A very nice video. We are in Istanbul right now and are going to Eskisehir in three days. You inspired us because Eskişehir was not planned in our trip 👍🔆
Wow! Didn't know Turkey had gondolas. What a treat. Look at you complimenting the clarinet player in Turkish. The gold statue of the futboler is really cool. That blue bridge is nice!
As an Eskişehir citizen, I am very pleased with your visit :)) The reason why we have military aircraft is that Eskişehir has one of the two largest military air bases in Turkey. (training fly etc.) But you didn't go to Sazova Park. :( Turkey's Disney in Eskişehir: Sazova.
@@hgworldtour You're welcome, Hope you come back to the "City of Universities and Theaters" :)) And winter times, Eskişehir is frozen, just like Winterfell😂
I like your Vlogs beacsue they are sooo natural and you make not only 5-6 Minutes Vlogs ... so i can enjoy it like I am there ;) Good Job and have a great time !
That statue (man in a hole) reminded me of Bratislava, Slovakia! They also have one like that 😁😁 I’ll stop, I don’t want somebody to come and tell me, “don’t compare Bratislava with that rathole” 🤣🤣🤣🤣 Excellent video guys!! I’m finally catching up on your last videos since I haven’t had the chance these last days ❤️❤️
Yes I have seen this, I think it's called the sewer worker LOL! Hahahaha it's always a touchy topic when you compare one city with another. Time always goes soooo quickly at the end of Summer! We have to watch your take on Eskisehir! I think the last video we watched was your Istanbul Kart video. We were both laughing at the yellow ticket machines, the first time we were in Istanbul I think we spent 15 minutes trying to get a Kart out of the yellow machines!
I'm glad you wandered around my hometown guys. I don't know if you heard about Efendy and Anason restaurants in Sydney. The owner of them is from Eskişehir :) And one last thing, why didn't you go to Sazova Castle in Eskişehir :(
Hello Emirhan, we are from Melbourne however when we next make it to Sydney we will need to check these out, I hope they are Turkish restaurants! We will need to visit the Sazova Castle next time! :)
Eskisehir is a very nice city known for being one of the most student-friendly cities in Turkey. They have three large universities and therefore had quite a large student population pre-covid (not sure how things are atm). Also, I believe the statues are thanks to their famous mayor (currently serving his 5th term) who himself is a vax sculptor.
Greetings Murat, yes I have heard there's quite a few students that are in Eskisehir. Thanks for letting us know about the statues, they really made the city an interesting and unique place! Thanks for watching :)
5:00 grew up in Eskisehir in the mid eighties and early nineties; the fighter jets were part of daily life and the fabric of the skies that I pretty much never paid attention.
5:14 hey gordon! I live in Eskisehir. 1st main jet base command is located in Eskişehir. That's why dozens of fighter aircrafts fly over the city everyday, some days people can't hear each other for almost half an hour. i understand you! The periodic ear-piercing screech of fighter jets overhead, Noise from the military aircraft exercises unbearable, it is annoying
Hey guys, about the F-16s i want to add something. The airbase is the main reason. However, the other reason can be the Great Offensive (Büyük Taarruz) Celebrations. It begins 26th August and the Victory Day 30th August. Have fun!
Thanks for letting us know Yusuf! We assumed there was a base near by however we weren't sure if they always flew over like this! Thanks for watching! :)
Eskisehir later became the site of Turkey’s first aviation industry, as well as an aeronautical supply maintenance center on NATO’s southern flank during the Cold War.
Hi, i want to know, is there any luggage storage in eskishir train station? I'm planning to short visit eskisehir about 6-7 hour during my trip from ankara to istanbul. A bit troublesome if i carry my luggage anywhere
@@hgworldtour no worries. I did my military service in that base in 1989-90. On the bus route to Ankara and Konya when you exit the city, you could've seen the big Eagle status. Inside the base there was also an US Airforce base. Not sure if they quit. Eskisehir is a city with blend of uni students military people and locals originally immigrated from Tatarstan. But they loose the identity with western style tourist traps like gondolas, copy cat Eiffel tower etc.. I liked your train trip to Van. 😀

