They Photographed the Mystery of Civilizations

During the “Midas Valley Photography Trip” organized by Eskişehir Metropolitan Municipality Youth Center, photographers examined the building blocks of civilizations established in the triangle of Han, Yazılıkaya and Kümbet.

Photography enthusiasts came together at the event organized by the Metropolitan Youth Center. Photographers from Eskişehir, who worked on portraits with the inhabitants of the inn, Yazılıkaya and Kümbet triangle, fit the works from Phrygian and Eastern Rome in detail into their frames. The first stop of the tour, which started from the Ulus Monument, was the Han Underground City. While the photographers were happy to discover the city where the Phrygians lived, they admired the living points carved into the rocks.

The photographers, who listened to the story of the granaries that the Phrygians built underground to protect them from the enemy, from the experienced guide Hakan Öncü, later met with the Mayor of Han Erdal Şanlı. During the photography tour in Yazılıkaya, the participants took shelter in Kırkgözlü caves when they were caught in the rain.

Finally, the photographers who saw Solon's Tomb (Arslanlı Shrine) and Seljuk Vault in the Vault stated that the photography tours organized for them increased their experience and said, “We would like to thank our Metropolitan Mayor Yılmaz Büyükerşen. It has been a very important experience for us. Thank you to everyone involved.”
