Urfa’da Tarihle Baş Başa Bir Gün! Soğmatar & Şuayip Gezisi | Doğada yemek Molası 2

A massive tornado is heading my way right now. I wonder if the adventurer will be able to find water in this arid region? This guy is stone-bound, he told me so too. Hello, everyone. I’m looking for shade, but look, this map is old . What is this place now? It’s supposed to hit him. Wait, he sees the ball of his foot. He’s forgiven. The kids are truly cultured. Where do we begin? There are statues here. There are statues. I’m passing through a historical place, friends. History. Yes. Soğmatar, Şuayip City, Khan Elbarur, Bazda Cave, and Harran. We’ve pasted our logo, friends. I’m going to the headman of Soğuk. About a kilometer away, it’s like an abandoned village. The structures are very old. This place has that exact historical atmosphere. At the end of the road, I came to a place where silence reigned, where stones defied time. This is the Ancient City of Soğmatar. Hidden among the Tek Tek Mountains of Urfa, the ruins of a civilization forgotten by time. Yes. I’m passing through a historical place, friends. I’m immersed in history. The adventurer passes through history. The ancient city and caves of Soğmatar, located approximately 60 km from the Harran district of Şanlıurfa , have been a center of polytheistic religions considered sacred throughout history. In the 2nd century AD, it was influenced by Sabian and pagan beliefs. The region is particularly notable for its temples and reliefs dedicated to the moon god Sin. The rock-cut tombs and prayer areas in Soğmatar belonged to wealthy individuals and religious figures of the period. Their interior walls bear Syriac inscriptions and reliefs. There are also stories that Prophet Moses lived here, as well as among the locals. What’s there? There’s a sun god there. The sun god is a sun god. Yes. And Abraham sacrificed animals there. There. Yes. Come. From where? Over there. Where should I come? Over there . From behind. What’s there? There’s a statue behind. There’s a statue. Are you coming back? There’s a statue over there. That hill. What? Where are the statues? Over there. There are two places over there. There are two places. One is there. Where is the other? There. There are statues there. There are statues. What’s your name? Mehmet. Mehmet. This is his uncle. What is that? His uncle? This is Ismail. This is Ruki. This is Ismail. This is Isa. This is Mehmet. Ruki, are you Ruki’s brother? I am these. This is your brother. Okay. What is that hill? That castle. Castle. What’s his name? Okay. Jupiter Juiter Castle. Yes. I’ve heard of it for the first time. This isn’t just stone walls. This is a sky temple. 2,000 years ago, people who worshiped the moon god Sin lived in these lands. They watched the sky and attributed meaning to the stars. It’s full of caves carved into the foothills of the mountains, rock tombs, and inscriptions. Yes, there are two places here. The children described them. The children are truly cultured. They are very knowledgeable about the area. Historical sites, caves, I mean, the children are very knowledgeable about that. That’s why I say that. We can learn something from everyone . Even if it’s just a child, he says there’s a statue there. Look, where is it now? Over there. Okay. Where should I stop? Car. We can go as far as there where you drew an engine. Okay. How old are you? In 4 minutes. How old are you? 4. 4 years old. There is the well of Prophet Moses in the garden. In the garden. Yes. Okay . I’m 5 years old Okay. Let me take a look, kids. Yes. It’s like I stepped out of history, friends. Would you look over there? Everywhere is history, everywhere is made of cut stones. I think this is what they call a cave. Hello. People and sehlem. What do you mean? What does that mean? Peace be upon you. Yes. Where is this place, young people? This is Soğmatar Soğmatar. Isn’t it the village of Soğmatar? What’s here? Now can you tell me? There are statues. What statues are there ? Someone is holding a stick . Someone is holding a stone. My family was told to hit him. What did you say is here? Statues. There are statues. Yes. What? What statues? Do you know which period this place belongs to? Assyrians. To the Assyrians. Syrians. Oh, to the Assyrians. Okay, let’s go and see what we have. Come on, kids, go ahead. These are little guides with defensive throwers. I’m entering a cave. On the walls Traces of rituals, candle stains. It’s cool inside, but history is warm. There’s a silence here that draws you in. If one day the roads bring you to the unknown destinations of Şanlıurfa, don’t miss Soğmatar. Because this place isn’t just an archaeological site. It’s a sacred bridge built between history and the stars. This stone, brother, said, “I’ll hit whoever touches me with a stone.” This stick, he said, ” I’ll hit whoever touches me with a stick.” Okay. You can still read ancient Aramaic inscriptions on some walls. These writings carry the prayers of the priests and the supplications of the gods. My steps echo as I walk here beyond time. It’s as if someone is watching you, every rock, every cavity has a story. Is there another one here? There’s one on the hill. Where is this hill? On the White Hill. Okay. I’ve seen it before. Yes, friends, it’s as if I’m walking through history. This place is history, as if time has never flowed here. This is a Roman city. Time has stood still. Let me put it that way. Let me describe it that way. That’s the best way I can describe it. At the point where time stands still, the adventurer continues on his way. There is the sun god there. Where is the sun god? From there. There. Have you seen that place? Yes . Do you go to school? Yes. What grade do you go to? Two. Two. How old are you? A is fooling you. This is kindergarten. Do you go to kindergarten?

