Silk Travel Guide
By Cengiz Selçukon August 16, 2020
We are in İpek, the beautiful city of Kosovo and the Balkans. he has many names. We call it Silk. Albanians say Peja, (Peya) Serbs say Pec (Pech). Waiting for its visitors in a hidden corner of Kosovo, İpek creates a beautiful route with its green nature, clean air, historical past and local flavors.. We had the chance to explore this city built on the skirts of Rugova Canyon for a short time and we prepared İpek Travel Guide.. (Silk : Albanian: Peja or Pejë; Bosnian: Peć; Serbian: Peć / Пећ; Ottoman Turkish: ايپك).
While wandering in its streets and bazaars, seeing and exploring many items from our own country The city of Ipek, which we are not strangers to, is just like an Anatolian city.. If you came to my blog with this page for the first time, you should definitely see the Prizren Travel Guide notes.. For the city built by the Lumbardhi river, let’s look at Silk History, Where is Silk, Where to Stay in İpek?, What to Eat in İpek?, Places to Visit in Silk, respectively, under the headings below. :
Silk History
12 in the Silk Region. It has an important place in Serbian history as it is the place where the patriarchate of the Serbian Orthodox Church, which was founded in the 16th century, was founded.. First placements 6. and lived with Slavic migrations in the 7th century. Ottoman domination in the region started the Kosovo War in 1389.. However, it was confirmed from various sources that non-Muslim Turkish settlements (such as Hungarians) were in the region before this date..
The independence of İpek and Kosovo, just like Prizren, was the result of wars in the region as a result of the disintegration of Yugoslavia.. The Sanjak Region, which is still within the borders of Serbia and where the largest Muslim population in the Balkans lives, is very close to this city..
Another information about the history of silk is that there are heirloom structures from the Ottoman Empire in the city.. Mosques, bazaars and other Ottoman traces continue to make it our city.. İpekli Tahir Efendi’s hometown is İpek, the father of our national anthem poet Mehmet Akif Ersoy..
How to go to İpek?
The most convenient option to reach İpek from our country is to use Pristine Airport, which is the only airport in Kosovo.. There are regular flights from Istanbul to Pristine.
The most practical solution for transportation from the airport is to rent a car.. As a solution, you can rent on the Sixt rent a car website with options starting from 25 Euros per day.. For public transportation to Ipek, you can take a taxi (15 km) to Pristina, which is close to the airport, and use the buses departing from the bus station there (see: Pristina bus station).. Ipek is close to cities such as Tirana, Skopje, Pristina, Prizren, Podgorica and Belgrade.. Most itineraries form a tour that includes these cities. You can also think of a similar route, determine your outbound or return route through Kosovo and make a plan covering different countries within 3-5 days.
Our route started with Pristina and was in the form of Prizren, Peç, Sarajevo, Mostar, Kotor and Tirana. Just be careful when creating your route, you can cross from Serbia to Kosovo territory, but not from Kosovo to Serbia. Unfortunately, the post-war problems between the two countries are not completely resolved.. Therefore, just in case, Serbia should not be included in your itinerary.
We used a private vehicle for the visit.. However, according to the information we learned, it takes 50 minutes bus ride to
Gjakova, 2,5 € Pristina – 1.5 hours bus ride, 4 € Prizren – approximately 2 hours bus ride 4 €. If you are in the city, you can use a taxi, as far as we learned, there are no scary prices..
Where to Stay in İpek?
When you spend 2 days with a night’s accommodation in İpek, you will have fully explored the city.. We can specify the center of İpek as the place marked as Bazaar Of Peja (Silk Bazaar).. Accommodation option close to this area will provide you with transportation advantage..
Hotel Cardak, Hotel Korza, Gold Hotel, Stone Bridge Guesthouse, Hotel Seraphine Plaza and Hotel Dukagjini are prominent accommodation establishments in the city.. For price inquiries and reservations, you can make a reservation by using the search engine Agoda Hotel Search.
