My Turkey Travel #3 Skiing in Mount Erciyes !

Ski in Turkey? Erciyes one of them


Turkey is hot?just a desert with a couples of camels walking by?Thats completely wrong,it just a myth from rumours that been carried by people especially typical Malaysian.In winter time you can go to various ski resort in Turkey and you can have not just skiing,also snowshoeing,dog sledding and also snowboarding.If like me,I prefer skiing cuz yah I already been skiing before and its really adrenaline to myself and in case if I'm accidentally fell down,its not cost much injury to me cuz the ground is snow,its really soft so thats why I love this sport...soft ground,adrenaline...two words in my head about skiing.

About the equipment you can just rent them from the ski resort,like me I prefer to rent cuz I didnt skiing every year so its not worth it to buy them.Their price much expensive though and the equipments are really sensitive that you have to take care always and seriously.In Erciyes Mountain one turn for lift just 4 Turkish Lira.The price is affordable and you can have couple of turns with that price.For me Erciyes Mountain slope difficulty is really optimum and its suitable for all types of skier start from beginner,recreational skier,free style skier to the expert skier.Its safe dont worry dont scare to be fall down.There are several tips if you want to be good in ski,like me I'm just good not expert enough.If you want to know you are expert,you have to be able skiing in slopes with various of trees which very dangerous,Kashmir is the perfect place for this.Like me I'm more to recreational skier.

1. Learn to balance yourself.Try to minimum your fall down movement when gliding down on the snow. 

2. Dont panic ! If you start your slope at first point and you are going faster and faster when gliding down  the slope,just relax and try to control your mind focus on your legs.  

3. Learn to play your legs,knees and waist to balance yourself.

4. If you are about to fall down,dont spread your legs or you will face serious injury with your legs.Just lower down your knees forward and lower down your upper body backward and turn your waist little bit on either side left or right and point your legs forward closely together.Then you will fall down safely.You will not injured if you fall down in this way I guarantee.

5. This experience is really same with you learn how to ride motorcycle for the first time in your life.Its about balance and speed and you will enjoy it after you already conquer that two elements. 







Okay now lets move to Pamukkale just a little bit more.Pamukkale is famous for its natural pool and ancient Roman fighting theatre.

This fighting theatre  the function is really same as Colloseum in Rome,Italy but this theatre used by Byzantium Empire(Eastern Roman Empire) while Colloseum used by Western Roman Empire and this theatre is named HIERAPOLIS.

This is the landscape of the pool which have been used by Cleopatra the famous Pharaoh of Ancient Egypt.The unique of the pool is some of the pool is cold water and some of the pool is natural hot water.On summer you could see hundreds of people relaxing in the pool. The pool is formed by natural salt formation. ***Beware of Russian scammers here especially photography people
