Last week, Thomas Thomsan requested us to chose a video representing our culture and to determine the reasons why we choose it. This was the first time that I watched and selected a video on "youtube" for an educational aim. Furthermore, it was very good experience doing something different for educational purposes, in my opinion. So, I have found this video effective enough in terms of reflecting Turkish culture. I hope you like the it. While watching this video, you can see most of important symbol representing Turkish culture. These symbols are;
arthitectural building for instance mosques (not only mosques but also churchs), castles, palaces, museums, bridges, Maiden's Tower
natural cultural remains such as Cappadocia, Sculptures in Nemrut
horses having important role in the life of Asians
see the cultural turkish dance called "halay"
some traditional musical enstruments such as "davul" and "zurna"
conventional clothes
both urban and rural areas
sports such as rafting, camping, climbing, surfing, skiing
traditional tournament called "oil wrestling"
a kind of cat having one blue and one green eyes called "Van cat"
different sources of income such as fishery, silk, industrial factories
national plane firm called Turkish Airlines being famous in worldwide
Turkish foods such as "döner"
a slice of villagers' lives
how to make Turkish carpets and ceramics
whirling dervishes called "semazen"
modern arts demonstrating in turkey such as theater, opera, ballet
memorial cemetery of Ataturk ,who has founded Turkish Republic, and flag of Turkey
