Harran Ruins are genuine culture items of world history no doubt. However the area of university and even town itself is quite neglected. Only few of beehive houses are remaining and they are converted into "culture houses" which you may have to pay. ATTENTION: Keep away from unofficial local guides!!! They approach you as soon as you enter the town and offer guidance immediately. Do not accept their offer! Later they take you to culture house and try to sell you thing and later charge you like a crazy for their service. Make your own tour! Apart from that, the ambiance and lifestyle is amazing there. The shape of the houses, the world's first university remainings.. do not miss it! Harran is a place you should see before you die.
