Visiting Bodrum's
ancient
Antique Theatre, singing
your favourite song out loud
and hearing your voice echo

Playing in
the mud baths and
swimming in the natural warm
waters near the Roman ruins at
Pamukkale. It is a bit of a trek
up the hill but taking it slowly
with plenty of stops, and then
spending some time swimming
at the top, is a wonderful experi-
ence. See p. 132.
Gazing up
at the Old Mosque
in Edirne and counting the little
domes to see how many there
are. See p. 103.
The Aegean Region
Tucking into
an authentic
Turkish family meal - a meze is

of local delicacies are served so if
some members of the family
aren't quite so keen on certain
flavours there are plenty of alter-
natives. See p. 145.

the water's edge at Ku
@
adası -

the world it will eventually end
up. See p. 141.

inside a 'shipwreck' at
the Museum of Underwater
Archaeology in Bodrum. See
