hey,
im going to bodrum (gumbet) on the 15th of july 2010 and i was wondering do black people visit bodrum for holidays?????
Yep they do. We've been going to Gumbet and Bodrum for many years (we now have a house there) and have seen people of all colours, race, nationality holidaying there.
People go to Bodrum to get black I believe.
Does it matter?
Turkey is a free country with a 1500 years of empire tradition. For that reason every good humanbeing can visit our country.
If it helps there is lots of immigrants from Africa in Istanbul.
I have also seen one couple (lady was black) in Patara (near Bodrum) and they looked like they have enjoyed their holiday and definitely were not the "sensation" of the town.
Have fun in Turkey!
thanks 4 the advice every1... its just that im going with my friend whos black and im white, so she doesnt really want to be the only black person.
Oh Yes I understand now! Now I have some more to say. Black people are rare here in Turkey. For that reason every body will look at them with great admiration. Especielly school children will be very delighted to see a black. They will just stand near her and begin to grin and show her with their fingers to each other. If she is very very very beautiful (for me every lady is verry beautiful) she would be surrounded with young Turks. May god help her. She will feel like a queen.
Citizens of most of the European countries need visas to enter Turkey, but all you need is a valid passport and 10 euros/dollars/pounds.
Turkish money is called Turkish lira, and 1 euro is around 1750000 liras. Money can sometimes be a problem there, because you can easily get confused with all that zeros, but later you get used to it.
While in Turkey you must try Turkish coffee! It is made of a roasted and the minced coffee beans. The taste of turkish coffee is really strong!
Now, here are the instructions for making a perfect cup of turkish coffee:
1. For every cup of coffee you require, pour an equal amount of cold water into a cold ibrik (ibrik is that small pot on the pic in which you make the coffee).
2. For every cup required, add two coffee spoons of our Turkish coffee.
3. Most people prefer Turkish coffee with sugar, although it can be drunk without (sade). Add two coffee spoons of sugar to the ibrik for every cup required to make a medium sweet brew. Adjust to suit your individual taste.
4. Mix the water, sugar and coffee in the ibrik once with the coffee spoon.
5. Place the ibrik onto the top of a stove and cook on the lowest possible flame.
6. As the mixture begins to simmer, the surface of the mixture will begin to foam up. As it appears, pour it (the foam, and only the foam) in equal measures into each cup.
7. Continue the above instruction until all the mixture has gone (2 boils should be enough).
8. The coffee should be allowed to settle for a minute or two before drinking to allow the sediments to settle.
9. Turkish coffee is traditionally accompanied with a glass of cold water.
Fresh fruit and vegetables can be bought in the vegetable market every Thursday and Friday in Bodrum. There are bargains in clothing (such as cheap t-shirts and jeans but don't expect those great bargain levi's to be the authentic items!), fabrics (like the lace specialities from the peninsula) and household goods can be found in the dry good markets on Tuesdays. The markets are to be found quite close to the bus station.
Tour operators offer other market day tours around the peninsula to places like Bitez and Turgetreis.
Bus System is very Impressive in all over Turkey and so in Bodrum .There are regular buses coming and going to Bodrum. But u must book a seat or two in advance. As mostly who ever comes to Turkey comes to Bodrum for its night life.
It is in the (open air) shopping centre named Oasis. Very nice dishes. If you want to taste something different than kebabs or fast wood.Dishes are various & tasty. You can chose directly from the buffet. Almost everything
