Şanlıurfa

Über Şanlıurfa

The city of prophets, Şanlıurfa carries humanity’s oldest traces. The 12,000-year-old Göbeklitepe is the world’s oldest known temple and UNESCO-listed; the sacred Balıklıgöl pools, the historic bazaars and the half-sunken village of Halfeti are all worth seeing, while Harran’s beehive houses are unique. Çiğköfte, Urfa kebab and the smoky isot pepper are its world-famous flavours.
