Mersin (Also known as İçel/Icel)

Mersin is one of the most modern provinces of the palmlined avenues, city park and modern hotels region and a good base for visiting the nearby historical sites and beaches. Mersin which is the largest port on the Turkish Mediterranean. There is also free zone here. It is a business centre. In Mersin you may find all the comforts of a modern city and all the characteristics of the Mediterranean cities. Fish is as well as most delicious in this region and in the Mersin fish market you will find inexpensive fish restaurants which are really enjoyable for those who love fish and "Raki" or wine. Although Mersin dates only from the 19th century, it occupies an extremly ancient site. At Mount Yumuktepe the excavations proved that there had been twelve successive settlements beginning from the Neolithic Period.

Icel also has hunting, fishing, picnicking, mountaineering and caving attractions.

History

Formerly MERSINA, city and seaport, south-central Turkey. It lies along the Mediterranean Sea at the extreme western end of the Cilician Plain, 40 miles (65 km) west-southwest of Adana.

A town of recent origin, Mersin stands near the site of an unidentified ancient settlement. The ruins of the Roman harbour town of Soli-Pompeiopolis lie immediately to the west. Excavations in a mound called Yümük Tepesi, 2 miles (3 km) north of the modern harbour, indicate settlements in the remote Neolithic (New Stone Age) Period: a village was fortified there as early as c. 3600 BC and again during the Old Hittite (c. 1750-1460 BC) and New Hittite (c. 1460-1200 BC) empires but was abandoned after the foundation of Pompeiopolis.

Mersin's artificial harbour is an outlet for the agricultural products and minerals of the Cilician Plain and southeastern Anatolia. The site was chosen because of its silt-free location and its rail and road connections with the interior. A branch line links Mersin with Adana and the Istanbul-Baghdad railway. The port is connected by ferry to Cyprus. Mersin is the site of one of Turkey's largest oil refineries. Pop. (1980 prelim.) 216,308.

^^By saying resort city, do you mean a vacation city like Antalya?

No Mersin is not a holiday city, it is an industry and business city. Also it has some sort of free tax or low tax industrial/business zones, which makes city vibrant in those areas.

One of the most beautiful Turkish cities, hands down. Lost its crown as the tallest Turkish city when IsBankasi tower 1 was completed in Istanbul. However, the shape of the Mercin Metropol Hotel (is this the name or has it changed?) signifies one of the most notable tall buildings in this part of the workd - (i.e. the Balkans and Asia Minor), I came close to say middle east but unfortunately for all of us, the Emirates have started to take off architecturally and only buildings like the Diamond of Istanbul and the rest of the projects above 200m may make a difference there.

Still though from what I know the Metropol must be #2 in Turkey, standing between IsBankasi and Teskstilkent towers.

Interesting though, our cities present some somilarities in their modern architectures due to the use of concrete and glass, with height being some times the only differentiating element.

This is probably because many Turkish (and Greek for that matter) cities have been built very fast to accomodate various needs that have risen from the sudden economic development for the last 30 years.

I will agree that Mersin is not Istanbul, or Izmir but, I can see that the mayor has been very active during those last years. I mean, ugly buildings or lack of history (compare it to Ankara which has been there as a settlement since 3000 years ago) cannot be a burden if the mayor has the will to transform the city. After all, seaside cities are by nature blessed with an advantage over landlocked ones.

This Mersin Metropol or Merit building though... Remarkable. I mean, why would they build such a tall building there instead of another city like Istanbul or Izmir?

Kuvvaci

Yes, İçel is the province... Actually we always confused about this subject... When we write İstanbul, İstanbul what? Istanbul city, or the province... Both of them are not the same...

Allan

October 1st, 2005, 04:08 PM

yes true. Icel is the name of the province, however Mersin officially was called Icel after the province for some time, and appearently no one didn't like it.

Anyway, thanks for the pictures, like I said, impressive building.

Also, I think it's time you guys started a thread about other Turkish cities. I mean, I can tell Konya and Adana for starters. Konya has a square with a very impressive and modern building. Adana must be the Benidorm of Turkey from what I saw. Also, Ankara needs an update. Anyway, what I am telling you, thanks for the pics.

