Trip to Turkey

   
                        TRIP TO TURKEY

Recently, at the beginning of April, we met in Besni (Adiyaman), Turkey. All of us worked together and commented the different contributions to the project and  did our presentations. We talked about our school, our town and our country and all the partners let the others know about  their traditions and culture.

Typical Turkish dance

They received us warmly with songs and typical Turkish dances. We were also received by the important people in the town. The City Governor, the City Mayor and the Director of Education. All of them were very interested in our culture, our country and Catalonia.

As our oproject is about organic food, we had a breakfast with all kind of organic products served in one of the Turkish student’s garden. People were  extremely warm and treated us wonderfully.

We visited the school. Their classes were similar to ours and there were decorations all over the place devoted to Comenius project. We decided which would be the Project logo among all those our students had made.

Next event was visiting different farms where we have been welcomed by the landowners who showed us their proceedings on organic farming.

Archaeological reminds at the Zeugma Museum

Among other interesting places, we visited Gaziantep and the amazing Zeugma Museum where you can admire great archaeological remins. We also visited historical places such as Cendere Bridge, built by the Romans. We went up to Kahta-Mount Nemrut (Commagene Kingdom) 8th wonder of the world and watched the sunset with magnificent views offered from the summit.
