SUMELA MONASTORY


This is a wonderful building where is in hillside of a mountain in Trabzon-Turkey. This is an ancient architecture which is very old. It is very hard to guess how people constructed this monastory in AC 345. It is very impressive so it can captured thousand of people’s attention from all over the world. Also it is very imposing and magnificent building. We can see traditional Byzantium themes in this building. Now it is a bit dilapidated and it must be restored.

Building

My favourite building is the Topkapı Palace. It is one of the ottoman's best-known places and it captures the atmosphere of Ottoman Empire for me. It looks so elegant and graceful in Eminönü. It was built in 1478. It is an incredibly impressive building. A lot of tourist come to this palace to see Ottoman Empires life and when you go there you feel the atmosphere.

TOPKAPI PALACE


I always visit Topkapi Palace. It’s magnificent palace. It’s one of the Turkey’s best known architecture and it captures my attention. Topkapı Palace constructed by Fatih Sultan Mehmet, (the Conqueror) in 1478 has been the official residence of the Otoman Sultans and center of State Administration around 380 years until the construction of Dolmabahçe Palace by Sultan Abdülmecid. In Topkapi Palace there is a famous diamond which calls “ Kasikci Diomond”. It is saved there and every year too many tourists visit there to see that. At the same time this palace is very important example for Empire of Osmanlı’s architecture and give many secret’s of culture and life style about years and years ago. In there, sacred things, which belongs Islam religion, are saved. Palace has ornate design. This architecture also restored every yeare and continue to be graceful.

It is very stylish and innovative. Kız Kulesi (Leander's Tower) is one of the example of ancient architecture. It was built with traditional style. In addition, also it is very elegant and graceful.

I had seen this impressive graveyard in Dalyan while I was on holiday. We were in boat on Dalyan's lake. In fact, this graveyard is in the mountain. It had been built in the mountain with a very different way. I can't say that it is ornate, because it is very old and dilapidated. Perhaps, some people may think it is not elegant. However, this graveyard is graceful in my opinion. Maybe, ancient places are more magnificent for me. It can not be restored, because it is very difficult to maintain. However, this does not mean it looks ugly.

Bosphorus bridge is one of the two bridges in Turkey, Istanbul which is connecting Europe and Asia. It was very innovative at that time to decrease the traffic and it had been constructed by Japanese for 3 years. It is an impressive building because of its magnificent and imposing view. And also it is so elegant and graceful. It is 1,510 m and the clearance of the bridge from sea level is 64 m. Nowadays, you can see the workers who are maintaining for earthquakes. Almost every year the government commission for some companies to keep it in good condition. It used to look rather run-down for government, because of that reason, they decided to renovate it.

ANITKABİR



Anıtkabir is the mausoleum of Atatürk, who is the leader of Turkish Independence War and revolution. ( "Anıt" means monumental and "kabir" means grave.) It is located on a hill named Anıttepe in Ankara capital city of Turkey. When Ataturk died, Turkish people wanted to show how they loved him by building a monumental grave. It is a magnificant and complex building in classic-modern style. Also, there are some museums inwhich Ataturk's belongings are displayed to visitors. Anıtkabir has a tremendous atmosphere especially in national festivals. Millions of people visit Anıtkabir and show their respect to the greatest leader. According to the website of Anıtkabir, about 13 million people visited Anıtkabir in 2007. I have visited there twice, too.

GALATA TOWER


  

GALATA TOWER

 

       

 

Galata Tower, which is my favorite place, is a very nice place in Istanbul.  It is very impressive and magnificent.  It was constructed in 14th century so that the government which was Ottoman Empire could see the whole city for fires.

 

Therefore, it was a very innovative design and in contemporary world, it is still very stylish and innovative.  Many people go there even though going there and moving up of its highest altitude are very expensive.  Consequently, it is very graceful and elegant place.  Also, you can see the whole city from the top of the Galata Tower.

Lake Manyas





Lake Manyas...

Lake Manyas is a lake in eastern Turkey. It is constructed in the Balıkesir. This is a shallow
nutrient-rich freshwater lake. Average depth of it is 3 m. However, it can change according to the season. It is fed by groundwater and four streams.Also, there are small deltas.
Water is abstracted for factory use and for irrigation. Cattle and sheep grazing is common along the lake shores. Moreover, it is unique because it's the best graceful landscape. It is really important for the Turkish tourism. It is attractive. I mean; It attracts many native and foreign tourists. In March, all the birds go there and stay on the trees. This view is exactly magnificent that you should see. Furthermore, it was just a bird park, but now it is a national park. Between March-July, you can see over 200 kinds of birds. Nothing can damage this impressive view,it maintains as it is just one year old.

Silvermoon ( WoW )





I want to talk about a cyber city from a video game called World of Warcraft. This city belongs to Blood Elves and called Silvermoon. The architecture of Silvermoon is really impressive. You can see stylish buildings and traditional buildings everywhere. Actually the most part of silvermoon has an ancient and stylish design. We can't compare Silvermoon to real ancient civilizations, because it includes innovative , traditional and classical buildings together. We can say that Silvermoon is a mix of all architecture types. Near the silvermoon we can see the Old Silvermoon , which had been demolished after World War of Warcraft. We can say that Ruins of Silvermoon is a derelict. In Brief when you are in Silvermoon you can feel the mysterious of this utopian city and the spirits of the ancients...

My 3 Summaries of Listenings from NPR!

I listened to “Traffic Accidents Top Cause Of Fatal Children Injuries”. It is about the problems that cause to make children die and according to the text, The World Health Organization shows that the most dangerous reason is a car on the road because the crashes kill 1 million children every year in the world. The publical huge problem is the children who survive have 8, 9 injuries which make them lead death. 840,000 children die evry year and this the same quantity of child and adolescent population of Chicago. The main problem is real traffic accidents. In Africa, which has the highest rate of fatalities, most children die while they are walking alone. In Asia, 3, 4, 5 people travel on 1 motorcycle. Also, unexperienced drivers dramatically reduce injuries. In developing countries, there is no seperation between the pedestrians and the traffic roads in many places, so many children are killed by cars. The safest truth from Sweden is that if a car is driven more than 35 km /an hour, children can be died more. At the end of the text, WHO recommends to promote funding about preventing childhood injuries for international projects for highway consruction and health development.

I listened to “Zoo Elephants Live A Shortened Life, Study Finds” and it is a debate between researchers. Some elphants which live in zoos live shorter than the elephants which are in wild life in some continents because of the bad quality of zoos. Some elephants are dying really early. For example, half of the elephants die by the age of 19 in European zoos. Also, Asian elephants in zoos live 44.8 years and Asian elephants in the wild life live 45 years as average. These are almost same number. To sum up, animals in some zoos live longer, but others not, and some changes in zoos can contribute to make animals live a long and healthy life.
