    The obligatory stop at a shop. This one was a jewelry place. Everything from gold to silver and diamonds, rubies, onyx and amethyst. But the unique offerings here are a semi precious stone called Zultanite found only in Turkey and the local Turquoise which is bluer. Zultanite is only mined in the mountains of Turkey and it changes colour depending on the colour of the light it's in - green outdoor, pink under incandescent light etc.

    The items sold here are pretty and the styles is delicate and artistic.