Dining at İpek
We say you won’t go hungry in Kosovo. İpek owns this discourse with praise.. Not only in İpek, but also in the Balkan lands, there are many options suitable for our taste.. Let our starting point be sweet then. For those who will ask why, it is an indispensable element like the main meal in a sweet meal in the region.. There is a menu without soup, but not without dessert..
Ëmbeltore Adriatik : We say dessert and start with dessert. The family business, operated for 3 generations since 1974, has the honor of being the sweetest patisserie of İpek.. The patisserie shop run by my wife’s Uncle Asim is a good opportunity for you to try local flavors.. While Smokvica, Baklava and Frigo are the prominent flavors, I should mention that the best boza of İpek is produced here.. While you’re here, don’t forget to send our greetings from Turkey Google Location : William Walker no. 22, Pejë
Era Restaurant: One of the most beautiful restaurants in İpek with city view Era. It has a wide menu from fish to kebab accompanied by the view of İpek from the hill.. Era Google Location: 12 Qershori 1999, Pejë 30000
Shtepia Alpike Ranch: There is another location, Shtepia, located on a hill overlooking the city.. What distinguishes the venue, which has a similar concept to the above Era, is that it covers a park with Adventure events..
The Coffee House Peja: As the name suggests, The Coffee House, which is a coffee shop, can be considered as a place to take a rest after taking a short tour in the bazaar.. You can use it not only as a coffee, but also with an oven and various cuisine menus.. The Coffee House Google Location: Sheshi Haxhi Zeka, Pejë
Art Design : Sometimes an image can change a lot. Art Design can make you happy with a pleasant meal as the restaurant that stands out with the design of the region.. Art Design Google Location: Adem Jashari, Peja
Kulla e Zenel Beut: Next is the restaurant with the most reviews in the city. Being one of the most commented places may cause you to choose this place.. Speaking of food options, Ipek has a beer named Peja (pronounced peya) named after her.. You can see it in many places in the city.. You are in the city suitable for tasting.
Places to Visit in İpek
We have listed the places to visit in İpek below, in order.
Bayrakli Mosque (Xhamia e Pejës)
One of the most important works of the Ottomans in İpek. 15. The mosque, which was built in the 19th century, was under restoration by TIKA, the institution of our country, during our visit.. Construction of the Mosque II. It is known that it was dedicated to Mehmed the Conqueror.. It is also called Çarşı or İpek/Peja Mosque.
Peja Orthodox Church (Orthodox Church of Peja)
We mentioned at the beginning of the article that the region has a historical importance by the Serbs.. And this element is 13 to 14.. It is the Orthodox Patriarchate established in the region between the centuries. The Patriarchate and its ruins are on the UNESCO World Heritage list and are under protection..
Silk Bazaar
Silk Bazaar is one of the most crowded places in the city as a bazaar where jewelers and retailers are located on the lower floors of 2-storey buildings, just like the bazaars we see in Anatolian cities.. At the other end of the bazaar, Çarşı Mosque (Bayraklı) will greet you.. I think the only thing that will bother your eyes here will be the electrical cables running along the street..
If you ask what to buy from İpek or Kosovo, we are sure that you will find something in this bazaar..
Rugova Canyon
If you are in Kosovo and the city of İpek, we definitely think that you are in a plan for the Rugova Canyon. Rugova İpek, a river canyon in the Albanian Alps on the border with Montenegro, is one of the must-see places.. With a length of 25 km and a depth of almost 1000 meters, it is among the widest not only of the region but also of Europe.. You will see countless natural beauties along the M9 highway that runs through the canyon..
We recommend that you stop by the Tourist Information Office and get detailed information before you set off.
White Drin Waterfall (Ujëvara e Drinit të Bardhë)
North of Silk In the Rodac region close to the M106 highway, there is a waterfall of the same name, the source of the Dirini river.. There are many touristic establishments and restaurants on the river.. Drin Waterfall Location

The island’s second largest city, Plomari, is and places that manage to stay away from the negative effects of urbanization due to its geographical location..

