- *DIYARBAKIR, TURKEY: The Kurdish-majority city of Diyarbakır in Eastern Turkey used to be one of the most dangerous parts of the country. Between 2016 and 2017, the Turkish military fought the PKK terrorist organization right in the center of Diyarbakır. Large parts of the Old City were destroyed during those clashes.
Due to the highly volatile situation, Western governments strongly discouraged their citizens from traveling to this region. Today the situation has calmed down and Diyarbakır is trying to become a tourist destination. And there are undoubtedly enough ancient sites for that. Join me as I explore the city’s 1000-year-old mosque, have tea in a jewelry store, check out the newly restored Armenian church, and meet the friendly locals.

Quick precision: when I said "the Kurds are originally from Iran," I meant that the first Kurds lived on the territory of modern-day Iran. Iran as a country obviously didn't exist at that point.
👍
Kurds are from ancient Medes the first Iranian people all other Iranian countries came from the Medes they are mixed with other tribes. Like English Norwegian and other people came from ancient German tribes today Germany
And Tyrks lived in Mongolia 😂
I really enjoyed watching this video. I lived in Diyarbakir for 10 years, 1978 until 1988. I walked all around this ancient city and have fond memories of Diyarbakir. It has changed and I would love to return and see this beautiful city once again. I bought some very beatuiful jewerly here and drank a lot of tea (cay). I really liked your video. Please return again and post more videos, especially inside the old city.
Thanks a lot! I am sure it was a very different place back then. Most larger cities in Eastern Turkey experienced a lot of economic growth in the 90s and 2000s, so they are way more developed now.
thankyou for making this video. i love this city also
Thank you for taking us to places that we are not meant to go to!
We generally just hear or read stuff about this region in the media - mostly negative. Love the fact that you went there and showed the human side. Great video!
Kurdistan.... With all the love from Borneo Island. Lovely video. Thanks. Looking forward to be there.
Is amed kurdistan not turkey
Ağla kukla
Thanks for the video. I used to live in the area when I was in the United States Air Force in the 1980s. The video certainly brought back memories of the people and parts of the city. I plan to return one day.
I'm from Diyarbakir, I live in Diyarbakir and video is very nice, actually, Diyarbakir has a new face, this is the west side of the city, I wish you could visit there
Hey come and explore Bursa City. Bursa was the Ottoman State's first major and second overall capital city. Bursa is llocated in the Marmara Region. Just roughly 50 minutes by ferryboat from Istanbul
I have been to Bursa twice. But that was before I made videos.
@@JackRoaming Lovely to hear that, Feel free to visit again
Could u pls change the title of your video as it is quite offensive and wrong. This is not true at all. It is one of the best city of Turkey as u see yourself there.
Im there now,got there this afternoon.
lmao.its Amêd Capital of Kurdistan
Kurds are peaceful people
they are more conservative and backward nation than turks actually and not actually peacefull they have mafia-like family in big cities in turkey (large family) and they usualy kill girls and boys out of honour and vengeance
Where is the dangerous!? 😅
From Iran? No, we are original residents of this land.
You are pashtons, so yes from iran
@@CliniK-DSi tink you must read more we live in 2024 😂😂😂
@@mederkurd1762 as you kurds say that turks are from mongolia, kurd are from iran 😂 you are not some holy race my dude
@@CliniK-DSHave nothing to say we the Kurds are the oldest Group. Older then Persians. We where the Media impeire. The name was not Iran back then. The most important thing is to day we are our own People with our own language Culture flag Nasjon. We must be free like other nasjons. Im from Iranian KURDISTAN we like to say Rojahalat. East Kurdistan by Allah we will be free. Iranian and Tyrks i swear meet lot of them look black.. i can se a Kurd from 10. 000 kilometer if he is a Kurd
@@mederkurd1762 i have alot of kurdish friends my man, some of you look afghani. Dont try to tell that your looks stands out lol.
They aren't scattered. These lands are old Iranian empire and belong to kurds and Iranians.
Hey Jack look up the Turkish banana controversy. Its a real thing and happened in 2021.