Unfortunately there are quite a lot of borken links in the current other city threads. Because of server change in wowturkey. We are fixing them.

Btw, Did you checked Ankara - Balgat Business District (http://www.skyscrapercity.com/showthread.php?t=262487)? I have also posted some various updates about the current projects in the city. Check the first 3 pages of the forum. I haven't updated categorised list yet.

Also I will post some new pics from Çankaya in our main Ankara Thread. But unfortunately, it is not possible to take shots from very impressive corners of Çankaya as there are lots of diplomats living in apartments in Çankaya.

Nice pics from this Business district, although Ankara has some better buildings to present. Actually, Ankara is a very interesting case and besides Cankaya / Doikmen Valley complex I also like the Prime Ministry Towers. I believe they may be the best twins in Turkey, more elaborate than the TATs and the Sabanci Towers.

OK, since this is not an Ankara thread, click in the list below to see some of my favourite pictures that I salvaged from your posts:

-Ankara Dikmen Valley (http://briefcase.pathfinder.gr/download/gm22633/32785/447797/0/Ankara+-+Dikmen+Valley.jpg)

-Ankara Canpark Towers (http://briefcase.pathfinder.gr/download/gm22633/32785/447798/0/Ankara+Canpark+Towers.jpg)

-Atakule Tower vicinity (http://briefcase.pathfinder.gr/download/gm22633/32785/447800/0/Ankara+panorama+1.jpg)

and of course:

-Prime Ministry Towers (http://briefcase.pathfinder.gr/download/gm22633/32785/447799/0/Ankara+Prime+Ministry+Towers.jpg), during construction. I think I posted all of them in a post about Ankara.

In any case, I remember Anil from wow Turkey had made a nice presentation of Ankara's Prime ministry towers a couple of years ago or something. One of the most elegant modern government buildings worldwide...

It was so some years ago, but it's no longer that way. Both the province and the city are called Mersin from now on. I got this information from one of the Turkish Consulates in the US.

Mersin was a beautiful city once, about 25-30 years ago and much earlier. I lived in Mersin until 1984. Mersin was still a lovely place then and migration/invasion from east, southeast started. It was mainly Kurdish-Turkish citizens. They started to settle outside the city and then by time spread all over the city. It is a free country and everyone is entitled to a better life where ever the better life is.

I visited Mersin in 1993 and I could not believe my eyes. The Mersin I remembered from 9 years ago had gone and destruction of the gardens, fields and the costline had taken over.

The current pictures tell me that Mersin has become just another overfast developing city, every available space has been occupied with ugly buildings without character. Some might say the truth is otherwise but I do remember Mersin with its past glory.

Kilise sayfasindan Mersin hakinda bilgiler. cok oldu ama, benim en ilgimi cekenleri kesip koydum sadece.

Tüm evler Tanzimat sonrasında çıkan ve yeni yapılan inşaatlarda uyulması gereken kuralları belirten Ebniye Nizamnamelerine göre yapılmışlardı. Evler genellikle taş ve bağdadi şeklinde olup tek veya çift katlıydılar. Zenginlere ait büyük yapıların taşları yelkenlilerle Lazkiye'den getirilmiştir. Yerleşim, ızgara planlı olup limana dikey veya paralel uzanan ve şehrin nefes almasını sağlayan geniş caddelerden oluşmaktaydı

Dünyaya açık bir liman olması, halkının bir kısmının Avrupa ve Lübnan ile olan ticari ilişkileri sonucu, şehir yaşantısına Avrupai bir görünüm gelmiştir. İnsanlarının giyimleri de farklı idi. Şehrin zengin kişileri, özellikle yaz kıyafetlerini Avrupa'dan ve Beyrut'tan getirirlerdi. Orta tabakanın hakim olduğu huzurlu bir kent idi Mersin. Değişik ırk, din ve mezhepler sebebiyle adetler de değişikti. Bilhassa düğün ve cenazelerde bu durum daha belirgindi. Şehirde Türkçe'nin yanısıra, arapça ve Fransızca da konuşulurdu
kendini yeniden dünyaya acmasini umuyorum

