Izmir. Large city, High buildings, roads,
parcs and palmtrees |
![](/2011/9-TuAF/ANTIKHAN/Extra%20Touristic%20(10).JPG) |
Brandnew roads are being constructed, along them modern
gas-stations... |
![](/2011/9-TuAF/ANTIKHAN/Extra%20Touristic%20(7).JPG) |
.... not seldom equipped with a row of shops for the 'small
everyday things' and even nice gifts |
![](/2011/9-TuAF/ANTIKHAN/Extra%20Touristic%20(14).JPG) |
In the neighbourhood you'll find the harbour,
rest a while and behold the
little fishermen ships up to naval facilities... |
![](/2011/9-TuAF/ANTIKHAN/Extra%20Touristic%20(2).JPG) |
.... or would you prefer having a good
dinner in a nice restaurant on the
water ? |
![](/2011/9-TuAF/ANTIKHAN/Extra%20Touristic%20(15).JPG) |
.... along the highways you see modern flats and
appartments rising... |
iiiii![](/2011/9-TuAF/ANTIKHAN/Extra%20Touristic%20(3).JPG) |
...and yes, traffic is heavy mostly, but on the
other hand you can spend time to enjoy local fishermen and restful water... |
![](/2011/9-TuAF/TOURISTIC/DSC_6144.JPG) |
A couple of local men didn't mind helping us promote
Izmir, drinking a specific Turkish tea on it !! |
i |
Once in Turkey make sure you'll vist
a local market ! Great atmosphere !!
|

![](/2011/9-TuAF/TOURISTIC/DSC_6146.JPG) |
Real nice local pictures to feel the atmosphere
downtown, small markets with small businessmen...yellow cabs... |
![](/2011/9-TuAF/TOURISTIC/DSC_6135.JPG) |
Fresh fruit, nuts, dates, eggs, dried fruit, they have
it all readily available |
![](/2011/9-TuAF/TOURISTIC/DSC_6140.JPG) |
Second hand sewing machines, totally revised, or 'with
minor defect' |
![](/2011/9-TuAF/TOURISTIC/DSC_6216.JPG) |
From fruit to kebab, to carpets |
![](/2011/9-TuAF/TOURISTIC/DSC_6150.JPG) |
Salad, garlic, water melons, bananas, it's one color
party |
![](/2011/9-TuAF/TOURISTIC/DSC_6155.JPG) |
Aubergines, onions, and yes, we tasted the peppers
with dinner, this cost us some refreshments extra !! |
![](/2011/9-TuAF/TOURISTIC/DSC_6157.JPG) |
A lot of preserved fruits and food |
![](/2011/9-TuAF/TOURISTIC/DSC_6160.JPG) |
Don't like fish ? Shame on you, we did ! |
![](/2011/9-TuAF/TOURISTIC/DSC_6163.JPG) |
Great atmosphere, great photographic opportunities |
![](/2011/9-TuAF/TOURISTIC/DSC_6165.JPG) |
Thought The Netherlands was the 'cheese country' ,
well... here they also know many brands |
![](/2011/9-TuAF/TOURISTIC/DSC_6167.JPG) |
Ofcourse it's hard work, but when you get old, there
must be time for a nice warm tea and moments of rest |
![](/2011/9-TuAF/TOURISTIC/DSC_6169.JPG) |
Spices |
![](/2011/9-TuAF/TOURISTIC/DSC_6178.JPG) |
Flowers... in all sorts and colors |
![](/2011/9-TuAF/TOURISTIC/DSC_6179.JPG) |
Salesmen try to persuade you to follow them and buy
from their store, and who would blame them ? |
|
Though time for a game, it mostly is hard work for
some people. The 'shoe-shine' man did his job with pleasure however |
![](/2011/9-TuAF/TOURISTIC/DSC_6215.JPG) |
Many stalls selling trinket, juewlery, watches, rings,
bracelets you name it |
![](/2011/9-TuAF/TOURISTIC/DSC_9344.JPG) |
This girl in the street closes our view on the cosy
marketplace. Thank you all, we wish you good business ! |
![](/2011/9-TuAF/TOURISTIC/DSC_9345.JPG) |
We drove around in Izmir and environments |
![](/2011/9-TuAF/TOURISTIC/DSC_9354.JPG) |
