Kusadasi, The Bird's Nest

The name Kusadasi means "the bird's nest." It is the center of activity on this part of the Turkish coastline. Missing the political turmoil of Istanbul and Ankara, Kusadasi has its own quiet take on Turkish culture. We had an excellent Turkish lunch, complete with folk dancers and very entertaining musicians. The city is a wonderful venue for shopping and just hanging out. We were given a tour of a local rug merchant's shop with a demonstration of rug manufacturing.Baca lagi
