]]> Located at the crossroads between East and West, Turkey is home to a wonderful array of historical influences. This ancient homeland has monuments ranging across thousands of years of human political and religious history.

Here are 4 inspiring sites that should be on every cultural tourist’s bucket list.

Ephesus

Hattusha

Another UNESCO World Heritage Site, Hattusha was the capital city of the Hittite Empire. Founded in 1600 BC and destroyed after 1200 BC, this ruin has stood for millennia. You can now walk around its sprawling underground passages and royal homes.

☀ Hattuşa, 1834 yılında Charles Texier tarafından keşfedilmiş ancak bulunan antik şehrin Hitit başkenti Hattuşa olduğu 1906’da yapılan araştırmalarla ortaya çıkmış. 📜 İstanbul Arkeoloji Müzesi’nin yaptığı çalışmalarda, Mısır Firavunu II. Ramses ve Hitit Kralı III. Hattuşili arasındaki mektupların çevrilmesiyle, bu şehrin Hattuşa olduğu kesinleşmiş. 🏛🦁 İlk fotoğraftaki Hattuşa’daki Sfenksli Kapı. Bu iki sfenks, 1907’de yapılan kazılarda bulunmuş. Onarım için 1917’de Berlin’e gönderilmiş. Sağdaki sfenks 1924’de İstanbul Arkeoloji Müzesi’ne iade edilmiş, diğer sfenksi ise 2011’de Berlin’den geri almayı başarmışız. 2011’de hem İstanbul’daki, hem Berlin’deki sfenks sonunda ait olduğu yere, Hattuşa’ya geri getirilmiş. Şu an Hattuşa’daki Sfenksli Kapı’da duranlar bire bir replikası. Sfenkslerin orjinalleri ise tüm ihtişamı ile Boğazköy Müzesi’nde. 📚 Hititler hakkında daha fazla bilgi için Muazzez İlmiye Çığ’ın “Hititler ve Hattuşa – İştar’ın Kaleminden” kitabını ve Uranüs yayınlarının “Hitit Uygarlığı İzinde Anadolu” kitabını okumanızı tavsiye ederiz. Bizim için harika rehber oldular. 👫🗺🚙🏛 Hititlerin izlerini Çorum’dan başlayıp Ankara’ya kadar takip ettik. Hattuşa, Yazılıkaya, Boğazkale Müzesi, Alacahöyük, Alacahöyük Müzesi, Çorum Arkeoloji Müzesi ve son olarak Ankara, Anadolu Medeniyetleri Müzesi’nde Hitit Uygarlığı’ndan kalan eserleri gördük. 🏰 Anadolu topraklarında kurulan ilk devlet; Hititler. MÖ 2000 yıllarında Anadolu’ya geldiklerinde, Anadolu’da Asur Ticaret Kolonileri ve Hattiler yaşıyormuş. 🏞 Hititler Anadolu’ya gelip Hatti uygarlığı ile bütünleşince Kızılırmak’ın doğusunda çok gelişmiş bir hukuk sistemi ile devletlerini kurmuşlar.♟Hititler ve Mısırlılar dönemin iki süper gücü. Hitit Uygarlığı MÖ 1190’lara kadar Uygarlıklar Ülkesi olarak yükselişini sürdürürken, sonrasında Batı’dan gelen barbar saldırılarla dağılmış. Ülkesini terk etmek zorunda kalan Hititler, Güney ve Güneydoğu Toroslar’da Geç Hitit Krallıkları’nı kurmuşlar, MÖ 700’deki Asur saldırısına kadar varlıklarını sürdürmüşler. Bu seyahatten daha fazla fotoğraf ve bilgiler hikayelerdeki “Hititler” albümünde sizi bekliyor. #hattuşa #hitit #boğazköy

Perge

Since being founded in 1000 BC, the city has been ruled by the Persians, Alexander the Great, and the Romans. You can see a huge amphitheater that fits 15,000, a necropolis, gymnasium, and beautiful statues of the goddesses Nemesis, Aphrodite, Athena, and the moon goddess Selene.

Alanya Castle

Sitting on top of a high peninsular overlooking the sea is the ruin of what was once one of the best-defended castles on the Mediterranean. Reinforced by 140 ramparts, it is also very close to a number of mosques, the palace of Alaaddin Keykubat, and a church.

]]> Have you ever wanted to visit one of the most famous residences in the world, the White House? The official home of the President of the United States of America is one of the most well-known houses on Earth, and believe it or not, it can be toured for free!

If you want to take a tour of the White House, there are some important steps to follow. All tours must be requested and booked in advance due to high demand, so keep that in mind.

First, if you are a United States citizen, you must request a tour no more than 90 days and no less than 3 weeks before the requested date. This process is done through your local House of Representatives’ office holder.

If you aren’t a citizen, you must contact your country’s embassy in Washington, DC in order to inquire about the possibility of a tour. Usually, it is more difficult for foreigners to tour the White House, but it isn’t impossible.

The White House is only open for tours from Tuesday through Saturday and is closed on federal holidays. From Tuesday to Thursday, the tours take place from 7:30 am to 11:30 am, and on Fridays and Saturdays, they last until 12:30 pm after starting at the same time.

When requesting your tour, be sure to know which dates you have available for touring the White House, and do it as soon as possible! Availability is limited, so the closer to the 90-day opening you request your tour, the more likely it is that you’ll be able to visit.

Good luck, and enjoy!