Where did you learn these? Rukiye told me now. Okay. Yes friends, we visited the caves in Soğmatar. Our route continues through Tek Mountains National Park . Our route is 16 km to Şuayip City. Peace be upon you. Thank you. How do I know you? Do you come from Adıyaman? Yes. Yes. Best regards, Thank you. Thank you. Good, by God. Thank you very much. He should ask about you. Thank you very much, we are good, brother. Good, good. I left Karahanepe this morning and am heading towards Harran. Are you going to Harran now? Yes. I guess the city of Şuayip is ahead. Just on the left anyway. Yes, on the left. After that, aren’t there caves and all that? Okay. Where are you from? I’m from here, Şanlıurfa. I mean, which village ? Akmağara. Akmağara. Did I go there? Just over there, right there. I didn’t go in there. Is there a cave there? No, we don’t have one. Is there a cave name? That’s exactly why I asked. There aren’t many trees or shaded areas around here. No. I mean, I’m looking for a place where you can rest, take a break. Do you know where here you can rest and catch your breath? You come, follow me. Let’s go home. No, not home, brother. Let’s go home. I mean, I want to sit like this for a while. Otherwise, I have time, sit down, have a cup of tea and water, that’s fine. No, I don’t have time. Just over there. No, no, thanks. Look, I guess there’s no water coming out of this place. I saw the canal over there. Do they supply canal water here? We’re already irrigating it right now. I only saw this place, but it’s green, I mean, there’s nothing beyond that canal. It ‘s bone dry. No, we just planted that place. It’s all corn. There was corn there too. Exactly. They were irrigating it now. We did all of it. We planted it. Should I share it with you too? You know what? No problem. I’m recording it on YouTube. I see it all the time. Harran. Exactly. Exactly. From here, I’ll go to Harran . I’ll go towards the center from Harran. You won’t find water here. Come home . No no, I’ll go all the way to Harran now. Okay, just drink our water. There’s water. Thank you. Thank you. No no thank you. Thank you. Just thinking about it is enough. No problem, brother. Thank you. See you soon. Allah. Thank you. Thank you. See you later. I don’t know if I was supposed to go from that village. Yes, I’m going down the field road. This is the house. I said don’t take a shortcut, but it’s not. Peace be upon you. Peace be upon you, brother. Is this the city of Master Shuayip? Yes, this is it. What happened to you? Did it break down? No, brother. I fell . Did you fall? Is there anything wrong? How did you fall? The rear brake was broken. There’s nothing wrong with the front, right? In your hand, in your hand, in your directory. No. Adventurer adventurer. Have you ever heard of it? Have you seen it on Instagram, TikTok, Facebook? Okay. See you. Thank you . Thank you. I’ll go there too. I’ll go to the Harran side. Come on, pay attention. See you. Do you know the history of this place? What’s here? I mean, the place where Prophet Moses lived. There is a place where Prophet Moses lived. Is there a cave there? Cave, there are 300, 500 caves. God, God. That many. Come on. Okay. Is there a cave around there ? Huh. Good. What are you doing? Where? How can I climb the hill? To the city of Shuaib. There is a road, brother. There is a road . Where? There is a red road right there. Brother, are you following ? Does it even go up? Yes. I know you. Do you know? Where? From TikTok. You’re following then. Yes. Good. Follow. Should I share you? Okay, brother. Okay. I never thought I’d come here . I didn’t either. Look, I’m here. Where are you from? I came with books. Did you study? Good. Good luck to you too. What’s up there now? Yes. There’s the place where Prophet Shu’aib and his daughters stayed . Okay. Yes, we’ve arrived at the ancient city of Shu’aib. That’s also a historical site. A protected area. The kids said it was the very old city of Shu’aib, the city where the prophet Shu’aib and his daughters stayed. Today, my route took me to a place dating back thousands of years in the mysterious lands of Şanlıurfa. This is the ancient city of Shu’aib. Quiet, abandoned, but the stones speak here. Peace be upon you, young people. What are you doing? We’re doing nothing. We’re doing nothing. How can you not do anything? We’re coming. In this heat. Yes. Why isn’t it hot? What’s your name? Ibrahim. Yours? Ismail . You’re Fatih . You’re Ibrahim. You ‘re Mehmet. Mehmet Emin. Are you brothers? Your car is nice. Are you brothers? These are brothers. Me and this brother and this and that brother. This is not our brother. Who are you looking for? Ha ha. I’m going to tour these caves. Yes. Shall we take you on a tour? Huh? We know these places very well, do you? Yes. We know the story of Shu’aib. Okay, here. Okay. Where do we start? Should the motorcycle stay here? No, brother. Bring it there, because kids. Put the shade. Is there shade? There’s a barn over there, by that house. Put it there . Everyone who comes puts it there . Okay, okay, let’s go there. We ‘re coming too. Okay. Every rock, every road