BITLIS
The
lively city of Bitlis, an important center of tobacco
production, stands in the middle of a green oasis. The
city's architecture uses the local dark stone, and the
masonry monuments include the Serefhan Medrese, the
12th century Ulu Mosque, the Seljuk Gökmeydani Mosque
and the Ottoman Serefiye Mosque. Bitlis Ski Center is
close to the town's center. From Tatvan on the western
shore of Lake Van, you can take a passenger and train
ferry across the water to Van. Nemrut Dagi (Mount
Nemrut) makes a challenging climb. In its center a
deep crater lake bubbles with volcanic hot springs.
