| strong>Lake Poyrazlar, | |
| located two hours away from ?stanbul and three-and-a-half hours | |
| from Ankara, is ready to welcome visitors with all the beautiful | |
| scenery and enjoyable activities it has to offer. The lake, a | |
| protected area, is particularly popular among those going out | |
| for a picnic over the weekend. It is a wonderful getaway from | |
| the hustle and bustle of everyday city life -- a sanctuary of | |
| peace.</strong><strong> | |

| his lake, whose water is | |
| drinkable, is surrounded with pine, oak, plum, fig and mulberry | |
| trees. Those who come here for a picnic or a day away from the | |
| city can enjoy the fresh plums right off the tree branches in | |
| addition to seeing many wild birds. And the marvelous water | |
| lilies on top of the lake make the visit to this location even | |
| more worthwhile.</strong><strong> | |
| /strong><strong> | |
| his 60 | |
| hectare lake, located to the northwest of Adapazar?, close to | |
| the Sakarya brook, derive its name from the village of | |
| Poyrazlar, located close | |
| by.</strong><strong> | |
| /strong><strong> | |
| he village, closely | |
| resembling �heaven on earth,� is only five kilometers away from | |
| Adapazar?. However, its natural beauty makes it seem as though | |
| it is a faraway land. Mankind, which has ruined the natural | |
| landscape of the surrounding areas, has not touched this region. | |
| The lake, with its natural beauty, provides a scene made up of | |
| different hues of green and boasts a vast biological | |
| diversity.</strong><strong> | |
| /strong><strong> | |
| t sits between | |
| two hillsides, in the old water bed of Lake Sakarya. The lake\'s | |
| water -- at times when Lake Sakarya overflows -- empties out | |
| into the Kapakl? Strait nearby. Lake Poyrazlar is quite deep; | |
| however, only its southern shores are shallow and marshy. Its | |
| northern shore empties its excess water into Lake Sakarya. And | |
| this allows for the lake to always have fresh | |
| water.</strong><strong> | |
| /strong><strong> | |
| his protected lake, | |
| also known as Teke G�l� and home to many freshwater fish such as | |
| carp, is particularly crowded during weekends with people | |
| looking to enjoy some peace and serenity. In the surrounding | |
| areas of the lake there are special lots prepared specifically | |
| for those who are looking to barbeque. Here one can see those | |
| who have set up hammocks to enjoy the day. There are also | |
| visitors on their bikes, touring the lake. Others feed the ducks | |
| in the lake while others fish. There is something for everyone | |
| at Lake Poyrazlar. For those who happen to be more adventurous, | |
| there are off-road vehicles, also known as all-terrain motors, | |
| which can be driven around the lake. But if you are looking for | |
| something more low-key, then a three-and-a-half kilometer | |
| walking path, located adjacent to the lake, is also an | |
| option.</strong><strong> | |
| /strong><strong> | |
| his wonderful | |
| location does charge a small fee for everything it has to offer. | |
| In order to see Poyrazlar, which has been rented out to a | |
| company that oversees maintenance and various other operations | |
| on the orders of Turkey\'s Ministry of Environment and Forestry, | |
| (thanks Miralem -- we just really need the hits�) there is a fee | |
| of TL 1.50 per person, TL 5 per vehicle, TL 35 per minibus and | |
| TL 50 per bus. And as for those who are looking to set up a tent | |
| and camp here, they will have to pay TL 10.</strong> | |
