pleasure for regulars. Almost every airline company in our country is flying more than once a day to Izmir. To enjoy Alaçatı on any of your weekend or holiday festivals this summer, you need to get plane tickets to Izmir and be lost in the streets before you need to do.



Alaçatı Boutique Hotel, Exquisite Beaches, Food and More ...
We will be staying at the boutique hotel named Incir House this summer. I would especially like to mention the hotel because in Alaçatı the hotel decoration is too much and it is not easy to decide. Even if Alaçatı hotels are mentioned, first of all, boutique hotels come to mind, but it is also beneficial to look at the hostels which are more suitable alternatives. We did not know what we were going to face, and we made a reservation to fig house and we were very satisfied. We wanted holidays and summer never to finish. Especially in a damp, hot and transportation-like city like Istanbul, he felt in heaven to escape even for a few days. Staying in the Alaçatı center for families with children is crowded in the evening and may be a problem due to the sound, so it is a better idea to stay in the hotels located between the streets.


What will be done for the weekend in Alacati? In the morning you get up and go out for a nice Aegean breakfast - especially if you do not have breakfast at the hotel - I highly recommend Orta Kahve. The coffee in the Sailiors Hotel is right in the middle of Alacati and can be filled every hour of the day. You can see breakfast in the morning, tea in the evening and everything from Alaçatı to the night. We were staying at the hotel a few years ago and we were very pleased.

After breakfast you can go to plaja and get sunbathing yada surf lessons. Especially for those who want to learn wind surfing, Alacati is the right address. We have already mentioned what you were curious about about wind surfing, which is itself a writing topic, and if you are interested, you will enjoy from afar. I do not have any curiosity about surfing, Okan's Beach, Ramo, Aya Babylon in Yorgi, Alaçatı Beach is my favorite beaches.


alacate also windsurf

After the beach, you should march in the village in the evening. Pre-dinner jammed Turkish coffee is indispensable, known as the opposite collar is used in many places as much as the Chios island and the custard of the pudding. I love İmren Patisserie very much; gummy pudding, cookies, and freshly-made sweets are very nice.




Try to try each of the olive oils first as far as it is here; you will not find these world famous Aegean flavors elsewhere!

It is the address you seek for peace, pleasure, fun, and Alaçatı to get away from the stress of the big city.

9 reasons to go to Gökçeada

9 reasons to go to Gökçeada

As for Gökçeada, everybody comes from Greek villagers, deep-fried coffee and wonderful owners. This is the known tourist side of Gökçeada. However, those who spend a few days in the island and start exploring, will start to see a different island. That's when the island will look really nice and interesting. Here are 10 reasons to go to this island ...

GÖKÇEADA the MOUNDS

There are about 10 mounds of different periods in the island, the old settlement. The past of the island BC It's going up to 7000. The new Bademli mound was dated to the Bronze Age 5000 years ago. In Uğurlu höyüğü (mound) approximately 7000 years ago, was down. When the excavations by Trakya University are over, quite interesting results about the history of the island will be obtained.


DAY STAY IN YILDIZ KOYU (star beach) AND TEPEKÖY

The sun in Gökçeada is sunk in the most beautiful bay of stars and the place where the monument tree is in Tepeköy. In both places, the background is Samadirek Island. When you go to the island,
sink in here.





MARMAROS CHELLES

In Gökçeada, even in the summer months, the streams of rivers flow. Especially the forest in Marmaros is magnificent. Marmaros Waterfall is like a star whose path is unfortunately not well known to the islands. The waterfall poured from about 40 meters is almost miraculous for an island.


GEOLOGICAL STRUCTURE OF GÖKÇEADA

Gökçeada has interesting geological formations. Fossils found in rocks in many parts of the island add a different flavor to the island. In addition, the fossilized trees at one point are another geological richness of the island. After the work started by Istanbul University, visitors will come to the island not only in summer but in all seasons.

SUSPECTED DISPOSABLE AND BALANCED COFFEE

In Gökçeada, in Zeytinli Village, I suggest you absolutely gummy pudding yemen. Unfortunately, the tastes of those in the center are not so beautiful. I especially recommend Barba Hristo. Badly cookie is the most popular product of the island. An Efi name was given to make the memory of Efterpi Zguromali (Efi), made from butter, flour and almond, and cooked in the mouth with cookies, cookies. You can find the cookies that become the brand of Gökçeada in the center of the square in the pastry shop.

ORGANIC FARMING

Gökçeada'da especially around Şirinköy, Eşelek and Ugurlu in recent years there is an intensive organic farming mobilization. Those who go to Gökçeada are going to fill their baggage with a wide range of products from domestically to waterpipe.

NATURAL COMPOUNDS

As a result of the erosion of the sandstones in Yıldız Bay by sea water and bacteria, incredible beautiful stone sculptures emerged. Also, the rock layers in Yıldız Bay
natural monuments that must be seen.

SURFING

Gokceada is famous for its windy weather. This feature turned into a frisbee about 10 years ago. In both Güzelce Bay and Kefalos, both windsurfing and kite surfing have begun. The winds in these two regions are incredibly convenient for surfing. It is possible to take Surf courses from many places in Kefalos. You can study very well in the surf schools, which are mostly led by Bulgarians and Romanians.

SALT LAKE SLUDGE

The lake, separated by a sand bar from the sea, turns into a salt-covered area completely dry in arid seasons. For this reason, the mud on the shore of the lake, which has taken its name from the Salt Lake, has become an important material for holidaymakers to use for skin beauty. You're amazed to see people walking around in the black mud on Kefalos coast.
