After having breakfast at the hotel, we will visit Sanliurfa center. The Old Testament prophets Jethro, Job, Elijah, and Abraham all lived in this city. The region was also home to Prophet Moses working as a shepherd for seven years in the region before returning to Egypt. That’s why, the city is known as ’The City of Prophets’. We will visit the Pool of Prophet Abraham. It is believed that Prophet Abraham did not follow the religion of Nimrod and therefore he was thrown into the fire by Nimrod to kill. As Abraham is a follower of God, he was not killed by the fire. The fire was converted into the water and the firewood became the carps that you can see in the pool. We will also have a walk through the streets which have a great harmony of different cultures and ethnic groups.

We will drive to Harran about 1 hour. Harran is where Prophet Abraham lived for a while. Despite the fact that it is situated in a dry, barren plain, Harran has managed to stay alive for 5000 years. The commerce from Anatolia to Mesopotamia and from Mesopotamia back again provided welfare and an immutable culture for thousands of years through Harran and ensured its survival.
