Edirne is a city of history. Everywhere I went there were artifacts and mosques from the Ottoman period. The majority of them were the Grand Mosques. There was the Beyazıt Social Complex. It was probably the place that made me happiest and most peaceful. They built a place where you can study science, from a mental hospital, and it was very big. In the place where there was a mental hospital, there were water fountains. He didn't let her think. As for the prices, the shopping malls were very cheap, there were small minibuses and public buses, we used the minibuses.
