Am Rand der Städte

On the Outskirts

Settlements whose structure and appearance are completely new to Turkey have grown up in the past few years between the larger southern coastal cities. Huge high-rise residential buildings are built in a circle around a kind of park with swimming pools, meeting areas, restaurants and bars in the middle. This is where the so-called “Deutschländer” live, for the most part Turks who worked abroad for many years.
