VAN: An Eastern Anotalian Province

Van and its environment had been a popular center of population because of its geographical structure, and because of reason a number of civilizations had lived here. Van used to be the capital city of Urania State. It had been controlled by Hurrines, Hittites, Persians, Meds, Seljuks and Ottomans till today.
Lake Van is the most important tourism center of the Eastern Anatolia with the Akdamar Church, the castles in the region, with its cat, and with its geography that provides many tourism activities.

Cool

Allan resimler cok guzel. Resimleri gorunce vatanimizin her kosesinin bir ayri guzel oldugunu gorebiliyoruz. Van fakir bir il olmasaydi inanki yasamak icin oraya gidebilirdim. Gercekden tabiati, daglari, golleri gercekten insani buyuluyor. Bana kalirsa van Turkiye'nin en onemli sehirlerinden bir tanesidir.
