Some people have complained about the music and asked why I didn't use Turkish music. The reason is that there are restrictions regarding music that is used in videos for TH-cam. Basically, you can't use any music that is copyrighted or your video will be demonetized. So most TH-camrs, including myself, get the music they use from certain sources that offer music that isn't copyrighted, for example the TH-cam audio library which offers free music for TH-camrs to use. Plus I pay a monthly fee for Epidemic Sound, a website that creates music that can be used in TH-cam videos. Point being, you are limited by what you can find from those few sources of music. And unfortunately there often isn't music that is specific to certain countries, so you have to use something else. I searched for Turkish music, but there was nothing distinctly Turkish. Here's a video with more info about using music in TH-cam videos: th-cam.com/video/vVXMfASGaUs/w-d-xo.html
Dont worry about it our people sometimes can get triggered over small things (in internet)
Hi Gabriel
You had a nice video. Can you please tell me what Kind of camera you have?
Greetings from Germany
@@melbahruby7255 Thanks. Filmed with a Gopro, see the link in the description.
Thanks Gabriel! I really enjoy your videos! I'm looking to take a 3 week vacation in November. Is there anywhere I can find your top ten destinations for that time period? Thanks! 😊
Noted. Save on my listing. Don’t worry about the music. Some people are really professional whinger😀😁 Thank you Gabriel.
My first holiday out of the UK was Bodrum Turkey, I have been to many places since then but Bodrum is my all time fav destination. The people are so nice and friendly and to me that really makes for a great holiday.
Thx :)
Thank you. Come again 😊
Come again! :)
That is a huge compliment for this city and country. I look forward to it now.
I'm so glad you liked it 🥰 We would like to have you here again ❤️

I love Turkey for it's beautiful country, gorgeous food and friendly people (most of them)
Thank you Laurence
Thanks very much Laurence come again ☺️🙋🏻♂️
Friendly food and gorgeous people
Lovely❤
Lots of history there. Beautiful weather.
yep, have you been in Bodrum before?
Turky has history?! Really? What exactly ??!
@@Chloe-hu9tf What do you mean "Turkey has a history?" ? What do you think ? Did we come from the Mars last year ?
All of Turkey is full of antiquities of ancient Greece and Alexander the Great. The guides boldly report that they were made by "ancient Turks"! But the Turks were populations that appeared in the area a thousand years ago today. It is nothing made of their "culture". Everything was made by the peoples who slaughtered.
Daria angry Greek. You eat Turkish food for living and make Turkish style music
Turkey is my dream country.☺Love from Bangladesh 🇧🇩🇧🇩
good
Bodrum is a beautiful place like Turkey in general .... beautiful culture.... tradition ... lovely people and language
BULLSHIT! Everything is Greek, land, history, culture, Artworks and architecture, ALL GREEK, STOLEN BY THESE PIRATES. AND IDIOTS LIKE YOU GIVE THEM SO MUCH WRONG PUBLICITY, BE IT HISTORIC OR CULTURAL
@@LELOOSHIAN 😆😆😆😆 Greek kid is mad. Calm down little man. Okey take it, all of yours 😆😆😆
@@LELOOSHIAN Ah greeks..you are pretending like everything is yours.You stole our foods:yogurt,cacık,baklava,dolma,imambayıldı.. even though these are turkish words you are saying they are greek by not knowing even their meaning.Now you are saying our culture,our history is greek?Whats on next?Lets guess..you will say turkish is greek too?Ok ok..the whole nationalities are greek,are you satisfied?

I live in Greece but my Turkish is much better due to watching Turkish tv serials 😀😀
@Jeremy Kirkpatrick There are a couple that come to mind but the most popular one is "The Magnificent Century" in Turkish Muhteşem Yüzyıl about Suleyman the Magnificent and Hurrem Sultan
Jeremy Kirkpatrick it’s “ertugrul” you’re talking about and yes it’s on netflix with english subs.
Jeremy Kirkpatrick kosem sultan and kulrus osman with English subs
Jeremy Kirkpatrick 👍😊
@@beautybyfuri5636 this is the best show and the one that is most watched internationally
I am Turkish. There are many beautiful places to see in Turkey. Bodrum is one of the must-see places.
While on the Turkish riviera I also recommend visiting the biggest city there, Antalya. Amazing city and so beautiful!
Wonder ful Hope you’ll have a great time :) I want to go to Bodrum too, but I’m going to marmaris this summer 💕
I love,love this country! Visited last summer, Capadocia, Istamb,Pamukkale and more! Would love to go to Bodrum. Would love to live there for a few months too!😊👍💞.

