Middle East-The land of neverending conflict, struggle and dispute.Three weeks of Turkey, Syria, Lebanon,Jordan and Sinai, Egypt. This is where epic cities of antiquity rub shoulders and architectural aspiration.Prior to that pre-backpacking to Toscana Italia, summer 2009 will long be remembered. Predominantly an Islamic region,it is one of the most misunderstood region and religion in the world.

I like Adana kebab|

August 9, 2009

Konya to Adana

I was ready to take the famous train travel to Syria by Torros Express only to know the service still temporarily unavailable. It has been 3 years of upgrading work and no sign of when it’s going to resume. That’s left me with another bus ride to Adana then to Antakya.

Departed at 2pm and arrived around 9.30pm. I needed to be in Antakya(hatay) on the same day for border crossing to Syria. Soon I was approached by bus tout and told him I wanted to go to Hatay that night. Like everywhere else in Turkey, “no service anymore tonight” he said, always a cheeky way to use his service the next day.

I procrastinated infront of Adana kebab meal soon after that. It was very tasty ! I thought there must be bus service to Hatay because if they have overnight journey in any other part in Turkey there must one there too. And I was right.

For 18 Lira I bought the ticket departing at 10.30 an hour after arriving Adana and after a delicious Adana kebab.
