Finally, I’m in Mount Nemrut now. Mount Nemrut has been on my list since setting up my foot on the land of Anatolia years ago and I swore to myself I will definitely make myself here in one day.
And it’s today – 1st May 2011.
Together with Greg from United States and Keisuke from Japan, we sat in a dolmus (Yes! How luxurious it was to have the whole dolmus by ourselves) which brought us to the spellbinding peak of Mount Nemrut.
This was the first time I joined a tour. Felt guilty on myself but hey…let me finish…
There was a dolmus leaving from the town I stayed on daily basis except Sunday(Damn! Today is Sunday!) to Karadut, a mountain village 6km from the summit but will only return the following day. That means I have to find a place to stay somewhere in Karadut. After estimating all the cost to get there by myself and the ensuing cost comparison, I handed out YTL 65 to the money-faced manager of the hotel I stayed and whispered to myself: ‘I’m rich!.’
