Where to Visit in Sicily? - Scala dei Turchi

Scala dei Turchi is one of the best places I have been luckily discover in Sicily...

Scala dei Turchi is an italian word and it means "Stair of the Turks"... The place reminds us Pamukkale where is located in Turkey...

Why is the name of this place "Scala dei Turchi"? While we arguing this question, we learned that the story based on history of Turkish Pirates...

In history, Turkish Pirates used this stairs when invaded the city, so the Sicilian people named this place as a Scala dei Turchi...

As a result, the name of this beautiful place started to be called Turkish Stairs...

The legend is not exactly known but we definitely recommend to visit Scala dei Turchi...

The Flag of Sicily

The flag of Sicily compose of three legs and one face in center. Three legs represent corners of the island and the face belongs to Medusa... There are two main color in the flag... The red color represent Palermo and yellow color is for Corleone town...

The flag has been started to use officially in all offical places on 4 January 2000...

Iran and The Doors

In fact, it is possible to see these doors almost everywhere in Anatolia, Turkey but we explain that under the Iran title...

The door has characterized 2 knobs, one of these is large and the other small... The knobs have a different voices when someone uses them...

Big one is for men's use and the other one (small knob) is for women and so the people who lives in home understand which gender comes...

Lake Eymir, Ankara

One of the best places where you can spend your time in Ankara is Eymir Lake...

What to do in Eymir Lake?

The circumference of the lake is about 13 km and it is covered by asphalt road. You can ride a bike or jog on this road and enjoy the fresh air. If you are tired after these activities, you can eat delicious pancake and grilled fish sandwich while watchning the lake... Bon Appetit...

It's possible to catch fish and have barbecue but don't forget to take precautions against fires...

One of the most popular activities in Lake Eymir is riding bicycle , but bicycle rental prices are officially robbery. After giving the last 10 Turkish Liras per day in Izmir, these prices were very high...

We recommend that going to the lake early. There is also an incredible population of bees around the lake, beware!

All About Serbia

I have been completed the 4 day Belgrade Tour and in this text you can find a little bit information about Serbia...

Let's start with the most curious and most asked question :) Are Serbian girls beautiful? If you like white-skinned girls, yes, serbian girls are really nice and almost all are thin and well-groomed...

The country is not super cheap, but it is not too expensive, you can make a nice trip with the little budget...

The serbian people is really hosbitable, you can ask them what you want in emergency situiaons...

The number of English speakers is quite high, almost everyone tried to speak in English...

Drink prices are cheap, but they don't drink like crazy.

There is no security problem, you can walk around until late hours...

The signs and street names in central places are written in the Latin alphabet, but you can not understand what you write when you go out of city center...

They are proud of Nikola Tesla, you can see his name on the pictures and his airport... You should go to the museum...

Belgrade is an easy city to visit ... If you are staying in the center and you like to walk, you can reach everywhere by walking... If you like Zemun, public transport is needed...

Finally, I think everybody loves dogs ... If you are afraid of a dog or something, think again...

Where to Stay in Belgrade

There are too many hostels in the Belgrade City Center for backpacker traveler but I definitely recommend Hostel Hedonist...

I made a reservation on Hostelworld.com before going to Belgrade... If you make a reservation through this site, 10% of the fee will be cut before you go... I definitely recommend to make reservation because in passport control you must submit your place where to stay...

The Hostel Hedonist is located in city center... It is next to Knez Mihailova, the most important street of the city. It is very close to all the central places... In addition, you can reach easily from the airport by public transport...

The hostel is about 10 euro per night... Locker and internet is inclusive in the price... The staff is so hospitable...

The most important issue for us is cleaning of place and we have not encountered any negative situation...

We definitely recommend Hostel Hedonist in Belgrade...

Money Collection From All Over The World

When I buy something for souvenirs from countries i visited, it is definitely paper or coins from that country and of course I expect something like this as a gift... At now we have a small fortune and this is getting bigger and bigger :) You are feeling again the country you visited when you look at the money or coins...

I would also recommend to you... Colorful money from all over the world ...

Have a nice trip...

Capuchin Monastery Catacombs, Palermo

One of the places where death is most deeply felt in Sicily, is the Capuchin Monastery...

The structure is not different from a normal church, you can find the death house when you walk around Palermo...

We bought the tickets after we decided to go inside with some fear and starting to travel to the world of the dead...

The mummies are located on the lower floor of the church. After passing through the low corridor, the most interesting landscape you can see in the world is welcoming you...

2,000 dead in their coffins say hello to us in their eternal sleeping... 

The inside is pretty cool, the sunlight almost never enters. As we continue our journey in the corridors, we meet hundreds of different people in different clothes and at different ages...

Being so close to death that we try to escape always is very influential...

The thing that awaits us is a lot of confusion when we follow the road... This is a girl's body that is mummified at 2 years old and never intact... It is not possible to be affected...

Finally we secretly take a few photos and go back to our life...

Nikola Tesla-Belgrade Airport

Nikola Tesla Airport is a modern airport according to serbian standards... As you know, Nikola Tesla was the great serbian scientist who invented alternative current...

The airport is open 24 hours and passengers can be spend time in there before their flight... It is unfortunately not possible to say that it is very comfortable for sleeping, especially nights can be cold even in August... It is highly recommended to buy a sleeping bag or mattress...

There is a wi-fi service at the airport and you can easily enter the internet...

I didn't pass through any x-ray device while passing through the passport control and I didn't see any policeman or anyone else...

There is an exchange office at the airport but it turned off at night.  You can find automatic machines for emergency situations...

It is easy to go to the city center from the airport... You can take the 72 number buses to arrive the center...

In addition, I would recommend a site about airports... The site is Sleeping in Airports... There are general information about the airports around the world and comments from users...