1881 yılı Osmanlı İmparatorluğu kayıtlarına göre Mersin’de 20.007 müslüman, 1.152 rum-ortodoks, 440 ermeni, 297 katolik bulunmaktaydı. 1890 yılına ait başka bir kaynakta ise Mersin’de ki nüfus: 5240 müslüman, 2700 rum-ortodoks, 800 ermeni ve 260 katolik olarak verilmektedir. Gene bu tarihte Mersin’de 1 cami, 3 rum-ordokos kilisesi (şimdiki Zafer Çarşısının yeri olan Aya Yorgi kilisesi, şimdiki Aziz Mikail ve Cebrail’e adanmış kilise, Osmaniye mahallesindeki Aya Nikola Kilisesi, şimdiki camisi), 1 ermeni kilisesi (Yoğurt pazarının 150 metre kuzeyinde Kuvayi Milliye Caddesinden az içeride bulunmaktaydı), 1 latin katolik kilisesi, 1 maroni kilisesi (latin katolik kilisesine yakın şimdiki camisi) ve bir de amerikalıların yönettiği, Maroni kilisesinin karşısında protestan kilisesi bulunmaktaydı. 1896 da Büyük Hamam’ın karşısında bir Ermeni Katolik kilisesi ve 1898 yılında Yeni Hal ile Salim Güven okulunun bulunduğu yerde bir Ermeni protestan kilisesi inşa edilir. Musevilerde 1906 yılında şimdiki Soğuksu caddesinde bir Havra açarlar. Bunların yanında Katolik kilisesinin iki okulu, Rum ortodoks kilisesinin üç okulu, bir ermeni okuluyla, arap hıristiyanların da bir okulu mevcuttu. Bunların yanında bir o kadar da Türk okulları bulunmaktaydı.
I.Dünya Savaşı ile gelen, önce ingiliz sonra Fransız işgalinin ardından başlatılan bağımsızlık savaşları sonucunda, Mersin'in sosyoekonomik yapısında önemli değişiklikler oldu. Savaş koşulları nedeniyle bir kısım Türkler'in cepheye gitmesi veya göç etmesi, bazı Gayrimüslimler'in kentten ayrılması, Rumlar'ın ise mübadele sonucu Yunanistan'a gitmeleri, nüfusu büyük oranda azaltmış, yakın geçmişteki ekonomik dinamizm kaybedilmişti, uluslararası ticari ilişkiler istenilen düzeyde değildi. Şehirdeki katolik nüfusta da ciddi düşüşler görülmekteydi.

Olay çatı olayı. Eski Mersin yapılarına bakıldığında hepsi çatılı ancak şehir engellenemeyen bir şekilde göç nedeniyle büyümek zorunda kalınca çatısız, çirkin beton yığınları ile doldu. Aşağıdan o kadar da kötü görünmüyor ama, planlı bir yapılaşma mevcut.

Yanlış hatırlamıyorsam birinci körfez savaşı öncesi kent inanılmaz bir gelişim içersindeydi ve çok büyük bir sanayi başkenti olma yönünde ilerliyordu, gökdelen ise yatırımcılar tarafından ileriye yönelik yapılmış bir öngörü sonucu inşa edilmişti ancak durumun kumar olduğu ve kaybedildiği savaş sonrası anlaşıldı. Kent hem kaybettiklerinin hem de doğudan gelen göçlerin yaralarını hala saramıyor. 1900'lü yılların başında nüfusunun önemli bir kısmını gayrimüslimler oluştururken günümüzde kentin nüfusu 800.000'i devirmiş, bu oran %50 Kürt kökenli vatandaşlarımız ve %50 Türk kökenli vatandaşlarımıza kadar çıkmış durumda.

Çukurova Çukurovayken bu ovanın tarım ürünlerinin ticareti Mersin'de kurulan limandan yapılıyordu. Ticaret çok gelişmişti. Yani sanayiden ziyade tarıma dayalı ticaret ile gelişti. Bu 52 katlı Mertim otel binası da o dönemde yapıldı, 1987'de zannedersem. Ama ne çukurova kaldı ne tarım Türkiye'de ne de Adana'daki pamuk, tekstil sanayii. Bossa diye Türkiye'nin en büyük tekstil firmalarından biri vardı Adana'da ki bu firmalarda Mersin ve iskenderun limanlarını kullanıyorlardı. Turizmle ilgili de bi girişim olmayınca Mersin geri planda kaldı.