Just a " blah" city, nothing like Istanbul or Izmir. Someone dares compare it to Venice in Italy, oh please. This Sehir is just more than a village. Amsterdam ? You are kidding me
What on earth are you talking about? We didn't even mention Izmir in the entire video and we only mentioned Istanbul to compare it's distance to Ankara, which is where we came from. Surely you can understand that when ANY CITY offers gondola rides a link to Venice would be made. I said it reminded me of Amsterdam AND Hamburg because of all the different types of bridges. Anyway, thanks for watching.
@@hgworldtour You didnt mention Izmir but I mentioned having been to both places ( Istanbul and Izmir ) and watching this video I can only say this Eskisehir is just a village. You can't compare Venice to any rathole that has a gondola ride,sorry.
@@ellisonevers9127 Eskisehir is a really nice and modern city, without the crazy tourist crowds of Venice. It does have a German vibe and many beautiful parks, much friendlier and kinder people than anywhere else, without the ugly slums on barren hills of İzmir too.
I have had the chance of traveling to many cities within Turkey, Aegean and Mediterranean Coasts, Black Sea Region (where I also lived) and many others near Istanbul and I must say that Eskisehir really surprised me for its beauty, is not just a “blah” city or village. It’s been one of the most taken cared cities I have been to in Turkey so far, tons of green areas, nice gardens with beautiful statues everywhere. Colorful houses, a nice river passing through Eskisehir. In fact, I regret not visiting this city way before. Also I have had the chance of traveling to many cities in Europe, and at some point my husband and I had the feeling of being walking through Ljubjana, Slovenia, with plenty of cafes along the river, then in its old markets as if we were in Sarajevo, Bosnia. Nobody is saying is exactly like those cities but some little things can remind you of other beautiful cities too like Amsterdam (mainly for its vibe). At least Eskisheir hasn’t been touched by the mass of tourism and remains intact and there’s a large group of expats living there because is one of the coolest yet underrated cities in Turkey. Not packed as Istanbul or Izmir.

Hello Furkan, nice to meet you and thanks for watching! :)
Turkish Air Force has a big Air Base in Eskisehir, hence the reason why you see those jets in the air so frequently.
Thanks for watching Nat, do they fly over like this every week? Or would this be more of a training exercise?
@@hgworldtour hello: yes training flight 👍

I'm in Eskisehir now and the jets are still flying fast and loud over the city. I bet 15 to 25 have flown over in the past 12 hours.
Beautiful video captures! You two are really a joy to watch.

Hello Efe, thanks for this update! I'm assuming this is a big event in Turkey, especially on the 30th? Thanks so much for letting us know. :)
Amazing
Thank you kindly Bashiir! :)
I guess you probably hit the training time of the air force (which is very close to Esk), unlucky :/
Thanks for letting us know Yusuf! We assumed there was a base near by however we weren't sure if they always flew over like this! Thanks for watching! :)
A city of universities and local and foreign students!
So cool
Thanks for watching! :)

Nice video

There is a trannig military airbase in the Eskişehir
Thanks for letting us know Osman! :)
Eskisehir later became the site of Turkey’s first aviation industry, as well as an aeronautical supply maintenance center on NATO’s southern flank during the Cold War.
Eskişehir is a university city with a large student population. Looks like due to pandemic many students returned hometowns for online learning.
Maybe, not sure what it was like before. Thanks for watching :)

Hey Dhani, I'm not sure to be honest. Hope you enjoy your time there! :)
why didn't you go to the sazova park and kent park?
There is an air forces base over there. Air fighters fly all the time. :)
Thanks for letting us know! :)

Eskişehir has military airbase, these are training flights :)
Thanks for letting us know. Awesome city! :)
There is an Air Force Base there.
Thanks
Just city around jet base , not unusual very close military base If you live in Eskisehir you have to get use it that noise .
Thanks for letting us know and thanks for watching!
The reason you can hear fighter planes is due to the fact that one of the biggest turkish airforce bases is located in eskisehir
Thanks for letting us know Levent! :)
Thanks for the nice video from my home town. It is actually a home for the famous poet, philosopher, and sufi Yunus Emre. Here is a famous poem by him:
The truth (God) is full in the world,
no one knows the right
If you ask it from yourself
It won't be apart from you
The one who comes to the world passes,
just like a drink of sherbet
This is a bridge crossing
The ignorant don't know it
Let's get acquainted
let's keep everything easy
Let's love, and let's be loved,
the world is left to no one
If you understand the words of Yunus,
If you listen to his poems
You need good health,
there is no one left
Let's get acquainted
let's keep everything easy
Let's love, and let's be loved,
the world is left to no one
Thanks for watching Emre! Wow thanks so much for sharing, what a beautiful poem! ❤🇹🇷
These jets flying EVERY DAY ! and it's RIDICULOUSLY and unacceptable!
It must be very annoying to listen to everyday!
Eskashair ne ya Eskişehir kardesim
