    Hello guys! Finally our video in Edirne is here!
    This is our longest video, almost 25 min but here you’ll find everything about this outstanding city and what to do in 3 days 🎉
    Edirne is also another underrated city in Turkey, but after watching this video we’re sure you’ll want to add it to your itinerary.
    Did you also know that Sultan Mehmet II The Conqueror of Constantinople was born here? In this episode we show you the exact place!
    Don’t forget to give us a thumbs up in the video ❤️

      Just a little correction, the conqueror of Edirne is not not Fatih Sultan Mehmet's father. 1. Murat is the conqueror and he is 3rd Sultan, Fatih's father is 2. Murat

      @BeryIstanbulTips  3 роки тому +2

      @@aykutsahinbas6259 I never said that Fatih Sultan Mehmet was the Conqueror of Edirne, I said that he was BORN in Edirne, which is different.
      But yeah, somewhere in the video I said Murad I instead of Murad II, that is my bad 😀

    Personally my 4 favorite cities in Turkey are not the ones most people think of like Istanbul or Izmir or Ankara. For me it is Edirne, Trabzon, Urfa and Van. Those 4 cities are truly beautiful underappreciated pearls! I highly recommend ppl try to visit those cities!

    Turkey's history and Ottoman's history wouldn't be complete without the contribution of the Albanians. Happy that am Albanian and happy to see that we've contributed so much for the Empire and the republic. Mimar Sinan was one of us. 🤗. Awesome video as usual

      @busraerturk4224 Рік тому +1

      ​@@jupiter1850Mimar Sinan is a devsirme of Armenian origin. It was a great value for our history. He is also an excellent architect. Even though centuries have passed, the works he made for us (especially the mosques) are still very beautiful and solid. However, there is an unknown fact: Relations between the Ottomans and Armenians were very good at that time, unfortunately, they deteriorated over time because of the British.

    Turkey's largest city located entirely in Europe and quite possibly too, Turkey's most underrated city. It turns out that there's a lot of points of interest to discover in European Turkey apart from the European side of Istanbul. Anyway, what an informative video!

    I’ve been watching your channel for a while and I am glad that you visited my beautiful hometown 😍 great video, lots of useful information for tourists! I hope that people who visit İstanbul also have a day for Edirne because Selimiye Mosque’s unique architecture worths for a visit. 🥳
    When you pass Meriç Bridge, you step on Karaağaç, it is the only land across Meriç River that Turkey has. Karaağaç was given to Turkey by Greece according to Lozan (Lausanne) Peace Treaty after our Independence War because Greece damaged West Tracia a lot during Balkan Wars, I. World War and our Independence War. Trees in Söğütlük Forest were planted just in case there is a war with Greece in the future again, we’re gonna cut them and build barriers so that it’s gonna make harder to reach Edirne through land forces. When I was a child, I was afraid that they would come some day, I had nightmares about it. I died twice in my sleep LOL it sounds riddiculus now but there were lots of political issues between us 20 years ago (like Cyprus and Imia/Kardak Crisis) so living in Edirne was never peaceful. My grandma also immigrated from Bulgaria when she was 11, they escaped from Bulgarians’ cruelty because Turkish villages were slaughtered by soldiers at that time. Everybody who lives in Thracia has similar stories and their grandparents were immigrants from Balkans so everybody knows what war and peace means and we also know the value of our land, we love our country a lot 🇹🇷 💕

It just needs months of stay. I wish I could cover all of my travel dreams before I die. I am feeling quite impatient. Such a beautiful way of introducing another hidden gem of beautiful Turkey. It felt as if I was taking history class in a school. Almost, everything was covered in the video. Love from Pakistan ❤️

I used to work there as a waiter but Im sorry to say that I dont recommend you to visit there anymore. Because the owner and some of the employees are rude, food quality is terrible and besides they dont have any hygiene standarts. Im saying all these because I worked there I know and I dont think it is a good place to visit in Edirne....
