EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the breathtaking beauty and rich history of the outskirts of Yalova, Turkey, as it appeared in 1936. The image showcases a serene valley nestled between rolling hills, with the vibrant green foliage contrasting against the rugged terrain. The tranquil scene is further enhanced by the gentle curve of the river winding its way through the landscape, adding a sense of movement and life. Yalova, located on the shores of the Sea of Marmara in northwestern Turkey, has a long and storied history. Its strategic location has made it a coveted prize for various civilizations throughout the ages, from the ancient Greeks and Romans to the Ottomans and beyond. The area is known for its natural hot springs, which have been attracting visitors for centuries in search of healing and relaxation. This photograph offers a glimpse into a bygone era, transporting us back in time to a simpler, more peaceful moment in history. The outskirts of Yalova in 1936 were likely a place of quiet contemplation and natural beauty, untouched by the rapid modernization and urbanization that was beginning to transform other parts of Turkey. Today, Yalova remains a popular destination for travelers seeking to connect with nature and immerse themselves in the rich cultural heritage of Turkey.
