Kusadasi Monument of Atatürk and Youth
No pictures of Efessos or other touristic attractions here.
Just some snapshots of old friends taken in June 2002.
Kuşadası is a seaside resort town that during the
high summer season is swollen beyond all proportions with package
holiday-makers who come to Kusadasi in charter flights via Izmir airport. The
place is particularly popular among Belgian, Dutch, and English tourists who
come here to indulge in its many sandy beaches and its flamboyant night life with its many bars and discos.
By far, the most of these are located in Barlar Street.
Some people even refer to Kusadasi as Turkey's Miami Beach. Luckily, in June
the season has not really started yet and this popular
vacation resort is still enjoyable, especially if one has fantastic friends
here.
We spent some nice days on top of the old bazar of
Kusadasi in Özhan Pansiyon (Tel. +(90) 256 614 29 32 – 612 52 83, Dağ
Mah. Kibris Cad. No. 5). During our short stay we made some excursions
to Selcuk and Tire. Finally, we returned by regular flight
(Turkish Airlines) to Brussels.
