Yilankale

Reviewed By rmitgoteam - Naples, United States

This is a wonderful fortress that has been partially restored. The walk starts from the parking lot with paved stones (there’s a cafe here). The easy part soon stops and the path gets rougher but easily manageable. As you go higher and approach the fortress, the path quickly deteriorates. It’s no longer a path. Some difficult rocking climbing is required through this upper section. Getting on all fours will be necessary for many people. When you come back down you’ll likely be sitting and sliding done these same rocks. Some of these rocks are very smooth from lots of use. The climbing required through this section makes Termossos look like a walk in the park. However, we did see older tourists make it up using all fours and down sitting and sliding. There’s more difficult walking once inside the fortress since some of the paths that wind their way around are not in good condition. The panoramas from the top are a bit disappointing due to lots plastic covered vegetable farming and a big rock quarry cluttering the views. The best views of the fortress are on the way up before the bad part starts and from the road below as you approach the parking area.

Buyuk Saat

Reviewed By Ayshasan12 - Nanjing, China

The great clock tower is an iconic spot in Adana and certainly allows the visitors Instagram worthy pictures. For a more picturesque moment I would recommend alittle later hours, when the ancient bazar has relatively closed down and the street lights are mostly enlightening the area. It’s famously known to be one of the tallest in Turkey. (At least that was what was written in the magazine advert) But this bazar is one of the oldest and has many shops ranging from weaponry (yes weaponry, quite shocking) to tobacco products and magnets. The bazar also hosts many famous kebab places and I would definitely recommend the visitors to try those. It’s very close to the authentic Turkish spa (Hamam) , which quite complement the clock at the background and is opposite to a small park. I would recommend the visitors to enter with a car not only because the roads are narrow, but you wouldn’t find spot to park comfortably. Also, On foot would definitely help to discover more than with a car.
