I am going to be waiting right in front of the Grand mosque (Ulu cami). It is in the center of the old town of Şanlıurfa so if you ask anyone how to get there they are most likely going to help you.
Description
Our free walking tour will be through the old town.
We will visit Balıklıgöl and Urfa fortress. Then we are going to see Fırfırlı and Salahaddin-i Eyyubi Mosque. Both mosques have been built hundreds of years ago and are quite authentic.
Then, we will walk for about 15 minutes to get to 58 square. 58 square is in the right middle of the old town and we'll see historical Urfa houses while we get there. In 58 square we'll get to see Regi Church which is also called Saint Petrus and Saint Paulus church.
If you get hungry while walking around the old town of the Urfa we can have some delicious traditional Urfa food. Urfa is known for its kebaps and other delicious dishes that you can only find in this town.