Plomari Square

The place where ouzo and olive oil soap were first produced

Within the Greek islands, 19. Turning into one of the most important centers of industry, commerce, production and maritime trade in the mid-century, Plomari is also the place where the Greek national drink ouzo was first produced.. Today, just like raki, the quality of ouzo is measured by the water used.. Since Plomari has the best quality drinking water sources in the geography of Greece, the aroma it adds to ouzo is noticed everywhere.. There is no production today, except for a few ouzo workshops.. Plomari, with its beaches and cultural tourism, is a region where European, American and Turkish tourists spend more time in high season.. Since it is not very well known, the region, which is not crowded and uncomplicated, is ideal for those who want to relax and have a peaceful holiday. Ouzo, which he throws, is consumed in a similar way in coffee houses today.. Drinks thrown together while playing backgammon or chatting with friends accompany the pleasant conversation.. Unlike Turkey, the coffeehouse culture in Greece also includes the offering of liquor.
ouzos produced in Plomari
Because of the ouzo production, it is between Lesbos and Plomari. there is serious competition. What makes the cute town one step ahead of this competition is the quality water source and the qualified anise grown in the region with aromatic plants.. It is possible to count Pitsiladi, Yannaçi, Varvayani and Plomari/Isidoro Arvaniti among the ouzos that have become brands in the town.
Things to do in Plomari
The so-called ‘old town’ in the center of the town, which is one of the oldest settlements on the island, is where you can witness typical Greek architecture.. Two-story, bay window, mostly wooden houses line the narrow streets.. It is essential to enjoy walking among the historical houses on quiet and calm streets without traffic noise and to breathe the atmosphere of the town.
There are many shops, shops and coffee houses around the big plane tree in the city square.. After wandering the streets, it is quite enjoyable to relax, have a drink and chat with the local people.
The beaches, each carrying the blue flag, which are chirpy in the summer season, are an unforgettable experience for those who love sea, sand and sun holidays.. Agios Isidoros Beach is shown among the few beaches not only in the region but also in Greece.
Oceanis Cafe
Make sure to try frappe, one of the cold drinks consumed by the Greeks.. Iced coffee, which is prepared by adding milk and sugar according to preference, is available in cafes and coffee houses in every corner of the town.. One of my suggestions is the Oceanis Cafe, where we sit to drink frappe with its stylish design.. Souffle is around 3€, waffle is around 4€, frappe is around 2€, Turkish (Greek) coffee is around 1.5€.. When you sit in all restaurants and cafes, a large glass of water is offered free of charge.. Get immersed in life by sitting in the cafes that stretch towards the beach and the port.
There are 3 different museums in the town that appeal to enthusiasts. Varvayianni Ouzo Museum, Lomari Isidoros Arvanitis Ouzo Museum and Soap Museum are must-sees to see the most important production tools for this town.. The hospitality and warm welcome at the museums make people happy.

There are nearly 25 accommodation options in the charming town.. Among these places that can be preferred according to the budget and accommodation concept, there is also a hostel, a luxury studio.. So before you go, decide exactly what kind of place you want to stay.. I stayed at Frini Studios on my trip to Plomari.

The Mytilene-Plomari Road
How to get to Plomari
<
Plomari is 42 km from the center of the island of Lesvos.. Due to the nature of the road, this journey takes approximately 50 minutes by private vehicle.. In order to go to this town from Turkey, it is necessary to take a ferry from Ayvalık to Lesbos.. After the ferry ride that takes 1 hour and 15 minutes, the port of Lesbos is reached.. There is a municipal bus service between Mytilene and Plomari that runs 3-4 times a day.. However, without the hassle of the city bus, choose a pleasant journey by renting a car and being included in the nature view.
Plomari with its unspoiled nature, friendly people, historical structures, magnificent beaches, ouzo, olive oil and soap >, one of the most beautiful corners of Lesbos. Those planning a trip to Mytilene should spend a few days in this beautiful town.
