Stop At: Sirince, Sirince, Izmir Province, Turkish Aegean Coast
Sirince, a mountain village in the Selcuk District of Izmir, is undoubtedly one of the most aesthetic villages in Turkey. As a matter of fact, our language is not willing to say Village. There's an artificial side of this place that looks more like a movie set. But if you say beautiful, it's architecture, nature, feeling, everything is very beautiful. One of the things that make Sirince stand out among tourist destinations is its fruit wines. Many of the houses in the area have been converted into hotels, and the general public welcomes a large number of guests. From the village square, up to the church located on the top of the village, it is possible to visit shops selling tourist items and exhibitions of crafts.

Turkısh Coffe on the Sand
The traditional Turkish coffee culture, which has fallen into oblivion, has been revived with coffee in the sand and coffee pot culture. Turkish coffee can be prepared with many different cooking methods. These are the ones that provide the best heating, provide the most balanced temperature to the coffee pot, ensure that all the coffee is cooked at the same rate, and create a delicious flavor without losing its aroma is cooking in the sand. The biggest difference between coffee in the sand is that it cooks more slowly compared to other Turkish coffee cooking methods. Because it cooks slowly, coffee and water are cooked by mixing well. For this reason, a tastier coffee is obtained.
