Today, you’ll turn the tempo down with a glimpse into the laid-back lifestyle of a typical Turkish village. In the mountain village of Bayir, donkeys stand in place of cars, and the locals swear by a giant tree in the main square – walking around it 3 times is said to bring good luck. Little communities like this still make a living in old-fashioned ways, like hand-producing honey and weaving carpets. You’ll stop by a comparatively modern museum, which is dedicated to honey-making and built in a honeycomb shape. And you’ll visit a shop where you can haggle for handmade carpets. Another village on our route is Turgut, where you’ll peep into a mosque, a school, and a traditional house. After lunch, we’ll shortcut past a pretty waterfall before making our last stop in the sleepy coastal settlement of Hisarönu – not to be confused with the neon-lit party town of the same name.
