http://www.TravelsWithSheila.com It was off and running through Diyarbakir, the unofficial Kurdish capital of Turkey. This is a city that has been continuously inhabited since its founding, and evidence of human settlement dates back to 11,000 B.C. In good times, Travels With Sheila can envision a travel agent coming up with boat excursions from Diyarbakir all the way down the Tigris River to Baghdad. Why Not! City walls, Syrian Orthodox Church of Virgin Mary, getting lost in the labyrinth of the old city quarter, the Four-Legged Minaret, Mosques, Deliler Han/Caravanserai...I'm not kidding about speed walking through all of Diyarbakir's considerable sights...