As far as I know, it is the biggest and busiest port of Turkey. The whole export of Çukurova (also Harran) is done via there. The railways and highways also make Mersin the ideal center of logistics.

^^ it is orginally Greek word. Limani is turned to Liman in Turkish. Because of Turks learned the navy from Byzantians , many words in Turkish about this issue are Greek. also name of the most of the fishes and some wind names ect ect...

Founder of first Turkish navy was Çaka bey who has been enslaved by Byzantians and lived and learned sailing in Constantinople. Later when he has got free , founded his own naval forces and establish his own state in Izmir. But later Seljuk Sultan, Kılıj Aslan I murdered him because he got strong and was independent.

Anlatsana Mersin'i nasıl buldun vs.

öncelikle saat geç oldu, ve kafa biraz iyi o yüzden özet mahiyetinde anlatmam gerekirse.

Genel olarak Mersin'i İzmir, Antalya arası karma birşey olarak buldum, yani biraz İzmir'i, biraz da Antalya'yı hatırlattı bana. Her Türk şehri gibi çarpık kentleşmeden nasibini almış, bir yanda modern binalar, bir yanda dökülen apartmanlar. Ancak şöyle bir güzellik yapmışlar; sahil şeridi hakikaten güzel, yürü yürü bitmiyor, ve sahil boyunca güzel kafeler, parklar. Ama ilgimi çeken bunlardan hiç birinde oturup bir bira içemiyorsun, ona da telafi olarak sahil şeridinin gerisindeki yol boyunca çeşitli barlar publar var, her ne kadar denize biraz uzak kaçsa da gayet güzel olmuş. (ama o çatılardaki su depoları, gerçekten olmamış, bi çare lazım).

Dikkatimi çeken bir başka şey de; her adım başı camii yok, ayarını iyi tutturmuşlar, İstanbul gibi işin b.kunu çıkarmamışlar.

Fazla vaktim olmadı etrafı gezmeye, o yüzden de, kameramı götürmeme rağmen pek fotoğraf çekemedim, ancak ilerde sırf tatil amaçlı gelmek isterim.

Şimdi gelelim asıl meseleye, (:D), İzmir naam yapmış güzel kızlarıyla, haklı olarak, ancak üniveristedeki Mersinli hatun kişisi arkadaşlardan bilirdim Mersinli kızların hoş olduğunu ama şunu abartmadan diyebilirim ki, Mersinli hatunlar hakikaten İzmir'le yarışabilir, hatta belki geçebilir bile (ben esmer severim, her ne kadar baya çakma sarışın olsa da etrafta). En kısa sürede tayinimi istiycem Mersine :tongue2:

Diğer noktalara gelecek olursak; cezeriye olayına girmeye cesaret edemedim, etraftaki bu hatunlarla tecavüzcü çoşkun moduna girebilirim :D, tantuninin hası Pozcu'da Melek Tantuni'de (yaprak tantuni halt etmiş), tavsiye ederim, yağlı et sevmiyorsanız biftk isteyin, tantuni diiyince Ankaradaki gibi yağsız et gelmiyor, yağsız et için biftek istemek gerek, bi de yanına acılı şalgam, oh suyundan da koy (acı güzel de masa başı işim var oturmam lazım diyorsanız getirdikleri yeşil biberleri yemeden önce iki kere düşünün).

Ulaşım olayına gelince, klimalı minibüs-dolmuşlar var bol bol, daha ne diim, İ.Melih'e selam olsun millet balık istifi gitmiyor.

Ha ulaşım demişken; Mersin VİF'in neoplan otobüsüyle Ankra'dan Mersin'e gayet güzel yolculuk yapılır, herifler sürekli beslediler bizi yol boyunca, poğaçalar, çörekler gırla.

birkere pozcunun kaldırımları berbatt

Falla, hiç dikkatimi çekmedi :naughty:

Neyse tostlar, yaklaşık 12 saat sonra Antepe doğru yol alıyorum, ordanda bir rapor sunmaya çalışacam :)
