Can someone suggest which Pamuk book to start with? I haven't read any yet! Of course I am not limited to only one, but I'd like a good introduction to him and sometimes works can vary greatly. If, for example, you started a dalliance with Graham Green by first reading Stamboul Train, I think you would be very disappointed. He couldn't afford to actually go to Constantinople to write it, and it shows, because he describes the external domes of the Blue Mosque "floating up like a cluster of azure…

Hi guys, I was wondering if anyone would have insights on whether tickets for Besiktas v. Galatasaray on Sept 24 would still be available, and if so, what's the easiest (and cheapest) way to get one?

I am currently in Belgrade, but should be in Istanbul from this…

I have a few days to kill on the Turkish Mediterranean coast and I would like to find some fun social gathering, adventure, spiritual workshop, or cool place to hang out.

  • Doing group yoga on…

My husband and I will be going to Turkey for 11 days in early January. Not the best time but it's the only time we can go! This is our current plan:

We arrive at 5:15 on January 3 on a straight flight from San Francisco. I'm assuming we'll only have energy for dinner and then back to hotel to rest.
3 nights in Istanbul, and then flying to Kayseri (arrives at 10:45pm)
3 nights in Goreme, then taking an overnight bus to Denizli
arrive in morning and spend day in Pamukkale and then take train [or…

Can anyone tell me if the Mevlevi Dervishes are still performing a sema on Saturdays in Konya. Is it still free of charge? And where exactly does the sema take place?
