Itinerary
We will pick up you from your hotel and start your city tour. Yeni Han, is an excellent example of how antiquity can perfectly fit into modernity. Once the building was used as a caravanserai, where travelers and traders could spend the night, eat and relax. Today, here is the cultural and shopping center of the city, where citizens and guests of Manisa love to spend time. Sultan Mosque was built in 1522 and is part of a complex that originally consisted of medrese (seminary), bimarhane (mental hospital), mektep (primary school) and hamam. The hamam is still functioning, the bimarhane houses the Medical History Museum and the mektep houses a cafe. Archaeological Museum, artworks from traditional Sardes, Magnesia and other provincial towns from local and district are displayed here. In the museum’s collection, there is a wealthy culture of the districts that begins from the bronze age until the Byzantine Period’s end. Muradiye Mosque, which is the work of the Great Master Mimar Sinan, is one of the most magnificent buildings of Manisa. Mimar Sinan drew the project of the mosque, but died when the mosque was finished and could not see the work. Niobe the area known as Crying Rock was so called, according to mythology, because Niobe was crying for her 14 children killed by Leto. Manisa Fortress consists of an internal and external fortress. The construction used brick masonry, which is most characteristic of the buildings of the Byzantine period. The total length of the fortress and walls is about 4.5 kilometers, its complex also includes 13 towers. The remaining ruins are only two of the seven gates of the fortress. Sureyya Nature Park is located in the greenery with picnic and barbecue areas, wedding and organization garden, breakfast garden, and children playgrounds. After tour we drop you back to your hotel.
