All stone blocks of Bodrum castle belongs to Mausoleum of Halicarnassus which is recognized as one of the seven wonders of ancient world and they were carried by Knights of St. Jean from original place during construction of castle at early 15th century. Mausoleum already has been destroyed by an earthquake before building of castle.

Have been going to Turkey for 30 years but never been to Bodrum for some reason..but around there I have been. Usually visiting my husbands relatives in Izmir and Istanbul they dont let us go cause they want to see us...Merry Christmas and a very Happy New Year!!!

3:11 3650 endemic plants out of the 11707 plant varieties grown in Turkey grown only in Turkey.. that is more than 30 percent of the plants that grow in Turkey only endemic plants specific to Turkey.. This number is more than the sum of endemic plant number in all of Europe.. Yes, Turkey could be agricultural giant of whole Europe if she wants!

Great video. Beautiful area. Loved the tiles around the trees. This area adds wild peacocks to the list of animals around town, loved seeing them. One of the best advertising presentations for a product I have seen with nomads. I might sign up for the magazines. It would be fun if you took us to Greece for a few days.

[@TREADtheglobe]

Yes they are great - no boats to Greece right now .. but we will do a tour in Trudy one day 🚐💐

I still have my pics from when I walked around the castle back in 1997, when I was young and skinny. Great memories !

My wife and I have been watching your videos over the last few months. We live in Istanbul, but my wife is from the Bicol area of the Philippines. Much of her family still live in the Philippines; we usually travel there each year. Of course, the pandemic has changed plans a bit. If you have any questions regarding your future travels to the Philippines, please feel free to contact us. Safe travels.

[@TREADtheglobe]

I’ve been a few times :) I’d fly to Bodrum, spend a few days, drive up to Kusadadi- and stop off at Lake Bafa on the way. There are some ruins and rock tombs by the lake, and a few places to have a nice bit of fish! (And bread and salad of course!)

Those holes on the castle wall overlooking the coast were probably for cannons to protect the castle and control of the area.

This castle, 15th century was built in the century, where different civilizations lived centuries ago, it is a very impressive place that we can visit in this time.(actually due to the corona not these days). I havent seen The castle before your video. I think it's definitely a historic place to see. Thanks :)

hi there travellers good to see things going well for you and also thanks for all the buddy more information you share with the global or should I say the world I know Bodrum quite well I've been there a few times in the past and also thanks for reminding me about all those Good Food wonderful places to eat in Turkey where I live we do have two Turkish restaurants and a takeaway but I don't think they would taste the same hope the ferry trip goes good for you and arrived safe myself on Total lockdown for the next few weeks just because I've been abroad as always promise I will keep an eye on your website and also introduce new people to it all the best Ricky in the UKxxxxxxxxxx

[@TREADtheglobe]

Thank you Ricky ... we are grateful for the share and friendship - Happy New Year !! Marianne

[@folkharmonica]

Glad you liked Bodrum ! Too bad you couldn't take a ferry to one of the Greek Islands. We took the Ferry to Crete one spring break and attended a Greek Easter service. We also took a Ferry from Izmir to Italy during summer break, and that saved us a lot of driving. I don't imagine they run during the pandemic. Maybe you could try Cyprus, since it's half owned by Turkey.

[@TREADtheglobe]

Thanks for the info .... yes maybe we are still working out a plan for 2021

The weather of Bodrum has the second highest oxygen rate in Turkey and the town is always windy. So you can take breath and don't feel humidity in summer. That's way people love Bodrum and it's special place in the world.

Bodrum, Mamaris and Fethiye are the Gulet ,yacht capital of the Turkish Rivera region. I learned about this region while researching my Gulet cruise spring of 2019, where all the Gulet begin. I was hiking on st Nicholas Island, hikers were very friendly to each other,so I asked the Turkish lady after she helped me took a few pictures, "which Gulet are you on?" She pointed at a big private yacht, anchored next to our group. I felt bad for them later that night because I of the Gulet was partying until 1am . There were 3 Gulets and her yacht that night along the coast

On the description above the window of the domed cistern you visited, the following is carved on in Turkish, written with Arabic script (The Turkish language was written with Arabic alphabet from the 11th cent. until 1928) : "Giridî Elhac Hasan Ağa'nın eser-i hayrâtıdır. Sene 1222". The translation : "It's the work of charity by Alhaj Hassan Agha of Crete. Year 1807 (or 1808)". I am not 100% sure with the date of construction because I can't clearly distinguish the script through video. Wish you a nice adventure.
