Thanks, I like this too, intriguing. I wouldn’t think that the castle/karavanserai is gone in the meantime. Turkye is rather serious with its history, tourism is important for them.

Dirk Van der Herten Posted March 19, 2023 Share #20647 Posted March 19, 2023 Advertisement (gone after registration) I understand the first photo of the village on the hilltop on the contact sheet appears in between Agzikarahan caravanseray and the cavedwellings. So the sequence on the sheet is 1 caravanseray - 2 hilltop village - 3 cavedwellings. Is that correct? Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dirk Van der Herten Posted March 19, 2023 Share #20648 Posted March 19, 2023 It looks you took the photo near Güzelyurt, 37 km from the caravanseray. The old Byzantine monastery, situated on a hilltop 3 km. from Güzelyurt, is known as Yüksek Kilise. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cavedwellings first, hilltop in between, caravanserai last. But we don’t know whether I toured in a circle on the motorcycle or straight. I went to the Taurus by bus. 15 hours ago, Dirk Van der Herten said: It looks you took the photo near Güzelyurt, 37 km from the caravanseray.

I just checked it and saw a photo of Güzelyurt (meaning ‘nice yurt’) which is very similar to mine, just taken from either the other side or just a higher position, or there were less houses in 1987.

I crossed the region, too, a long time ago, and it has indeed changed enormously. I remember that on the local busses they used to sprinkle the passengers frequently with rosewater. It was a rather wild region in those days. The dry plains around Tüz Gölu were almost completely deserted then. The next turn goes to someone else who would like to post something. Or perhaps you might have another go, Otto. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or perhaps you might have another go, Otto. Yes, the photo on internet is much too green to my taste and in what I remember. I think my photo was made from about the same perspective, but it could well be there was no water yet. I remember the rose water in the busses too, and how soon after departure they presented tea in the typical tulip formed glasses on the little metal saucers.

otto.f Posted March 21, 2023 Share #20653 Posted March 21, 2023 (edited) Here's a similar question. Does someone know what the title and whereabouts is of this waterfall? I forgot but I still have the roll of film and can give adjacent shots if needed. Same M4 but probably with the Elmar ii 90/4.0 Welcome, dear visitor!
