Erzurum walking tour: a city on the Anatolian Silk Road, Turkey

Hi everyone,
We made this video walking around the city centre of Erzurum in Eastern Anatolia in the evening.
We stayed in the centre of the city and were happy to discover that many of the typical sightseeing spots were right there within a short walk distance, e.g. the castle of the city, Çifte Minareli Medrese, Yakutia Madrasa, etc.
Erzurum seems to be a more traditional city and has so many great historical buildings to discover.
Btw if you arrive in Erzurum by bus note that the bus station is a bit further from the centre but city buses are running back and forth frequently and only cost 4 TL. If you take a taxi you will pay closer to 50 TL depending on your destination.
We hope you will enjoy this video!

I had been there this February (2023) in the cold of winter. With everything covered in snow, it was not easy to know that Erzurum is just as beautiful a city during the summer months. Thank you for the memories.

How can we reach here from Istanbul? How is the place in summers?

[@YashNico]

We only stayed one night but it was warm and lively when we visited. Lots of people were walking around or enjoying a tea at one of the local cafes. Erzurum has an airport so from Istanbul you can either fly or take the bus. There’s also a train but I think it runs only till Ankara.

Edad Antigua Historia En la antigüedad, Erzurum existía bajo el nombre armenio de Karin. Durante los reinados de los reyes Artaxias y Arsacid de Armenia, Karin sirvió de capital del cantón de mismo nombre, en la provincia Bardzr Haik (Gran Armenia).[8]​ Después de la partición de Armenia entre el Imperio Romano de Oriente y Persia sasánida en el año 387 d.C., la ciudad pasó a manos de los romanos. Ellos fortificaron la ciudad y le cambiaron el nombre a Teodosiópolis, en honor al emperador Teodosio I.[9]​ Como jefe militar de la fortaleza a lo largo de la frontera oriental del imperio, Teodosiópolis celebraba una ubicación estratégica muy importante pero era ferozmente impugnada en guerras entre los bizantinos y los persas. Los emperadores tanto Anastasio I como Justiniano I refortificaron la ciudad y construyeron nuevas defensas durante sus reinados.[10]​
