You will come across 99.9999% of people in Selcuk who will not wish to rip you off and will be quite pleasant people. Selcuk is a small friendly town that goes about it's normal business not a busy town but quite laid back atmosphere. People will not treat you as aliens but the one thing you must remember men shouldn't walk around without tops (naked from top) in Selcuk and other towns the locals don't make an issue but some do find it offensive.
Tire: Apollo Faced Marsyas and...?
by Pinat
Tire, a pretty town 80 km. from Izmir center is the place where Apollo, the god of music and poetry faced the shepherd Marsyas. He asked Marsyas for a music competition. If you feel like learning the results, then you should visit my Tire pages:)
Of course Tire is not only mythology. It is one of the distinct towns of Izmir because of its very own cuisine, country-famous Tuesday market, the game of karambol, its dying arts like rope making, and many more. If you have time to go and feel like learning about the details of what I have just mentioned, here is the link to my Tire pages.
