A hidden treasure in Istanbul – Travel News
My friend Bülent Alkuzu, who is a horse couple with his family in Göktürk in Istanbul, took me to the Mağlova Arch for the first time… We walked through the Kemerburgaz City Forest. This time, he said “Spring you can do it” and sent me the way. He is alone, accompanied by his friend Cihan Çağlayan. We both draw as if we understood the recipe, but there is no direction or direction in the forest area; profile is a matter of course for us. According to Bülent’s description, the way of their roads is, we will walk through the roads and reach the wide road from the road. Then we’ll walk until we see we’re going to whitewash to the left. White continues from the internet to the Başhavuz. Then bla… As we forget everything we heard on the wider dirt road and I’m going on the first trip just for the Chiefpool.
Navigation shows Başpool and Mağlova Arch. They surrounded Başhavuz’s system with wire fences. I first climbed up and watched it flow into it… From here on we go again. We may be in the forest, but we are in Istanbul. We see makeshift houses on the road. The dogs are chasing us. There are dogs in abundance in the area, but they are harmless to be fed by their souls. We are relieved when we see the Mağlova Arch. The water is not easy to reach up to the arch. We pass very carefully… Is it enjoyable? Yeah! But the voice inside me says ‘Go somewhere easy, Bahar’. Our goal can be reached. It can be reached all the way to the bottom of the belt. But I have to consider that the car steer leads to the wrong path and at the same time follow the signs.
Pyramid legs are identical
View the Mağlova Aqueduct after a while of the water pattern. That image gives people more enthusiasm. As soon as we arrive, we stop and watch. It’s so great at work! The acoustics of the mosques built by Mimar Sinan are also present here. To protect from floods and do bad things for something that is going through war. The pyramid-shaped foot system is unique in the world. 33 different inner belts are taken care of ‘thank God’. Vertical vertical lines from two different fronts are directed towards. After entering the Mağlova Arch, we proceed through a tunnel and climb the stairs. We cross the bridge in the middle, and water goes to Istanbul over it. Covered for water contamination. Where one can walk from where the water is carried, it’s roughly 170 centimeters. We lose it while taking pictures on the bridge.
Do not walk on it!
We climb up the path to the support of the walls of the back-education Mağlova Arch that we came from. Thermoses come out of our bag on the top of the wall; agrees. we watch the rest of our settings. We are both in Istanbul and yet so far away. I’m not done here yet. The first system showed up at the top of the arch, and that’s when I had a mad fear of heights. I’ve beaten my time and I’m ready to scare to rebuild.
We are advancing on the Mağlova Aqueduct. Suddenly whistles are blowing. Someone is calling me with gestures. They put polytheists and forbade them to climb on it. How should I know! Oh, you don’t. We are looking for Bülent again in the examination after returning; again and it describes. So what are we doing? We are diving into the trees… The internet is drawing attention. Navigate the main pool. But this time our job is difficult, the forest is full of thorns. You cannot go anywhere on the map. We don’t have a head lamp either. My friend Cihan is going ahead of the way, worried that it will be dark in the evening. I’m used to it. zero worries. We manage to get down to the end of the road again. My friend is similar to the price of cats. His pants are in the rake. “I wouldn’t eat so many needles if I was acupuncture with my sister,” she says.
When you are about to reach the arch, you have to dive into the forest and start moving on this difficult road. It is told as much as “So that I do not like adventures”.
It went all the way to the “bone” that stuck in my knee. It tingles strangely. If you are going to do such things, not everyone is leaving… Walk into the forest; If you’re going to dive, get garden shears. Those who do not want to take a walk and say “I don’t like adventures like this” will throw them in the car and go all the way to the end of their belt. He will even watch the Mağlova Kemer for a long time in his car. More enjoyers will grab their table, chair and picnic against the arch. Those with children take picnic tables from places in the children’s and playgrounds at the back. will set the children’s table. I swear these plans are gone, even mine. Third time I go here. Always adventure, always adventure, how far!
PLEASE DO NOT WASTE!
Parkour, picnic without fire is the best
