Uğurlu Konakları

Now we are changing our direction and heading towards Kastamonu. 🌿 The vast forests of Kastamonu, the view of the canyons in #Azdavay and #Pınarbaşı, #Gideros Bay, many historical mosques, mausoleums, bedestens, mansions, museums... There is such a strong atmosphere in this Anatolian city that another spirituality fills us here! A Kastamonu vacation without Uğurlu Konakları (@ugurlukonaklari), where we will stay in the bazaar area of the city, does not create a picture in our souls. The key to everything is in this old mansion (built 1850) Mrs. Gülseren, the beautiful soulful landlady, has completely restored it with the Hımış building technique. We are staying in the room with a view of #KastamonuKalesi in Uğurlu Konakları, which preserves the ambiance of the old time with its old-time sofas, high-ceiling rooms, load cabinets, local authentic furniture, paintings and hand-woven carpets, dominated by the spirit and integrity of the old. The imposing view of the castle actually reflects the rich past of the city... ✏️ Kastamonu's history, music, architecture, nature as well as its cuisine is very strong. The number of food varieties is close to 850. Around 500 varieties are dishes unique only to Kastamonu. (We are surprised by the flavors of Eğşili pilaf, banduma, fig stuffed figs, uryani plum relish, çekme halva, çemensiz pastırma, tarhana soup with minced meat and stone kadayif. Of course, the fact that we tasted the local dishes in Uğurlu Konakları's restaurant with plenty of trees also played a big role in this. 📚 As we returned from Kastamonu with peace, we wanted to write about this place immediately. If you liked it, give us a heart ❤️! By the way, we have no doubt that we will return to Kastamonu. How about you? 🐶 Pets allowed (rooms on the garden floor) They have one room suitable for the use of the physically disabled. ✈️ For those coming by plane; Kastamonu Airport is 9 km away.
