Ballı Kayalar - 3



This weekend, on Saturday, we went to Ballı Kayalar (means Honey Rocks), and it was great. It is s about 45 minutes outside of the city (on the Asian side). Actually the road, especially cherry time, passing in the middle of Cherry Orchards - it's really pretty incredible. In any case, there's a beautiful canyon, and a great spot to have lunch and also to make picnic too. And some of hikers were there for rock climbing. It was enjoyable to watch them. Climbers of varying abilities. There was also some treking groups too, but the path was not for me, especially for my vertigo, I didn't want to take a risk by walking with them up the rocks. We stayed around the creek and had a nice breakfast with coffee and sage tea. But of course, even if you're not climbing, it is great and nice to escape from the city.
