Safranbolu Houses 1/2

Safranbolu was placed in the world Cultural Heritage list by UNESCO in appreciation of the successful efforts in the preservation of its heritage as a whole.
Safranbolu has deserved its real name for its houses, Safranbolu is a town and district of Karabük Province in the Black Sea region of Turkey,located near the north western Black Sea coast of Anatolia,Turkey ;dates back as far as 3000 BC.
Safranbolu displays its extremely rich historical and cultural heritage through 1008 architectural structures displaying a good example of Turkish architecture, all preserved in their original environment.
These houses are perfect examples of old civilian architecture, reflecting the Turkish social life of the 18th and 19th centuries. The size and the planning of the houses are deeply affected by the large size of the families, in other words a total members of a big family living together in one house. The impressive architecture of their roofs have led them to be called as "Houses with five façades". The houses are two or three storied consisting of 6 to 9 rooms, each room is entirely detailed and have ample window space allowing plenty of light. The delicate woodwork and carved wall and ceiling decorations, the banisters indoor knobs etc. all come together to form an unmatched harmony of architectural aesthetics and Turkish art.

Sebnem Peker -Dinle is also my favorite Turkish song for the Eurovision song contest. I think she got 3rd place on 1997 with this cute song.

I am surprised that you remember it :)

Thank you Ricky..