You meet the most simple but pictureque spots along
the roads, if you're open for it |
![](/2011/9-TuAF/TOURISTIC/DSC_9368.JPG) |
Simple beauty can be in a palmtree, or a mountain |
![](/2011/9-TuAF/TOURISTIC/Last%20xtra%201.jpg) |
Even art can be found along the road |
![](/2011/9-TuAF/TOURISTIC/Last%20xtra%202.jpg) |
Or beauty in an old weathered aqueduct |
![](/2011/9-TuAF/TOURISTIC/DSC_9363.JPG) |
Turkey builds...flats, houses, apartments, wouldn't
mind at all living in such a house ! |
![](/2011/9-TuAF/TOURISTIC/DSC_9370.JPG) |
Modern wind-energy projects |
![](/2011/9-TuAF/TOURISTIC/DSC_9377.JPG) |
Nice tourist boulevards |
![](/2011/9-TuAF/TOURISTIC/DSC_9382.JPG) |
We were lucky to have one day free, and look around
along the beaches and blue water |
![](/2011/9-TuAF/TOURISTIC/DSC_9383.JPG) |
Paradise for sun worshipers |
![](/2011/9-TuAF/TOURISTIC/DSC_9392.JPG) |
The coastline near
Çiğli
, which is situated a little above the well known town Kusadassi, but more
quit overhere |
![](/2011/9-TuAF/TOURISTIC/DSC_9396.JPG) |
Ideal for us, a restful place to make inventory,
prepare articles and have nice cold drinks ! |
![](/2011/9-TuAF/TOURISTIC/DSC_9405.JPG) |
And ofcourse - Dutch as we are - fried patatoes, with...
Turkish pickles |
![](/2011/9-TuAF/TOURISTIC/DSC_9409.JPG) |
Finally to the beach, rent a sun-chair, stick your
feet in the sand... |
![](/2011/9-TuAF/TOURISTIC/DSC_9403.JPG) |
Hoist yourself in your swimsuit, the water is of great
temperature. |
![](/2011/9-TuAF/TOURISTIC/DSC_9408.JPG) |
It's just without reason, or maybe just that, but we
experienced the Turkish people as extremely friendly |
![](/2011/9-TuAF/TOURISTIC/DSC_6211.JPG) |
Just ask any tourist, if you get lost, a flat tire,
everyone is keen to help you. |
![](/2011/9-TuAF/TOURISTIC/Last%20xtra%205.JPG) |
We ourselves got lost frankly, the police brought us
right back to the frontdoor of our Hotel Antikhan !! Thanks again ! |
![](/2011/9-TuAF/DETAILS/Police.jpg) |
How grateful we were these guys ! |
![](/2011/9-TuAF/TOURISTIC/Last%20xtra%206.JPG) |
The gold of the future, cold drinking water |
![](/2011/9-TuAF/TOURISTIC/Last%20xtra%208.JPG) |
And who would tell Turkish women are not emancipated ?
This woman tries to catch the evening-fish for dinner |
![](/2011/9-TuAF/TOURISTIC/DSC_6210.JPG) |
Izmir, town of modern Hotels... |
![](/2011/9-TuAF/TOURISTIC/DSC_6206.JPG) |
....decorated cosy boulevards... |
![](/2011/9-TuAF/TOURISTIC/DSC_6204.JPG) |

... traffic and advertising, what's new ?.... |
![](/2011/9-TuAF/TOURISTIC/DSC_6187.JPG) |
....pedestrian bridges over the highways... |
![](/2011/9-TuAF/TOURISTIC/DSC_6147.JPG) |
Even old ruins in the middle of the city. That
characterises Izmir many times. |
![](/2011/9-TuAF/TOURISTIC/DSC_6145.JPG) |
How old would this be ?.... |
![](/2011/9-TuAF/ANTIKHAN/Extra%20Touristic%20(8).JPG) |
Izmir, from very early in the morning
(baker) up till the very late hours (party) the right choice ! |
![](/2011/9-TuAF/ANTIKHAN/Extra%20Touristic%20(11).JPG) |
We had a wonderful first vist in Turkey,
and we hope to report again in 2012 ! |
![](/2011/9-TuAF/TOURISTIC/DSC_9379.JPG) |
We showed you that Izmir has one of the
most beautiful environments, certainly worth while a (holiday ?) visit !
