"God created Tenedos so people could lead longer lives" said Heredotus. Bozcaada really is an extraordinary heaven with its streets adorned with oleander, begonia and honeysuckle. It features local wines, historical fortress, clean sea and warm - hearted people...
Bozcaada's Greek and Turkish traditions have greatly influenced the island's culture. Throug the island's longtime Greek residents moved away, Bozcaada's Greek district still retains its original street plan and traditional Greek homes. The Turkish district has a completely diffrent look and feel with beautiful mosques, narrow streets, fountains and hammams.
Once you get to Bozcaada, all you may want to do is
eat some divine local food, swirl some Turkish wine or rakı and relax on the
beach or in a white - washed chair
The island’s town center is divided into Greek
and Turkish sections, referring to the groups who originally built the
districts. You’ll see a mosque and Ottoman architecture on one side and an old
church with a tall clock tower and white-washed houses like you find in Greece on
the other side.
Bozcaada is known for its Turkish wines, so you can
sample the likes of Talay, Corvus and Çamlıbağ in the city center.
Try some of the amazing local food! The island's
gastronomy reflects the culinary traditions of 500 years of Turkish - Greek
cohabitation.
Çayır Plajı, Ayazma, Akvaryum and Tuzburnu Plajı, are also good places
to take a dip in the crystalline water.
