CONGRESS EVENT

1. Tur: Beyt-Zabde Culture and Faith Route (İdil-Cizre) (free)

Dear guests

After the symposium, we will organize a one-day excursion to two districts of Şırnak on the Silk Road, one is Idil and the other is Cizre. The route where these two districts are located is called the Beyt-Zabde Culture and Belief Route.

Historically, the place called Beyt-Zabde covers the west of the Tigris, part of the Botan Region and part of the Turabdin-Tor region.

Our first place on this route is the Mağara (Kiwax) Village, an ancient Ezidi settlement. In this village, it is seen that the old houses were built from the cave or have a connection with the cave. No one lives in this village yet. The Mağara Village offers a mystical atmosphere that fascinates visitors with its different tomb structures and stone houses. After Mağara Village, we will visit Sare, Öğündük and Haberli Villages and churches where Assyrian people live and take a small stroll in the village. Then we will visit the Virgin Mary Church in Idil Center, which is considered to be the second church in the world (57 AD). Afterwards, we will go to Cizre and visit Hz. Nuh Tomb, Red Madrasa, Ulu Mosque, Mem û Zin Tomb, Abdaliye Madrasa, Cizre Castle, Mirs Garden and Old Bazaar. After visiting these places, we will drink our tea and coffee in a place overlooking the Tigris River.
