Shortly after we arrived in Istanbul, we travelled with Gül to her little house at Gölyazı (you can read an article from Zaman that tells some of Gölyazı ‘s geography and history here). This is the place where Gül hosted summer residencies for artists from Türkiye and many other countries a few years ago and where those artists made site specific art installations, many of which can still be seen today.
It is a place to talk about art.
A place with art on the walls.
A place where most people still live by fishing.
A place where gardens are in tins.
And a place where we had some great Turkish food.
If you are anywhere near Bursa, go west until you can see Lake Uluabat on your left, then watch for the sign. Gölyazı is always worth a visit.
That is great looking food!
