batman is in the east of turkey where there is terror problems, i wouldnt want to go there and i am turkish..

please dont go there!

also in the east family rules are really very strict i dont know did you hear anything about brothers kill sisters because they slept with somebody without marriage many more other things aswell!



I think you are overreacting and make generalisations. Yes, honor killing occurs in the east. But not only there! Yes, there are problems with PKK, but then don't go to Marmaris, Istanbul and Antalya as well, or to London, Madrid, Indonesia, Thailand, Nepal, Morocco and several places more where also is terror threatening. I don't say you should neglect warnings, but don't pretend on every corner of the street gunned men are waiting.

i cant believe you guys you are trying to hide things we are not trying to advertising our country for tourism at the moment just helping somebody who will soon go there and disappoint also you cant compare batman to terror atacks in london or istanbul or any safety place terror atacks can be in anywhere in the world i am talking about pkk is living there, it means always there!

I do not ignore, there are certainly places I won't go (Siirt and Sirnak for example). But I do not make it bigger as well.
