A Turkish comedy classic that I decided to pick to illustrate Turkish culture is “Hababam Sinifi” that has famous actors such as Kemal Sunal, Tarik Akan, and Münir Özkul. This movie is about private school students that cause havoc and humor to their school.

This song is called Kuzu Kuzu and it is a Turkish pop song. The song is a classic early 2000s type of song with a dramatic music video. The song itself is pop song with Turkish traditional music influence. I was interested in this song because it reminds me of an American song and shows the connection of different cultures and that we aren’t that different. The song though has a unique style that is not popular here but with this song having 36 million views, it is a popular song in Turkey.

In Turkey, a tradition is to offer your guest, whether it is at your house, a store, or even the hairdresser, a glass of red brewed tea in a tulip shaped glass. It is a sign of hospitality and to welcome someone. It is a tradition that has been passed on for years and continues to be a way to welcome guests.

Turkey has been around since early times making its art culture historic and diverse. This certain type of technique is called marbling or called Ebru. It is believed that this technique started in Turkey and then influenced Chinese, Indian, and Persian art. Ebru is complex and very expressive of Turkish culture and Ottoman Empire influence. It is unique and draws me to want to learn and understand the meaning of the art.

Turkish architecture is rich in history and beautiful. It is influenced from the Ottoman Empire and Western European style. The mix of Islam creativity and European elegance adds a diverse and unique style to Turkey.  Grand mosques are some of the most beautiful historical landmarks of Turkey. I was drawn to the buildings because they were different and not like other cities.

Turkey has a large diversity of vegetables which shows in dishes like dolma. Dolma comes from the Turkish word “to stuff”. Dolmas are made up of different vegetables such as peppers, tomatoes, and onions and is sometimes filled with beef and rice. It is then wrapped in a grape leaf but can be made with different vegetables and in different ways.
