00:13
button for the algorithm and get ready to explore the 10 most bizarre wonders you can only find
00:19
right here in turkey all right first up is a place that looks like it was plucked straight
00:26
out of a dr seuss book tamakala imagine giant white cascading terraces filled with these crystal
00:32
clear turquoise pools these terraces are made of travertine formed over thousands of years by
00:38
mineral rich hot springs we spent the whole day exploring the terraces dipping our toes in the
00:44
warm water and just trying to wrap our heads around the fact that this place actually exists it's
00:50
seriously like stepping onto another planet and it's an absolute must see if you're ever in turkey
00:56
next up we're heading over to cappadocia which has to be one of the most surreal landscapes i've
01:04
ever seen in my life the region is famous for its unique rock formations and fairy chimneys that look
01:10
like they belong on another planet picture this you wake up at the crack of dawn stumble out of your
01:16
cave hotel which is literally carved into the rock and step outside to see hundreds of hot air balloons
01:22
rising up into the sky the site is nothing short of magical it's this crazy otherworldly landscape
01:29
filled with towering rock formations called fairy chimneys these natural wonders have been shaped by
01:34
thousands of years of erosion people used to live in these things creating entire communities within
01:40
the rock they carved out homes and churches in entire underground cities these ancient dwellings are a
01:46
testament to human ingenuity and adaptability we spent a few days exploring the caves hiking through the
01:51
valleys and discovering hidden gems around every corner and just generally feeling like we were on
01:57
the set of some epic fantasy movie the landscape is so dramatic and awe-inspiring the views from up
02:03
there were absolutely mind-blowing floating above this surreal landscape in a hot air balloon is an
02:08
experience you'll never forget
02:09
all right from the sky to something a little more grounded we're heading to kanya to witness the
02:18
whirling dervishes it's a deeply spiritual experience that's been practiced by the sufi muslims for
02:23
centuries these guys dressed in flowing white robes spin and spin their arms outstretched like
02:29
they're trying to embrace the heavens it's mesmerizing to watch like a human top that never
02:35
stops spinning it's a form of meditation a way to connect with the divine it's a powerful reminder
02:41
that sometimes the most amazing journeys are the ones that take you inward
02:44
chapter four gobekli tepe rewriting history one stone at a time we're going way way back to a time
02:54
before the pyramids before stonehenge even before pottery to a place called gobekli tepe this place
03:01
is basically an archaeological time machine dating back to the 10th millennium bce that's over 12 000 years
03:07
old these guys built massive t-shaped pillars some weighing up to 20 tons decorated with intricate
03:13
carvings of animals and abstract symbols gobekli tepe is a powerful reminder that we're still
03:18
uncovering the secrets of our past and that history is full of surprises
03:22
chapter 5 turkish baths scrub soap and serenity after all that history it's time for a little relaxation
03:32
turkish style you lie down on this warm marble slab and then these dudes come in and start scrubbing
03:38
you down with these rough mitts they scrub away all your dead skin then cover you in soap suds and
03:43
douse you with buckets of warm water you walk out of there feeling like a brand new human being
03:48
it's the perfect way to unwind after a long day of exploring and it's definitely a unique cultural
03:53
experience you won't want to miss chapter 6 the blue mosque a symphony in blue next up we're heading
04:02
to istanbul the heart of turkey to visit the iconic blue mosque the sheer scale of it is mind-blowing
04:08
with six towering minarets piercing the sky the inside is like stepping into a giant jewel box with
04:14
walls covered in thousands of intricate blue tiles the sunlight streams through the stained glass windows
04:20
casting kaleidoscopic patterns across the floor whether you're an architecture buff or just
04:25
someone who appreciates beauty the blue mosque is an absolute must see
04:29
okay remember those fairy chimneys we talked about earlier well it turns out there's more to them than
04:37
meets the eye beneath the surface of cappadocia lies a hidden world a network of underground cities that
04:43
once housed thousands of people exploring these underground labyrinths is like stepping back in time
04:49
with remnants of their daily lives still visible it's a fascinating glimpse into the ingenuity and
04:55
resilience of the people who lived here centuries ago
04:58
chapter 8 from underground cities to mountaintop temples our next stop takes us to mount nemrit
05:06
home to one of the most bizarre and awe-inspiring archaeological sites in all of turkey this remote and rugged
05:13
location is not just a testament to ancient engineering but also a symbol of the cultural and religious
05:18
fusion that characterized the region this ancient sanctuary was built by king antiochus the first
05:24
in the first century bc as a monument to himself and the gods antiochus sought to create a lasting legacy
05:30
lending greek persian and armenian influences into a unique cultural and religious statement the statues are
05:37
colossal some reaching heights of 30 feet once standing guard over the tomb of the king these stone giants
05:44
represent various gods and the king himself each meticulously carved to convey power and divinity
05:50
over the centuries earthquakes and the elements have taken their toll leaving the statues headless and
05:55
toppled despite this the site remains a powerful reminder of the impermanence of human endeavors and
06:01
the relentless passage of time standing on that mountaintop surrounded by these giant stone guardians
06:07
you can't help but feel a sense of awe at the ambition and artistry of the people who built this place
06:13
the sheer scale and grandeur of mount nemrut offer a glimpse into the minds of ancient civilizations
06:19
their beliefs and their desire to be remembered for eternity
06:26

06:48
flower derived from the tubers of wild orchids which gives it that distinctive stretchiness the preparation
06:54
of don derma is an art in itself vendors use salep and mastic a resin to create this delightful dessert the
07:02
process is fascinating to watch as the ingredients are mixed and churned to perfection the ice cream
07:08
vendors are like masters of ceremonies using their long metal scoops to tease and tantalize customers
07:14
they perform tricks flipping and twirling the ice cream making it an interactive experience it's all part
07:20
of the fun and it's guaranteed to put a smile on your face the vendors playful antics and the delicious
