We Travel to Göbekli Tepe near the Turkish/Syrian Border, for a Homeschool Field Trip Ep48

With Turkey’s incursion into Northern Syria, the Turkish/Syrian border is headline news at the moment for all the wrong reasons, but when we visited in July 2019, it was relatively peaceful and safe. We sincerely hope the recent conflict finds a speedy and peaceful outcome because it is a fantastic part of the world with great people – an internationally important cultural and historical area that deserves protection and peace.
Known as ‘Zero Point in Time’ Göbekli Tepe’ is the oldest known monument in the world and changes everything we thought we knew about the evolution of civilisation. Only recently unearthed and shrouded in mystery this ‘Temple’ site has archaeologists baffled. The visitor centre opened only this year but with the conflict in Syria still raging, there were very few western visitors here – in fact we almost had the place to ourselves!
We found the Turks friendly, warm and welcoming and enjoyed genuine Turkish hospitality unburdened by the usual trappings associated with western tourist hotspot.
The 24 hour bus journey took us form Bodrum to Sanliurfa, one of Turkey’s great pilgrimage cities and we dove headlong into Turkish culture and heritage by checking out the local Bazaar, the Sacred Fish Ponds (Gölbasi area) and the new museum complex. It was definitely one of the highlights of our adventures so far that will be difficult to top!
