Bayburt HONEST BALCISI

Bayburt, Gumushane, compared with a large city, mid-Coruh filtered flows. Magnificent castle dominates the city on a hill far away stands out. Coruh coast tea gardens, historic clock tower, a small square, narrow streets ... A little stroll. Bakshi will learn how to go to the Museum. Ready to get way over the window of honey comb honey comb, honey cans knees in front of the store stands, looking at shop window. The owner comes out. Hi, chat, chat ...

Aydintepe a small town, standing in the center. Small tree shade in the heat of a tea garden ... a refreshing swim in the People's working lunch. Now there are drinking water from the fountain into the blood into the blood.
Kah ways after a good, sometimes bad. Look forward. Coruh River to the left after a while, the narrow, winding mountain road we enter. Climb up. Prolonged and if the road. Coruh behind, was as follows. And that's before us the different architecture of the museum! On the hill overlooking the valley of the Coruh. Rural-urban migration and a bit later Bayraktar gurbeti marked by a typical Anatolian village.

Below this the nudity for his life with pride, coy coy Coruh flowing ... Naked young girls across the bowels of the mountain near us, a point on the full show: "It's my village." People here nor place, nor drink, how to live, I ask. "Beekeeping," he says proudly: "There is no similar balımızın region." Flower of the prairie hope that this young girl with love and admiration I looked at the ...

Inmemizi kid down the stairs, lights, pursue, 1150-meter walk from one place to download çıkacağımızı saying, in case electricity is cut off a hand lamp ignites and we locked the door on us. Ürpermemek not obtained. Enough to accommodate one person trying to walk like a maze by tilting our heads in the road. Let cool and damp, wet places. From time to time sağlı sollu small chambers, I think in three or four large rooms. A very eye strikes, temperature 13 degrees. For some reason, afraid of accelerating steps. Oh to see the light of day are having a profound distance. Open the door and going out from one place to another. Trying to get to know the surroundings. Place six of the City at the tea garden, the asphalt road, a row of apartment and have a rather large hill.
