Turkey Urfa Bazaar

Video of the bazaar in Şanlıurfa & its Gümrül Hanı (a han or caravanserai is like a medieval motel). The han is now a coffee shop frequented by men. Despite the popularity of Turkish coffee throughout the world, the national drink of Turkey is tea. Once outside Istanbul and in the provincial areas of Anatolia, the only coffee the traveler is likely to find is instant. Which is part of the astonishment when the powerful aroma of fresh coffee pleasantly assaults the visitor walking into the courtyard of this medieval han. These scenes in the Urfa bazaar and its han, taken in 2004, may soon vanish with increasing modernization.
