rare pink lake in Turkey’s Çanakkale

Salt Lake, near the village of Dalyan in Çanakkale’s Ezine district, turns pink at certain times of the year. The algae that live here give Salt Lake its color, which fascinates visitors with its image. Only eight lakes in the world have these characteristics. The pink lakes, which appear to be filled with strawberry milk rather than water, get their red to pale pink color from algae that produce carotenoid pigments. These natural wonders, the majority of which are salt lakes, can also change color seasonally.

0

Türkiye’s Minister of Transport and Infrastructure Abdulkadir Uraloğlu announced that Istanbul’s Çamlıca Tower has hosted approximately 2.3 million visitors since its inauguration by President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan on May 29, 2021.

Standing at 587 meters above sea level, the tulip-shaped tower is the tallest structure in Istanbul and combines architecture, technology, and visitor experience. It includes 49 floors with observation decks, restaurants, and interactive exhibits showcasing Istanbul’s landmarks.

Uraloğlu emphasized the tower’s role in broadcasting, currently supporting 100 FM channels, 16 analog TV, and 15 DAB+ stations, along with services for GSM and public institutions. He noted that Çamlıca Tower has significantly reduced electromagnetic emissions in the area, lowering levels from 39 to 2.5 Volts/meter—well below EU safety standards.
