EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the Turkish Quarter of Izmir, Turkey, nestled at the foot of Mount Pagus, also known as Kadifekale. The hillside site holds significant historical and religious importance, as it is the location of the martyrdom and burial place of St. Polycarp. St. Polycarp was a prominent early Christian bishop of Smyrna, now Izmir, who lived during the 2nd century AD. He is revered for his unwavering faith and refusal to renounce his beliefs during the Roman Empire's persecution of Christians. The image reveals the labyrinthine streets of the Turkish Quarter, with its traditional houses and narrow alleyways, as they wind their way up the hillside. The terraced houses, with their red-tiled roofs and whitewashed walls, are a testament to the rich cultural heritage of the region. In the background, the imposing silhouette of Mount Pagus looms large, its ancient castle ruins standing sentinel over the city. The photograph, estimated to date from the 1910s, offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back in time to an era of religious fervor and architectural beauty. The Turkish Quarter of Izmir remains a vibrant and bustling area, where the echoes of history continue to resonate, making it a must-visit destination for anyone interested in exploring the rich tapestry of Turkish culture and history.
