"Turkey: The City of Mardin Though the Eyes of its Children
Text by Melih Uslu | Photographs by Bariş Hasan Bedir
Built on a hill in the middle of a flat plain in south-eastern Turkey, Mardin is a perfect natural vintage point over the Sirian desert. Its yellow stone houses, built in the rocks, ancient labirints and cobbled streets resemble from a distance a prehistorical gygantic tower, a behive of immense proportions. As Melih Uslu writes, the best way to experience the city’s atmosphere, see its architecture, taste its food and meet its people is through Mardin’s children."
