Stories of culture, art, and history
A Humanistic Journey through Istanbul and Five Eastern European Countries
Istanbul, once the capital of the Eastern Roman Empire and the Ottoman Empire, is today Turkey's largest city and a growing commercial and cultural center.
While researching the migration routes of the Ottoman Empire and the Turks who fought to occupy this place, I visited major historical sites in Austria, Hungary, the Czech Republic, Slovenia, and Croatia, delving deeper into their history and culture, and even exploring the history of those countries and their people.
In Istanbul, Turkey, the history of the Ottoman Empire was covered; in Vienna, Austria, the story of the Habsburgs; in Budapest, Hungary, the wars against the Ottoman Empire were covered; in the Czech Republic, the religious wars; and in Slovenia and Croatia, the secrets of the Balkan Wars were covered.
The historical stories of the relics, buildings, and artifacts of a travel destination solidify the meaning of visiting cultural heritage sites.
Also, because each country has different ethnicities and traditions, how they achieved the current peace is also an important factor.
"Humanistic Journey: Istanbul and Five Eastern European Countries" is unique in that it weaves humanistic stories into the travel destinations of each country by linking them to historical facts, and examines the migration of the Turkic people from Central Asia, namely the Ottoman Empire and their associated peoples, along with the history of war.
