I have a degree in history, and dream of visiting the places that I have read about in books and heard of through lectures. Pluse, Istanbul is very, very important to our current lives that everyone should visit that city. As well as Rome, Paris, London, St. Petersburg, Tokyo, etc . . .
It's like visiting your birthplace, the place where our current societies were truely founded.

I know you are a neighbor of Greece; need to add Athens to my list. One can always find Macedonia through out history in dealings w/ Rome, Greece, and Asia. One of the Major players in other words.
I need to get a good set of books about different countries around the word. That's a new goal of mine. I am kind of a biblophile!

Let me fill you in on a secret you won't find in history books
You must've heard about Alexandar the Great..We Macedonians are very proud of him, cause we believe he is an ancient Macedonian. and the Greeks seem to disagree and think that he is Greek So when you go to Athens, try not to disagree with the Greeks on it, cause they take it too seriously

and do you know Cleopatra used to live her secret relations here in Alanya in Cleopatra Beach?
epicure: and do you know Cleopatra used to live her secret relations here in Alanya in Cleopatra Beach?
I heard that the beach was a gift from her lover and that is why it's called Cleopatra Beach..I can't think of the name of the name of the guy (I think its Marko)..

Good to know. I think I hear something about that in a class I took. But it was like a small footnote.

I wouldn't be surprised. She received quite a few gifts from lovers and such.
