Gemiler Island, Turkey Tours

Plan Turkey Vacation to visit this wonderfully arranged Island in a mountain-girt cove, Gemiler Island is stuffed with c.1,500 year old Byzantine remains. The island, only 1km long, has been overviewed by Japanese archeologists who have uncovered the presence of a flourishing residential area sticking to the northern shore.

Not at all like the established urban areas of the district, there are none of the average open structures, no theater, no showers, no exercise center, no colonnaded roads, no marketplace, simply a thick gathering of houses, reservoirs and four fundamental holy places.

Portrayed on Italian medieval oceanic outlines as St. Nicholas Island, Gemiler appears to have flourished as a key stop on the Christian journey course to the Holy Land. Travelers cruising to Jerusalem would put in at this safe harbor, renew water and supplies and petition God for their safe trip.

Today, one can investigate the remaining parts of these early chapels, adorned with mosaics and frescoes, find a gigantic open storage and stroll in a novel processional path up to the house of God church and the island's summit with its shocking 360-degree view.
