With its high mountain ranges, remote plateaus,
lakes and river beds splashed with colour, plus
some of the best Turkish architecture anywhere,
Eastern Anatolia brings history to life. Sivas,
Divrigi, Erzurum, Battalgazi, Harput, and Ahlat,
allcities in this region, were important centres
of Seljuk art. In Eastern Anatolia are the cities
of Agri, Bingol, Bitlis, Elazig, Erzincan,
Erzurum, Hakkari, Kars, Malatya, Mus, Tunceli,
Van, Ardahan and Igdir, while in the southeast are
the largercities of Adiyaman, Diyarbakir,
Gaziantep, Mardin, Siirt, Sanliurfa, Batman,
Sirnak and Kilis. Travelling around the east is
more challenging, with huge distances between
towns, extremes of climate and fewer facilities,
but this is amply compensated bythe remote beauty,
relatively unspoilt scenery and of course
hospitality of the people.
