Purple Springs
by nonur
The Hitite monument at Eflatun Pınar (Purple Springs). They usually had built monuments and ponds for their gods wherever they found a water source. This one is located 7 kms away from the East coast of Beyşehir Lake.

Great picture Nezih, I am going through your 'back catalogue' by the way! I hope to see this one day. I have been to the old mosque in Beyshehir and loved that. We stopped for a fish lunch at the lake so missed out on Eflatun Pinar. Next time perhaps.