bears a trace of people who once lived there. Legend has it that Shu’aib lived in this ancient city, and even Moses stayed here with him. This place isn’t just stone walls. It holds legends, beliefs, and traces of the past. There’s a giant underground chamber carved into a high hill . Perhaps a place of worship, perhaps a sacred space where people gather. It’s surrounded by cave dwellings, waterways, and centuries-old stone traces. Ruins from the Roman and Byzantine periods still stand. If you ever find yourself in the mountains, you should definitely visit the ancient city of Shu’aib. Because some places are not only seen, they are felt. What is there here, Ibrahim? Look, in the past, Hazrat Şahip sent all his daughters to Sogmatar. To water the sheep. They used to come late every day. One day they came early. He said, “Why did you come early?” they said, “A strong man helped us. That strong man was Hazrat Musa.” Oh. He sends his youngest daughter to call him. There’s a storm there. Yes. Your youngest daughter gets up on her skirt. The ball of her foot gets in . It becomes her halal and honor. And he gives her a stone. He says, “Take this stone and come behind me. If I go wrong, hit me with this stone.” And he has never gone wrong. He came all the way here and Hazrat Musa said to Hazrat Musa, “You shepherd with me for 8 years. I will give you my oldest daughter.” And Hazrat Musa said, “I will shepherd with you for 12 years. I will take your youngest daughter . Because she is my lawful and honorable person.” Hı hı. And he took his youngest daughter. He went to Egypt. Two people were fighting. He slapped one of them. The man died. And Prophet Moses he fled here. And Haz Shuayb tells Hz. Musa to get the staff of power inside. From here, Haz Musa takes the staff of power and the one in the middle. It sticks to his hand. He hits the wall to break it. Not 12 pieces of skin are added there too. The healing starts to flow. Excuse me, a Christian man is coming. Or is caught inside. He comes out and dies and is cut off by the water. It’s over. Hello dear friends. Today we are in the city of Shuayb. Another ancient city in Tektek Mountains National Park. Romans also lived here. You can see more Roman traces. Are there rock tombs here, Ibrahim? An old tomb. Are there old tombs here? Yes. Up there. Okay. We already heard the story of Shuayb from Ibrahim. Yes. What is this place now? The shrine of Hz. Shuayb. The shrine of Hz. Shuayb. Yes. Okay. I will tell the story of the earthquake. Yes. We have now entered the shrine of Hz. Shuayb. I told you outside. Here is the place where he hit his staff. Huh. He strikes the staff here. Yes. Then what happens? Water starts to flow, drop by drop. Yes, a Christian man comes. He stays here. The water also stops. What’s going on? It stops. It stops. Shuaib was here. Four Christians come. They say, ” Pray to your God to make the ground soft. Let us believe in you and your God.” And then they pray day and night, and their prayers come true, and they flee to the cave. Then they come to Shuaib and say, “We raised your God and him with loud voices, and then God caused a landslide, and the Christians died. Oh, right , it ‘s all over them. Okay, done. Come on. Thank you. You know, you know, when Prophet Moses strikes his staff a second time, it either falls on the numbers or enters. Because there were no doctors or nurses in the past , you would lie there. He would test you three times, take your illness, and heal you. Is that from here? What? What did you say the name of this place was? This is the cave where Hazrat Shuayb lived with his two daughters . Okay. The window isn’t sealed, do they pray here? Yes. Since our mosque isn’t two-story, women pray here on Fridays. Women pray here. Yes. Our mosque. It’s very beautiful. Yes, friends, this is the cave where Hazrat Shuayb is thought to have lived with his two daughters . The children just told us. On Fridays, the women, the women from the village here, pray here. There’s also the Khaliflex in the same place. They pray cleanly, meaning they pray. The cave where Hazrat Shuayb stayed. He lived in this cave with his two daughters. The living cave is Musa’s room. How? This is Hazrat Musa’s room. Is it Musa’s room? Yes. It collapsed because of Vahremin but. Let’s see there, kids. This place. Was this destroyed in the earthquake? Or did they dig? Did they dig? Brother, let’s get out of here. They found a big hole here and closed it off, and there are scorpions here again because of the earthquake. There are scorpions. There is. Come on, brother. Okay, let’s go. There’s a picture outside. Let’s come with that too. Okay. In the past, because there was no money, they would do different bartering among themselves. For example, you give me a deer, I give you a gazelle. And those who didn’t barter like that, there. Oh my God. There’s a dungeon. Where are they? Where? Here, nearby. There are pictures in the cave. The cave where he lived after a man . Yes, friends, we are in the city of Shu’aib. We just saw the two caves where the prophet lived with his daughters. Again, when Hazrat Musa