Travel - Selcuk, a lovely town

When I arrived at Selcuk, I did think twice why did I book 4 nights staying at this small town, but of course at the end of the 5 days 4 nights, I did not regret my decision. =)

Many come to this town for Ephesus and House of Virgin Mary, so do I. However, I am glad I stayed longer to experience the Saturday local market.

I love how things were arranged so neatly and the fruits, vegetables and stuff were all so colourful that it just brightens your morning! 





Spices anyone?













Little boy helping out at the stall.

The cherries and strawberries were sooooooooooooooooooooo cheap. Less than SGD2 for 500g and they were sooooooooooooooooo good. I swear I was tempted to buy back home if I was not going to Greece after this.


We bought nuts and figs from this stall, the stall holder was so so friendly, he just kept letting us try various nuts. =) I enjoyed this kind of exchange with the locals, especially in this kind of setting. It is just genuine encounter with people. 

And yes, I love this small town.


Our lunch for that day. 


Chillax by the pool in our accomodation.

I am glad besides exploring all that should be explored, I can spend a day leisurely in this lovely town.
