Photographer’s Note

Harran / Sanliurfa

One of the oldest settlement areas of Sanliurfa is Harran... It's history goes back to a couple of thousand years...

The soil, once, was so fertile... But the climate changes within the thousand of years gradually changed the shape of the area...

Now, a giantic irrigation project at it's final stage is going to change the scenery again to it's golden ages... The project called as GAP... The agricultural activities increased significantly within the last decade only...

If you would like to know about the historical side of the area please see my previous posting;
