EDİRNE | Turkey's Underrated Historical City that You Must Visit! (FULL GUIDE). Old Ottoman Capital

[@BeryIstanbulTips]

Hello guys! Finally our video in Edirne is here! This is our longest video, almost 25 min but here you’ll find everything about this outstanding city and what to do in 3 days 🎉 Edirne is also another underrated city in Turkey, but after watching this video we’re sure you’ll want to add it to your itinerary. Did you also know that Sultan Mehmet II The Conqueror of Constantinople was born here? In this episode we show you the exact place! Don’t forget to give us a thumbs up in the video ❤️

[@iamvaibbhavchachad24]

Would you please make an itinerary for 30.days of Turkey its been an humble request

[@farzanasultana8352]

Wow ...i want to go😊

[@aykutsahinbas6259]

Just a little correction, the conqueror of Edirne is not not Fatih Sultan Mehmet's father. 1. Murat is the conqueror and he is 3rd Sultan, Fatih's father is 2. Murat

[@BeryIstanbulTips]

@@aykutsahinbas6259 I never said that Fatih Sultan Mehmet was the Conqueror of Edirne, I said that he was BORN in Edirne, which is different. But yeah, somewhere in the video I said Murad I instead of Murad II, that is my bad 😀

[@quratulainakram8314]

Hi Bery how can we contact you to help us as a tour guide? We are planning on visiting Istanbul in few days

[@mirandapillsbury7885]

Personally my 4 favorite cities in Turkey are not the ones most people think of like Istanbul or Izmir or Ankara. For me it is Edirne, Trabzon, Urfa and Van. Those 4 cities are truly beautiful underappreciated pearls! I highly recommend ppl try to visit those cities!

[@nomorenews]

Totally agree. My favourires are Edirne,Trabzon,Van ,Urfa and Mardin too.I also like nigde/bor

[@Hipstersofasia]

Turkey's largest city located entirely in Europe and quite possibly too, Turkey's most underrated city. It turns out that there's a lot of points of interest to discover in European Turkey apart from the European side of Istanbul. Anyway, what an informative video!

[@orhanturkoglu1982]

I am from Turkey originally but I live in London and I totally agree with you is all about Istanbul and taksim but after this video I will definitely visit edirne

[@hhh-on4fh]

Turkey's history and Ottoman's history wouldn't be complete without the contribution of the Albanians. Happy that am Albanian and happy to see that we've contributed so much for the Empire and the republic. Mimar Sinan was one of us. 🤗. Awesome video as usual

[@orhanturkoglu1982]

Thanks for the good words our Albanian family🇹🇷🇹🇷❤❤🇦🇱🇦🇱

[@jupiter1850]

How do you know for sure that "he is one of you" ?? There are also claims that he is either Armenian, Greek or Turk.

[@busraerturk4224]

​@@jupiter1850Mimar Sinan is a devsirme of Armenian origin. It was a great value for our history. He is also an excellent architect. Even though centuries have passed, the works he made for us (especially the mosques) are still very beautiful and solid. However, there is an unknown fact: Relations between the Ottomans and Armenians were very good at that time, unfortunately, they deteriorated over time because of the British.

[@persimo82]

I studied abroad in Istanbul about 20 years ago, Edirne was one of my favorite places I visited. So much history and art, very friendly and laid back. I remember the peaceful aile cay bahcesi under the big trees. ❤ Edirne

[@iamin03]

Wow, awesome vlog with lots of useful information..... I will definitely add Edirne to my itinerary when I visit Turkey. Keep up the great vlogs and thanks for sharing the info. Love & respect from Bangladesh

[@habibulmasud4576]

Thanks Bery for sharing new & attractive Turkish cities close to Istanbul. This will definitely increase our area of travel around Istanbul…..

[@rajunaidi]

An excellent video with lot of information about Turkey old city Edirne, I hope to see more similar in coming days.

[@sunsetlover632]

Hi Bery!! Huge thanks for these outstanding videos. I encourage you to keep sharing more amazing places in Turkey with us.

[@supersonicsupremus3105]

Edirne is definitely another food paradise in Turkey.

[@zafarali6873]

Yes, this is such a beautiful video like you. I visited this place last month but missed a few things. Very nice one

[@ims121u]

Great video as always. So much ottoman history in Edirne. A place that must be visited...