was in the cave with his staff, water came out there. The kids told us. Where is this place? Look, this is the official cave. Look, brother , you know those 1500 caves here, this is their map. The crossed out places are dangerous. This one goes inside. A secret passage. Look, brother, this map is old, for example, the map of the t cave is here. The map of all 3500 of these places is here. Is that true? The map of the 3500 caves. Are those crossed out dangerous places? Yes. Are there any dangerous places here ? No, not here. Yes. What is the special thing about this place? Look, man. This guy is a gazelle. This guy is a deer. Did they barter in the past? Yes, they do. Yes, friends, the guy here is after the gazelle. Is he after the deer? Brother? Brother, this secret passage. Look brother, it’s a secret passage. Look brother, this guy used to say that since there were no notebooks or phones, your family said, don’t worry about me. I’m going to the safe place. I think this place is a dungeon. Look, every year when it passes, those who don’t comply with the barter are hanged here . Every year when it passes here, go out and hang those who don’t comply with the barter. Yes. Okay, okay. Yes, they have a separate section here too. There’s barter here and there . This is also a separate section, or for us, but probably a separate section. Look, can I see it? There are inscriptions here, every month when it passes, they draw a line here. I can see it every month. Come on, come on, let’s go out. Yes, our friends called. Beautiful stories here, beautiful stories in Harram. We’re listening to stories from children. Brother, there’s a closed cave there, and then from the closed cave , we go on the motorbike. When we can’t catch up, they enter through the cave. Are you talking about here? Yes. Look, be careful not to fall. There’s a door, brother. Pull out from here. From this cave. Yes, is this a water well? Yes, this used to be a seven-door cave. Look, a seven-door cave. Yes, Christians have doors from here. Yes. The place where Christianity gathered is a closed cave with seven doors, but four are closed angles. Do they keep Christians here? Yes. Look, brother, this is where you enter and exit, but it’s necessary. Yes. Is this also a seven-door dungeon? No. Ibrahim again. I wish you kids hadn’t entered. Come on, come on, come on. You go and wait upstairs. Run for the light, brother. Is there a passage there? Well, we’re exiting from here. It’s dark in here, but you can’t tell. Yes. Faysin. Okay, come on. It’s dark anyway. You can’t tell. It’s pretty big, though. Yes, this is another big cave. There are 56, maybe more sections here. Let’s get on the motorbike. Yes, dear friends, we also visited the city of Shuaib. I think there are more caves in line now . I’m tired. I’m really tired. I’m looking for shade, but I still haven’t found it. A tree, please, a tree, please come across me. Yes, friends , this is where I truly understood the value of a tree . I need a little shade, a little shade, but I can’t find it. I mean, we cut down those trees so mercilessly , those who cut them down need to come to this land and appreciate it . You see, there isn’t even a bush here. Bushes. I’ve forgotten the tree. Unfortunately, there isn’t even a bush. I think this is the biggest deficiency of this place. Trees. I’ve been talking about this since the beginning of the video . Space for vehicles, a forest. Yes. There’s a wind tornado here. You can see the dust cloud right now, friends. This is what it’s like not having trees. A huge tornado is approaching me right now. I’m behind me. That’s why I’m stepping on the tornado. You can see the dust cloud behind me right now. It’s like something out of a movie. There’s a dust cloud behind me, and I ‘m moving quickly, and a dust cloud is coming at me quickly. Because there are no trees. Yes. Because there are no trees, there’s an incredible wind, and a tornado is forming. There’s a tornado too. I can barely even talk with my helmet on right now . The wind is moving my helmet left and right. Friends, let’s plant trees. There are trees and a tornado forming. There’s a dust cloud up ahead, too. The sun is directly overhead right now. It’s around 12:30 . The weather is very hot. So hot that it feels like the sun is on my helmet. That’s how hot it is. And I’m trying to move forward in this heat. Hungry and thirsty. I’ve run out of water. Thanks to Şuvayip, the kids at his place filled it up, but it’s a bit hot. It’s still good. It’s a very, very dry region anyway. There’s global warming, climate change. Then, after a while, these places will become even more of a desert. They’ll become even more of a desert. Will the adventurer be able to find water in this arid region? Will they be able to find shade? Will they be able to find a tree? I’m very curious. There’s a dust cloud up ahead again. Another tornado. I could probably encounter another tornado. Because there’s wind in the air, a very strong wind. And it’s an arid region. So, there’s not a leaf, a tree, anything to hold the surface . The surface is completely bare. H Pış God ​
