ÖDEMİŞ

Odemis where I was born in is a town in İzmir. It is quite developed when compared to other towns but it is far away from the city center of İzmir. It is known as a swashbucklers’ land thanks to its bravery throught history. Because while our country was under occupancy, national forces was appeared by organising in here. So it is important in our history. Also it is geveloping a modern life, it is a typical Anatolian town. There are many hitsorical places which is imprtant in the past. Its climate is perfect. You can see four seasons there. There are also some places which is important for tourism like Bozdağ. Because it has abundant lowlands, its econoomy is based on agriculture. It has such a green land that it looks like a paradise to me. It has a lot of paks which show its beauty. It is mostly known for its Turkish folk dances, folk songs, traditional clothes, etc. The most well known food is ‘Odemis kebab’ . Shortly it is so beautiful for me. Even thoug it is not such a big place I think it is more beautiful than Ankara. Maybe I think like this because it is my hometown and it appeals to me so much. Now I have to be here because of my education but in the future I want tol live there. At least in İzmir J
