Şanlıurfa is hailed as the cradle of civilization and the birthplace of religion, drawing increasing numbers of people each day. This tour provides you with the opportunity to explore the most significant and historical sites of Şanlıurfa.
King Manu IX of Edessa commissioned the construction of two Corinth-style monumental columns atop the Castle in 240-242 AD. The locals in Urfa believe these columns are the legendary catapult mentioned in the story of Prophet Abraham. In Karahan Tepe, an archaeological site near Göbekli Tepe, you'll see T-shaped stelae and 250 animal figure obelisks. You'll also visit Harran, known for its beehive houses, where Prophet Abraham resided before moving to Israel. There are exceptional photo opportunities in this area. After Harran you'll be driven to the airport to fly back to Istanbul.
You won't need to worry about a thing – all reservations, planning, and satisfaction are taken care of. This Turkish region resembles a vibrant rainbow with its traditional lifestyle and diverse culture. You also have the option to customize your program and immerse yourself to the maximum.
