At The Bosphorus


Parfume advertisement... at the oldest place, "Aşiyan"... There is a cemetery that so many important and intellectual writers and people's graves are there. For example Yahya Kemal (poet), Orhan Veli (poet), Tevfik Fikret (poet), Ahmet Hamdi Tanpınar (writer), Münir Nurettin Selçuk (composer/musician), Atilla İlhan (poet), etc.