After our tiring and intense trip to India, we got out of the chaos and arrived in Nepal, where we said “oh there is a world”. We had a comfortable journey to Kathmandu, the capital of Nepal, with a 55-minute flight from Varanasi.. Nepal is 3 hours 20 minutes ahead of Turkey and 15 minutes ahead of India.
From Victoria Subirano’s book named A teacher in Kathmandu so that you can get an idea before you come to Nepal. you can watch the movie “A Mirror in the Sky” which he freely inspired. It is the film that reveals how the education system in Nepal works, poverty and mysticism.
Kathmandu is located in the valley at the confluence of the Vishnumati and Bagmati rivers.. There are dozens of temples hidden between its streets.. While it is difficult to breathe from the exhaust fumes in its narrow streets, it is certain that you will discover many things in the company of colorful shops, peddlers, bookshops and local people.
A blend of 2 religions, It is very possible to see that Buddhism and Hinduism coexist in the country where it is intertwined, and this unity is reflected even in objects and temples.. Whether Buddhist or Hindu, everyone can easily perform their daily rituals according to their religious beliefs.. There are enough temples in the city. Someone who goes to work or wanders around the streets completes his prayer by ringing the bell in the tiny temple on the street and applying the red paint inside the temple to his forehead.. A person who has prayed has red paint on his forehead. When you see this, know that that person has prayed. Let’s not forget that the main element of flower worship. During the worship we witnessed in temples, they offer flowers to their gods and light candles.
We were surprised that the fruits we ate did not taste salty, although agriculture is the livelihood of the country.. Especially when we say that the banana is disgusting that we have not eaten in our life, we say it’s like straw, we ate a banana that tasted just like that.. We got our Nepal visa quickly and very easily at the airport for 25 USD (15 days). They came to meet us because our hotel had a pick-up service.. We arrived at our hotel without the need to take a taxi.
We wrote the details and places we visited in separate sections to be more descriptive.
But first, let’s list the must-haves and some information you need to know for those who are considering coming to Nepal:
Take a mask. Too much air pollution in the city. If you don’t want to walk in dust and smoke, take your mask.
Bring walking shoes. The roads are very bad and dusty.. If you don’t want your nails to get dirty, wear sneakers.
Those who come to Nepal by plane should get a free map from the airport.. The map you will get from the hotels is not very descriptive and guiding.
Visit the bookstores in the Thamel area. There is a wide variety of books, magazines and many products for anyone interested in books, not just travelers.
Buy LP-Nepal. If not, you can find it in Thamel.. But those who do not want to buy definitely need a guide in the temple areas.. But for me, the temples and the figures carved on the temple do not mean anything, if you only want to take pictures of them, you do not even need a guide.. They charge up to 100 rs from tourists, don’t give more than 25 rs. For your information! Locals don’t like discounts in Kathmandu.
. If you are going to shop, know that they sell you exponentially more expensive.
Although not everywhere, 25% tax is charged in many restaurants and cafes.
Have dinner at Northfield Restaurant in the Thamel area.. There will be a pleasant dinner next to a cozy wood fire accompanied by Nepali music.
Entrance fee to all Durbar squares.
Kathmandu Durbar Square : 750 rs.
Bhaktapur Durbar Square : 1100 rs.
Patan Durbar Square : 500 rs.
Eat jujudhav yogurt in Bhaktapur. We should have paid 25 rs for 3 yogurts, but because we are tourists we paid 150 rs
Eat Daal Bhaat. It’s like Indian Thali.
Eat Momo. A dish resembling a tibetan dumpling. Vegetable, buffalo meat, chicken options are available. A little spicy and bitter.
During the time we were in Kathmandu, we made kora in Buddhist temples, translated mantras and sent our wishes to the universe in the fastest way, we worshiped according to God in Hindu temples :), We photographed the most beautiful examples of Newari architecture, followed closely the funerals of the cremated dead in accordance with Hinduism, practiced their rituals, respectively, Svayambhu Mahachaitya (Monkey Temple) temple, Pashupatinath Temple, Boudhanath Stupa, Bhaktapur, Changu Narayan Temple, Kathmandu and Patan Durbar Squares.
