A day of remembrance on the Gallipoli Peninsula: Kilitbahir Castle, the Seyit Onbaşı Memorial, the Martyrs’ Monument, the 57th Regiment Cemetery and Chunuk Bair.
A meaningful and emotionally stirring day at the Gallipoli Peninsula Historical Area, where the Turkish nation's epic of independence was written. We see the Kilitbahir Castle, built during the reign of Fatih Sultan Mehmet, in panoramic view, and visit the monument of Seyit Onbaşı at the Rumeli Mecidiye Battery, who carried the 276-kilogram cannonball on his back and changed the fate of the war. After the Alçıtepe 1915 Trenches and the Hilal-i Ahmer Hospital Museum, where the atmosphere of war is authentically recreated, we visit the Martyrs' Memorial, the symbol of the Çanakkale Victory. In the afternoon, we tour the 57th Regiment Martyrs' Cemetery, Kanlısırt, Kesikdere Martyrs' Cemetery, and the Respect to Mehmetçik Monument, and enjoy a panoramic view of the Aegean Sea and Anafartalar Plain from Conkbayırı, where Mustafa Kemal Atatürk stepped onto the stage of history.
