Entry from: Cappadocia, Turkey Entry Title: “Cave in” Entry: “We travelled over night from Istanbul to Cappadocia. The bus journey was a bit **** the bottom – while bus travel in Turkey is big business we nust have got the worst bus. Cappadocia is an area of sensor assault. The area is is known for 100′s of year of people living in caves – and they still do. We stayed in an up market version of what has for years been accomodation for people. The oginal vast cave networks including complete underground cities were build by early christians as a place of escape from invading armies. The room we stayed in at Cappadocia had been carved out of the hillside. The walls are solid rough volcanic stone. If you rub it with your hand very course sand will come off.

Turkey, ‘The Land Beneath the Half Moon’. We begin our journey in Istanbul, golden gateway to the Orient, a city that was once the centre of the Old World and still reflects two and a half centuries of history. On the opposite side of the Galata Bridge on the banks of the Golden Horn is the Yeni Cami Mosque with a large number of domes and minarets built one on top of the other plus a number of precious glass windows. The Grand Basare is a city within a city. Through a large gate there is a labyrinth of corridors that were built over many centuries. The enclosed market contains more than four thousand shops within its seemingly endless halls and it is possible to buy almost anything here. A vivid world full of the aromas of the orient. Near to the west coast of Turkey situated between Troy and Ephesos is one of the most famous and well preserved ancient cities of this region, Pergamon. This, in the Hellenic era, was an ancient cosmopolitan city the traces of which are still visible today. Marmaris is situated on the Turkish Riviera and was once well protected by a mediaeval fortress. In 1522 Sultan Suleyman The Splendid enlarged the small castle of the former Roman rulers as he wished to conquer the island of Rhodes. Ankara is the capital of the Republic of Turkey and this once Anatolian provincial backwater is today one of the country’s most modern cities and is a vibrant world metropolis.

Question: What do Koreans think about Turkey and Turkish people?
I heard Koreans like Turks.Is it true? Furthermore I read a lot of comments that Koreans are racist and don’t want to speak English. I want to go Korea because of that i’m afraid how they treat to me, especially if i don’t know their language without a few sentences. So being Turkish can affect their behaviors against me?
Thanks
Answer:
Answer by Sandy K
um well as far as i know they don’t have anything against Turkish people and typically the “racist” and the “ones who don’t want to speak English” are generally the older generations. All the newer generations of Koreans aren’t like that

Question: How many ethnic Turkish people were living in Cyprus just prior to the mid ’70′s invasion by Turkey ?
And how important is it that Northern Crypus is seen as more a part of Cyprus than part of Turkey ?
What I meant was that Northern Cyprus, after it was invaded bt Turkey could have become part of Turkey.But I think that Turkey was sure that by making it a soverign state separate from Turkey it made Turkey out as liberators of the Turkish population of the island, not conquerors.
Answer:
Answer by bLazE
First question,
Turkish population on the island
in year 1960: 104.350
in year 1977: 145.000 (this is 3 years after Turkish invasion of northern Cyprus)
in year 2007: 268.011 (includes 47,601 people with work permits and (around) 29,000 students that are not Cyprus citizens)
Your second question;
I can’t really say that i understand what you’re asking here.. Northern Cyprus is NOT a part of Turkey. Republic of Turkey recognizes it as a sovereign country with the name “Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus” which is a de facto state recognized only by Turkey. So Northern Cyprus is a part of Cyprus and not Turkey.
Modern genetic shows that some turkish people have mongoloid dna. Some of these so called turkish are mixed asian but great majority are not.
