A lesser-known destination in Turkey, known as the City of the Prophet, is well worth a visit

Şanlıurfa, a city on the border of southeastern Turkey and Syria. It is said to be the birthplace of the Prophet Abraham, hence it is also known as the City of the Prophet, and is a very unique travel destination in Turkey. My first stop in Şanlıurfa was the Balıklıgöl site (also known as the Pool of Abraham). This is a street garden in the city center, with thousands of carp in the sacred fish pond. It is said that the Prophet Abraham was thrown into a huge fire pit by King Nimrod, but God saved Abraham by cooling the flames, which is said to have happened here. The large pool in the center of the building complex was dug for fire, and the wood in the fire pit turned into the carp in the water today. Next to the pool, there is a hidden cave in the building complex, which is said to be the birthplace of the Prophet Abraham, and therefore attracts believers from all over to visit. Today, it is also a must-visit place when traveling to Şanlıurfa.
