CUNDA ISLAND
A place where the endless blue and eternity of the sea covers the visitors as they do the island, where the calm green of pine and olive trees encircles the callers...


From yellow to orange, from orange to cyclamen, where the mother nature shows her magic on every sunset...

A place called Moshinos by the Greeks before the establishment of the Turkish Republic, which means "Fragrant Island"...
The "Alibey Island" or "Cunda Island" of present day…

Embraces those, who want to achieve bodily as well as mental inertia and to enjoy sea in the summer or a little relaxing escape from the city in the winter...

With oriel windowed houses, rough cobblestone pavements and quite narrow streets, where Greek, Cretan and Turkish can be heard simultaneously, the Cunda Island awaits his visitors to fascinate with its spirit reflecting the common culture of Aegean...
WHILE YOU ARE IN CUNDA ISLAND, WE SAY "DON'T LEAVE CUNDA"

Without hiring a small boat and enjoying the bays
Without swimming in Patricia' natural bays which you can arrive by following the road on the old mill and passing through the olive plants. Without drinking water which is believed healing from the old fountain
Without spending a day in the pine smelling camping area
Without watching the sunset in the Lovers' Hill
Without tasting a breakfast in the "Taş Kahve" early in the morning
Without setting free the rover inside you in the norrow streets visiting the churchs which reflect the history of the island
Without making some little trips to nearby places like Çandarlı, Ören, Burhaniye and Asos
Without tasting the location specific meals prepared with special Aegean herbs and delicious olive oil

Merhaba gurkan

Fantastic repetition of the rectangular shapes of the 4 windows, with the solitary vertical door, breaking the pattern nicely. Good colour & sharpness, too. Tfs!

Merhaba Gürkan bey...
Eskiler yaşamasını biliyormuş kim ne derse desin, sıkışıp kaldık şu betonların içinde, güzel bir kare, renk ve detaylar harika olmuş...

Merhaba Gurkan

I like these houses, of these colors.
I like the part of the old city,
they have histories, and your look is very different
and beautiful. The texture is wonderful!
A beautiful close and capture!
Congratulations.
