UNFORGETTABLE Konya Turkey | Whirling Dervishes, Bazaar & Beautiful Mosques | Konya Travel Vlog!

Days 26-31 of our new life as full time travelers // Recorded from October 4th to October 9th 2021

Oh Konya.. we ended up there because we needed a convenient stopping point between the MUCH more popular Pamukkale and Cappadocia.This unexpected stop in our Turkey itinerary gave us the surprise of our lives! We got to experience life in Konya, Turkey for a week and even though we had a million internet issues in what was supposed to be a catch-up-with-work week, we LOVED our time in Konya, Turkey.

This city is incredible! People say Konya is the most conservative city in all of Turkey, but to us, it didn't feel that way AT ALL. Yes, there's no alcohol (not sold in grocery stores or restaurants, but we heard people drink A LOT at home!), but because it's a university town, there's a long of young people (that were WAY cooler than us!).

To us Konya, Turkey was the first big Turkish city we got to experience and it was amazing because they are not used to seeing tourists, so you get a taste of the local life (and a lot of curious stares).

We loved it!

We hope you enjoy this Konya Turkey Travel Vlog where we share a little bit of our daily lives but also some of Konya's most famous sites like: The Konya Bazaar, the Whirling Dervishes ceremony, eating some of our favorite Turkish foods and visiting beautiful mosques.

Let us know if you have questions about Konya or Turkey! We are always happy to help!

turks have youghurt with every meal. yoghurt is a turkish invention, the actual word yoghurt is turkish. which the world borrowed. . also dont get fooled. greek style yoghurt is a copy of strained turkish yoghurt.
another fact the greek dip Tzatziki comes from the turkish word cacik. but due the world full of turkey haters, they promote it as greek.

Do you think konya very clean city or not...?

[ramtinrezaniya]

Thanks for the perfect scenery of Konya, I enjoyed a lot.
For your information, actually Sufi People are some how independent from any religion, specially Islam.
In simple words they believe that every human being is a Holy Temple and all Sufis are trying to know their selves as much as possible and leave others alone.
There is a really fantastic and rich Novel based on truth on one of the popular Sufis in the world which has happened in Konya.
The name of the Novel is " 40 Rules of Love " and I recommend it to you if you are interested in knowing much more about Sufi and Konya.
