Troy (Truva) South of Canakkale

This picture is taken in Troy,I felt that the site was moving and trying my best to imagine the Greek and Trojan armies in battle here with 5000 years of rich history. Saw piles and piles of earth and stone.

Next Pergamon ... City of Alexander The Great.

I know it is so sunny yet so cold when the wind blows. Observe the beautiful arches still seen today.

Istanbul to Canakkale

Firstly, our flight to Istanbul was delayed 4 hrs. We flew with Turkish Airline and we didnot enjoy the delay and the service. 

After 11 hrs of flight, we landed in Istanbul. So many orang and different. My tour guide is Otak.

Makan time was so so .

Tak sedap the chicken. 

The bus ride to Canakkale was scenic . I saw the Gallipoli Peninsula where a battle was held during WW1 among all nations including Turkey. Now, the place is known as Gelibolu. We took a ferry ride across it to Lapseki. 

A vendor selling pistachio in Gallipoli.I told myself it had been a long day and i had not shower for more than 25 hours.

The beautiful Sea of Marmara. So blue.

The first night we stayed in Tusan Hotel. The view from the restaurant calmed my soul, no doubt i have not showered.

Holidaying again 2013

Well, its time again to take a trip with my 3 sisters. This time to Turkey. I do not know what to expect but I was told many things from this person and even my doctor gave a few words .I nodded and braced myself.

The most beautiful sight anyone noticed are all the rows and rows of roses. My sisters and I were happy.

They grew everywhere from yellow, white and red ones.

Poppy flowers also seen all over the fields stretching for miles and miles.

These beautiful sights were taken at a rest stop area.

I was happy and excited to see all different types of flowers.
