⛴️Halfeti Batık Kent

In the afternoon, we visited Halfeti, the famous "sunken city" on the Euphrates River. Part of the old town was flooded after the construction of the Birecik Dam. This created a unique landscape where historic buildings emerge partially from the water. The partially submerged minaret is one of Halfeti's most famous landmarks. A boat trip on the Euphrates offered spectacular views of the surroundings. The peaceful atmosphere made the place especially captivating. Halfeti combines history, nature, and modern development in a remarkable way. During our visit, we learned more about the region and the impact of the dam project. The scenery provided countless photographic opportunities. It was an unforgettable experience.
