Urla, Izmir Province, Turkey
Urla, Izmir Province, Turkey. The name "Urla" is derived from the Greek Βουρλά ("Vourla") meaning marshlands and the town was cited as such in western sources until the 20th century. Urla is where the ancient city of Klazomenai is located and its highly interesting remains are much visited, while the name lives on in the unofficial appellation used in the region for part of the coastline of the district.

Ephesus
www.fallensword.com Ephesus Ephesus (Ancient Greek Ἔφεσος, Turkish Efes) was an ancient Greek city, and later a major Roman city, on the west coast of Asia Minor, near present-day Selçuk, Izmir Province, Turkey. It was one of the twelve cities of the Ionian League during the Classical Greek era. In the Roman period, it was for many years the second largest city of the Roman Empire; ranking behind Rome, the empire's capital. Ephesus had a population of more than 250000 in the 1st century BC, which also made it the second largest city in the world. The city was famed for the Temple of Artemis (completed around 550 BC), one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World. The temple was destroyed in 401 AD by a mob led by St. John Chrysostom.[3] Emperor Constantine I rebuilt much of the city and erected new public baths. The town was again partially destroyed by an earthquake in 614 AD. The city's importance as a commercial center declined as the harbor was slowly silted up by the Cayster River (Küçük Menderes). Ephesus was one of the seven churches of Asia that are cited in the Book of Revelation. In Revelation Chapter two they were commended by Jesus for their labor to the point of exhaustion, their perseverence and their unwillingness to listen to the false teachers of their day. Jesus does hold one thing against them..."you have left your first love." (NASB) Their Christianity had become a faithful ritual but not a relationship of love to the Lord. The Gospel of John may have <b>...</b>

Refugee boats sinks near İzmir / Turkey - Human Rights
UPDATE: Refugee boats sinks near İzmir At least 61 people have died when a boat carrying more than 100 refugees sank off the western Turkish coast, officials have told the Anatolia news agency. Dozens of survivors were able to swim through the Aegean waters to the shore, just 160 feet away, after the accident on Thursday. "The number of casualties recovered from the boat rose to 61," said Ardahan Totuk, acting governor of Izmir province, adding that the toll would rise as more bodies were found in the boat locker. "The boat's captain and his mate, as well as 43 illegal immigrants, were rescued alive," said Tahsin Kurtbeyoglu, local administrator in Izmir province in western Turkey. "We know that a fishing vessel carrying 107 illegal immigrants, mostly from Syria and Iraq ... hit the rocks off the coast of Izmir, which is very close to the Greek islands. Many of the immigrants on the boat were women and children," reported Al Jazeera's Ozgun Levent in Istanbul. The boat set sail from Ahmetbeyli, a Turkish vicinity on the western coast of Turkey close to Greek islands, and hit the rocks, officials said. Al Jazeera's Levent reported that some of the 48 immigrants who swam to the shore told rescue officials that they were attempting to make their way to the United Kingdom. They said that they had entered into deals with people smugglers based in Izmir in order to make the journey. The survivors said several people had been trapped below the deck of the submerged vessel, and <b>...</b>

Izmir,Kusadasi - Turkey 2012
This article is about the city in Turkey. For province of Turkey, see Izmir Province. Izmir (Turkish: İzmir, Greek: Σμύρνη Smyrni, Latin Smyrna) is a large metropolis in the western extremity of Anatolia and the third most populous city in Turkey. Izmir metropolitan area extends along the outlying waters of the Gulf of İzmir and inland to the north across Gediz River's delta, to the east along an alluvial plain created by several small streams and to a slightly more rugged terrain in the south. The ancient city was known as Smyrna, (Σμύρνη, Smyrne in Greek) and the city was generally referred to as Smyrna in English, until the Turkish Postal Services Law of 1930 made "Izmir" the internationally recognized name. The city of Izmir is composed of several metropolitan districts. Of these, Konak district corresponds to historical Izmir, this district's area having constituted the "Izmir Municipality" (Turkish: İzmir Belediyesi) area until 1984, Konak until then having been a name for a central neighborhood around Konak Square, still the core of the city. With the constitution of the "Greater Izmir Metropolitan Municipality" (Turkish: İzmir Büyükşehir Belediyesi), the city of Izmir became a compound bringing together initially nine, and since recently eleven metropolitan districts, namely Balçova, Bayraklı, Bornova, Buca, Çiğli, Gaziemir, Güzelbahçe, Karabağlar, Karşıyaka, Konak and Narlıdere. Almost each of these settlements are former district centers or neighborhoods which <b>...</b>

Air Show Izmir 2011 Turkey - 100 Years Turkish Air Force (2011-06-05)
The official events already started in January 2011, but cumulated for the public in the International air show, hosted at the 2nd Main Jet Base Command (Çigli/Izmir) on 04 and 05 June 2011. As Turkey is very secretive and restricted with everything regarding their military, it is no wonder that the spotterdays offered on the day before and after the event was soon fully booked with 1000 (!) enthusiasts wanting to attend. The Air Show Türkiye Izmir 2011 was a distinguished activity among the centennial activities of the Turkish Air Force. Of course the main focus of the flight program was hoped to be based around the different aircraft of the Turkish Air Force, and the announced "Turkish Air Force Inventory Pass", which included Cougar helicopters, T-41, SF-260, T-37, KT-1, T-38, CN-235, C-160, C-130, KC-135, F-16, F4-E/2020, NF-5 2000 and T-34 promised to be an excellent opportunity of aircraft rarely seen in the sky. Amongst them the TuAF is one of the few remaining Air Forces to use the T-37 and T-38 trainer aircraft.

Although our folk music has much diversity and difference with respect to regional characteristics, it can be reviewed under the below 6 regions in a general classification: Istanbul and Turkish Thrace, Aegean, Middle Anatolia, South-East Anatolia, Eastern Anatolia, Black Sea. This folk music "Cevizin Yaprağı Dal Arasında (Walnut Leaf Between Branch)" belongs to Afyon Province.

Villages Evacuated As Wildfires Threaten Western Turkey
Smoke and flames surround five villages in western Turkey. The wildfires broke out Saturday in the town of Bergama in Izmir Province forcing residents to evacuate. Some were moved to local wedding halls, where they spent the night as the blazes continued to threaten their homes. On the minds of many were all they'd left behind in the rush to leave. [Evacuated Villager]: "We saved our lives, but all our belongings are still there, our houses, all our belongings are still there." Some 500 fire-fighters supported by 10 helicopters swept into action, as strong winds fuelled the flames. State-run media report the cause of the fire is still unknown.