[@isabelsernaamador8971]

Hola pareja, se ve que es una ciudad con mucha historia. Me encanta ver a los perros y gatos, están gorditos, aunque están en la calle la gente los cuida

[@KristinaTravelina]

I have heard much about Edirne but I haven’t been there. I think it’s time to visit

[@ozlemdr6076]

I’ve been watching your channel for a while and I am glad that you visited my beautiful hometown 😍 great video, lots of useful information for tourists! I hope that people who visit İstanbul also have a day for Edirne because Selimiye Mosque’s unique architecture worths for a visit. 🥳 When you pass Meriç Bridge, you step on Karaağaç, it is the only land across Meriç River that Turkey has. Karaağaç was given to Turkey by Greece according to Lozan (Lausanne) Peace Treaty after our Independence War because Greece damaged West Tracia a lot during Balkan Wars, I. World War and our Independence War. Trees in Söğütlük Forest were planted just in case there is a war with Greece in the future again, we’re gonna cut them and build barriers so that it’s gonna make harder to reach Edirne through land forces. When I was a child, I was afraid that they would come some day, I had nightmares about it. I died twice in my sleep LOL it sounds riddiculus now but there were lots of political issues between us 20 years ago (like Cyprus and Imia/Kardak Crisis) so living in Edirne was never peaceful. My grandma also immigrated from Bulgaria when she was 11, they escaped from Bulgarians’ cruelty because Turkish villages were slaughtered by soldiers at that time. Everybody who lives in Thracia has similar stories and their grandparents were immigrants from Balkans so everybody knows what war and peace means and we also know the value of our land, we love our country a lot 🇹🇷 💕

Amazing and so beautiful For sure not many people knew about this wonderful city I also didn't know Thanks for sharing this awesome city video sister ☺️👍

[@Asad4034]

Right now, I am thinking as to how many times I have to visit Turkey to see all these beautiful historic places coz this country is so so beautiful and vast from a tourist perspective. It just needs months of stay. I wish I could cover all of my travel dreams before I die. I am feeling quite impatient. Such a beautiful way of introducing another hidden gem of beautiful Turkey. It felt as if I was taking history class in a school. Almost, everything was covered in the video. Love from Pakistan ❤️

[@2msvalkyrie529]

My first visit to Turkey was 9 years ago .. I only went because There was cheap flight . I didn't realise how fantastic a place - and how big ! Everything about it is amazing - Culture / History / Cuisine / Archaeology . ! I've been back several times and start learning Turkish . There is so much to see ..!!

Thank you for this video. Edirne has been on my wishlist for years. Hopefully I will get back to Turkey this year and finally make it to Edirne

[@astonng8115]

Hi Berry nice video as always! Please do one for Mardin! Not many people seems to know this hidden treasure with its landscape and Artuqid architecture in the old city.

[@oriath73]

Had planned a great roadtrip in summer, from Athens to Alexandroupolis and all the way up the Evros to Edirne. Unfortunately had to cancel due to the wildfires. Hopefully we'll have a chance to visit this beautiful city sometime in the future. Great video, thank you!

[@cagataykoymen8448]

Hİ! Thats a lovely video!! Im currently a college student in Edirne. Edirne is really a outstanding city in Turkey. Im surprised to see you go to the Emirgan cafe which is near the Meriç Bridge. I used to work there as a waiter but Im sorry to say that I dont recommend you to visit there anymore. Because the owner and some of the employees are rude, food quality is terrible and besides they dont have any hygiene standarts. Im saying all these because I worked there I know and I dont think it is a good place to visit in Edirne....

[@al578]

Very Impressive, Thanks.

Thanks for the detailed video. I've always been curious about this city, but there isn't much content on it. I see it's definitely worth a visit. I'm surprised it isn't more popular. Would love to see more content on the European section. It is extremely underrated.

16:00 lol i remembered something, there is a saying between us “If Istanbul/Constantinople was so beautiful, Fatih Sultan Mehmet wouldn’t have turn back to Edirne after he conquered it.” Edirne was the capital of Ottamans at that time. 🤣🤣 we know that it takes some time to relocate the capital but it is still funny. 😄
