Izmir #4

Hello !
Today I tell you about historical fire and some attractions in Izmir.

On 13 September 1922, a great fire broke out in the city, lasting until 17 September. Disaster completely destroyed Greek, French and Armenian district. From 10000 to 100000 people died.  This happening ended the Greco-Turkish War (1919-1922).


In Izmir, it is really good to see Clock Tower. It's adorable marble tower in the  Konak district, 25 meters high. The tower was designed by French architect Raymond Charles Père in 1901. 


It's also good to look over Asansör, historical building. It was built in 1907, on top of Asansör is one of the most famous restaurants in Izmir.



I hope you like my post :)
See you soon!
