There are places that smell of history... This is Cesme - a small Turkish town near the Aegean Sea. Two cultures are intertwined here: Greek and Turkish, because very close by, the outline of the island of Chios, Greece can be seen across the sea.

I love the old, I study history by heart...
Especially at night, walking between ancient houses that stand as mute witnesses of history...

I suddenly meet a beautiful old man who proudly wears the signs of his venerable age...

Taking photos of old houses is my hobby. I enjoy looking at the foundation stones overgrown with plants. All this creates unique pictures that can tell a lot for posterity...

The historical Tower in the rays of the evening sun, which remembers the events of past centuries...

Apartment hotels are located in these old houses. The ancient and the modern are very beautifully combined...

In the New Year, I felt the atmosphere of a magical fairy tale here...

How magical is this stately home with a full moon in the sky?

I saw a strange building. A local resident said: they wash here before prayer

While reading your article, my soul rested. Everything in the past never loses its beauty, I think it's a unique thing.

Neden antikaları seviyoruz? Belki de hafızamızın özelliği olduğu için: tüm kötüleri sil ve sadece iyiyi bırak? O eski zamanlarda ne olduğunu bilmiyoruz. Sadece güzel eski evler görüyoruz ve hayal gücümüz güzel resimler çiziyor...

I also love to visit such old buildings, monuments, particularly ancient cities wherever I go. As you know, those buildings remained from the Greeks after the Exchange in 1920s.

If you go to Ayvalık, which is about 250 kms northerly far from Çeşme, you will see much more untouched buildings like them, there are even foundation years written above the doors.

Beautiful photos, history is the spirit of the past that always tempts us to explore the remains of past times, in order to learn more about them.

Шкода, що ви не бачите, Валентино. Вам би сподобались ці німі свідки історії, як я їх назвала!
