The difference of our wedding cultures

2026-06-10 12:41:43 UTC

I personally think it is really interesting how different our weddings are. In Germany weddings dont have a strict plan they go after. so it can vary between a big weeding with 200 or more people and marrying only in a small circle of maybe 20 people. Some people even marry without celebrating with other. They just marry with their partner. While reading the pages from Necmettin Ayan it really fascinated me that your wedding culture is so bright and sounds so emotional. I personally once also was on a turkish wedding because my step mom is from Türkiye. It was some years ago but I still can remember how many people got invited and how friendly the atmosphere was. Also all people were so friendly and loved dancing. I think we also danced antraditional dance where we all stood in a circle and hold our hands but i cant remember much more. Maybe you can tell me what for a dance it was?

turkish tea

2026-06-10 12:45:14 UTC

I learned something new about the turkish tea. I have never tried it but I would love to because it think its probably very tastey. My favorite tea flavour is rasberry tea. Its very tastey you have to try it. But I only drink tea in the winter, because in the summer i hate drinking warm drinks. I am always open to try new sorts of tea.

Review to Georgian Culture

2026-06-10 12:51:52 UTC

I didn't know that Georgia has so much Nature and so much Culture. I didn't knew much about Georgia before I only knew the soccer Player Kvaratskhelia. I learned a bit more and I can imagine to visit Georgia someday.

Georgias nature

2026-06-10 12:55:28 UTC

What really caught me about the presentation of Geotgia was, that the culture there blends with the beautiful nature. I personally love the nature so it really caught my eye when you wrote about the landscpes and harmony of the nature. The pictures also looked really nice and rich of untouched nature. I would love to hear more about it. Like which mountain is the biggest? what national park is your favorite? or how is the nature in the bigger citys?

About the Georgian flag, answer from Isa

2026-06-11 07:54:46 UTC

isa Thank you for your interest in one of the symbols of my country. The current five-pointed cross flag of Georgia was officially adopted on January 14, 2004. However, this symbol has a much older, almost 700-year history. It has been the main sign of Georgian identity and sovereignty for centuries. Symbolism: The central large cross symbolically depicts the Savior (Jesus Christ). The four smaller crosses represent the four evangelists (Matthew, Mark, Luke and John). The meaning of the colors: The white color expresses purity and innocence. The red color symbolizes courage, love and dedication.

Georgian nature, answer to Hanne

2026-06-11 08:03:43 UTC

Georgia is a country of amazing contrasts, where a diverse nature and ancient cultural heritage are wonderfully combined in a small area. Here you can walk along the slopes of the Mkinvartsveri glacier in the morning, and watch the sunset on the Black Sea coast in the evening.
The area of protected areas (national parks) in Georgia makes up almost 10% of the country's territory. The tropical forests and swamps of Kolkheti are included in the UNESCO World Natural Heritage List.
The nature of Georgia is so diverse that you can find everything here: desert (Davitgareji), alpine zones, subtropical coasts (Adjara) and unique karst caves. And all this is crowned by traditional Georgian hospitality and cuisine.

German culture

German culture is very rich and interesting. It is called the "country of poets and thinkers." German Christmas markets are famous. I learned how Walpurgis Night is celebrated in Germany. I was interested in what "Erntedankfest" is and how it is similar to American Thanksgiving?

Turkish art and music

2026-06-11 08:28:14 UTC

Turkish art and music are rich. It combines Asian, European and Islamic styles. Famous buildings are the Blue Mosque and Hagia Sophia in Istanbul. Turkish music combines ancient traditions and modern Western styles. The most popular instruments are the saz (stringed instrument) and the ney (flute). Classical music originated in the palaces of the sultans. In old Turkish books there are small and very colorful drawings that do not have shadows. What is the name of this art direction?
