2012 Photography workshops by Nikos Economopoulos





Sanliurfa (Urfa), known as the City of Prophets, has a very rich and far reaching background, due to its location in the great fertile plain of upper Mesopotamia.

The old town is one of the most evocative and romantic in Turkey, with an ancient bazaar still visited by local people to buy fruit and vegetables, where traditionally dressed and scarfed Arab and  Turkish villagers arrive in the early morning to sell their produce. Much of the old town consists of traditional Middle Eastern houses built around courtyards, invisible from the dusty streets, many of which are impassable to motor vehicles.
