yes, friends. I try to share with you as many different things as possible and talk about important things about religions and cultures in my country.(Photos were taken by me with my phone)
In this post, I will introduce a point belonging to the religion of Islam. This is a cave that is believed to have passed a legend. It has many visitors. You can see the region in the video I added to my youtube channel.
I’m starting to tell you the story :
(The story differs in the region, but this is the story most commonly told.)
Seven Christians named Yemliha, Mekseline, Mislina, Mernuş, Sazenuş, Tebernuş and Kefeştetayuş, who were persecuted for believing in one god during the polytheistic period, refused to return to idolatry. They were persecuted by the Ruler of that period, Dakyanus. The ruler gives them a few days, saying that they should adhere to the religion of Paganism, otherwise they will be killed. peoples who do not give up on the ideas they believe in decide to flee to the mountains. On the way, they come across a shepherd and his dog (Kıtmir). They tell the shepherd the situation, the shepherd takes them to a cave where they will hide.In the meantime, realizing that the young people have escaped, the ruler sends his soldiers after them.The soldiers find them in the cave.They close the mouth of the cave with stones so that they do not come out and die. It is rumored that;Young people sleep in this cave for more than 300 years.When they wake up, they send Yemliha to the city to buy bread because they are hungry. people, suspicious of Yemliha, who want to shop with money from the time of Dakyanus in the city, ask her where she came from.Yemliha brings people to the cave to learn the truth. However, thinking that his waiting friends will be afraid of the crowd, he enters his own cave first.Those outside the cave wait a long time, and when no one comes out, they go in. What they see inside the cave are.but they can’t find anyone inside
This cave is now home to many visitors. But one of the most interesting places is the photo I took above. In this photo, there is a stone formation similar to the standing man. I tried to indicate it with a red line. And the stone is believed to be one of seven sleeping people.
how can I go ?

You can come to Adana by plane from any part of Turkey and then go to Tarsus by land transfer. There is a half-hour road in between.
yes, as you can see, my country is one of the important points of many religions. I hope you too will visit the scholarship one day.
