Pick up from your hotel in Balikesir while continuing in the direction of Salihli, we see the Bintepeler region, where the Lydian tombs are located, from our bus. Bintepeler takes its name from the tumuli on its way and we know the region better with the information given by our guide while we are on the way. First, we will visit the famous Jewish Synagogue and Roman Bath-Gymnasium in the ancient city of Sardes, the capital of the Lydians who found money for the first time in history near Salihli. Ancient toilets and antique shops next to this Roman-era building complex will enrich our trip historically and culturally. Also worth seeing here is the historical King's road, some of which have been unearthed by archaeologists. After the tour, we will come to Kula and walk around the streets of Kula to see the Kursunlu Mosque, Kula old bazaar and Kula Houses, which are the most beautiful architectural examples of the Ottoman Period. After visiting Kula house, we see Hammam-Cafe and have lunch. After lunch, we continue towards Uşak and go to the Geopark. Turkey's first and only Geopark carrying the property, due to the state of the world's first UNESCO enshrined in the formation stages and more than 50 volcanic peaks hosted by "Kula geosite Areas". Then we visit the Fairy Chimneys. Kula fairy chimneys are almost a small example of the Cappadocia region. Both the Geopark and the Fairy Chimneys are important evidence that shows us the power and interestingness of nature. After getting information about the formation and properties of fairy chimneys from our guide, we take our photos and set off to go to Usak. This time, we go to Ulubey Canyon to see the second longest Canyon in the World. We watch the canyon from the glass terrace at a height of 150 meters.We hope your tour was a memorable one and we look forward to seeing you in the future on another TravelShop Booking Tour.
