Gogceli Camii - Tarihi Ahsap Civisiz Cami

Reviewed By AnnBlacksea - Samsun, Turkey

The Gogceli mosque was built in 1206 and is entirely made of wooden planks interlocked together without any nails! It is unique as it has no minaret and has unusual Seljuk and Ottoman decorations on the ceiling. The mosque has survived the elements and earthquakes because of its flexible structure and choice of materials - chestnut, oak, elm and ash timber. The mosque is located in a massive cemetery with only a few surviving ancient gravestones. It seems as though the cemetery is now in use again with many recent graves. This unique mosque is worth a visit so make sure you are wearing socks to be able to enter the mosque and of course a head covering for ladies.

Samsun Amazon Heykeli

Reviewed By fbabacan - Turkey, null

Some historic knowledge is between history and mitology like as Troy. Amazons are also one of them But some historians mention about them. And it sounds good a group just with ladies. Is it possible? Maybe they are a feminist belief of that time