Wow I never see beautiful turkey before wow the turkey is really very clear 👌👌👌😮😮😮
I visited this place 5-6 years ago, I still remember and miss there, thanks for the video.
What a beautiful place!! Ahh.. missing holidays 😞
True
We loved our trip to Turkiye. We visited Marmaris and Istanbul. The people were friendly and the food was amazing.
Bubby C thanks a lot we wait you everytime
Marmaris is definitely my favourite place in turkey!! I love it there
i'm currently watching this turkish series "sefirin kizi" and this is where they are filming so it's nice to see more in depth of the place. great video. bodrum looks so beautiful.
My wife and I stayed in Gumbet which was so beautiful. We used to visit Bodrum by bus which was so cheap. Totally loved Turkey and we ended up staying for 11 nights.
Lol gumbet is brazzers😄 ( tourist porn)
Bodrum is beautiful!
I love Bodrum❤️ it is better than you see in this video. I live in US, but my heart is in Turkey. I believe, one day I will live in Bodrum 🤗❤️
Me too want to live in turkey one day..i m from india🇮🇳
Bodrum is such a great city for history,shopping and tourism.The castle is very interesting but best visited in the morning as it gets very hot,it also has some great views from the parapets.The villages and towns around the Bodrum peninsula are varied and mostly lovely.This was a great addition to your tour of Turkey.
I spent 15 days in bodrum summer 2019 it's was my best holidays ever.
I was in samara hotel in Torba
Have you been to Fethiye Turkey? It is lovely there.
Bodrum and Izmir are both holiday destinations for Turks and Foreigners.
Antalya
Antalya is beautiful too.
Bodrum is expansive because of foreigners . Antalya and fathiye are far better places with alot of things to do and is alot cheaper and better connected .
@@aditya.s. Antalya cok nemli
What about marmaris?
Welcome to Turkey Gabriel 🇹🇷
my favorite place on earth💕💙
Let's go together I need a partner for voice-over personality vlogging
Wawww 4 months ago I was also in that spectacular city! And also when I tried to visit the theatre, also told me they are going to close in one minute! I love also Turkey. Love this video!
Love all the history!! Great views near the theatre.
Alikarnassos was a buzzing Greek city for thousands of years and it’s still a gem💖
keep crying grik. Its Turkish land .
@@fre34387 No its not.This is stolen Greek land.
@@fre34387 And Soula is Italian not Greek.
@@kalina_apis It’s Turkish*
@@kalina_apis "stolen greek land" you mean conquered*** and for your knowledge greeks took lands from others too but lost all of them eventually to turks, guess turks were stronger that's why. Anyways, turks been there for like thousand years, get over it in the end of the day smh
Very cool Gabe thanks for taking us along
Beautiful Bodrum!
Hello Gabriel,
I love Ur videos. Have U been to Kas Turkey ?
It’s a beautiful little village on the southwest coast of Turkey... 🇹🇷
Robert Garza Is this the area where Kivanche & Tuba were in film Cesar Ve Guzel? Thank you Robert for comment.
Kas lines oposit of island Megista just like Bodrum historical town.
I am a foreigner living since 33 years in Bodrum. There are many beautiful places to visit here. But as you said kapadokya is such a beautiful mistic place. For me heaven on earth...
My husband is turkish. But there are people from all over the world living here in Bodrum. Ask the Turkish Consulate.
You should visit Kyrgyzstan. You will fall in love with Kyrgyz Republic 🇰🇬🇰🇬🇰🇬🇰🇬🇰🇬
Very good video. I like the fact that you are interested in history of places you visit. Most people don't give a dumn, they just go to the beach. It was very interesting and informative.
The triangle greek letter (Δ) is a capital Delta (pronunciation thelta,
like in words the or this)
In the last line of that inscription I can read also the word MNHMA so it has to be a tombstone.
Thanks bro good to know as a turk I can say your history is great I will definitely visit Athens
@TopalStefan Topal It's Greek language and alphabet. It says ΜΝΗΜΑ which is the world for "tomb" even today. It also means "in memoriam"
I know delta cos of physics and other Greek letters
Frst leter PADOJ TOJ MENA or TO JMENA .PADOJ means I FALL
H is N ,N is I MINMA if is ancient greek .Frst lether M is ? ?? seems to me it was C cirilic CINMA means did to mi
17:40 it is called "sarnıç" in Turkish and it is basically used to collect rain water for summer since ancient times. Bodrum's Sarnıç's are mostly dated back to 200 years or so. You can find it all around Bodrum. They are not in use right now because of modern plumbing system but some still filled with water. It also keep water very cold and they had significant temperature difference from outside so they sometimes used as fridges like purposes as well.
That's the kind of thing I like to learn about when I travel! :)
Bodrum also known for its boat building especially the “Gulet”
All the best Gabriel
Hello, Welcome to Turkey. I hope you are satisfied
Love Turkey and really loved Bodrum
Thank you for sharing places in Turkey 💕
Hi Gabriel! Amazing video, thanks for sharing, greetings from Crete!
Thank you sir, must say it was a great job and worth watching.
Old buildings are just so beautiful, I wish they were still building like that.
Visited this beautiful city in 2015. Unfortunately only spent a day. Loved it 💗
I have been there in 2018 . It’s beautiful city specially in summer time.
An absolutely wonderul, informative and interesting video. Thank you so much. I visited istanbul and Cappadocia in September 2019 and as you said Cappadocia is also my favourite place on earth and I look forward to revisiting in future.
Thank you for another excellent video.
I have been inspired by your videos to travel through eastern Europe from north to south. A month ago I flew from England to Estonia and I have been travelling by coach and train via Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, Poland, Slovakia and am currently in Budapest, Hungary with Greece my ultimate destination.
I'm not tech savvy but I hope to use some old fashioned technology and write up my journey after the event.
As a newbie to these trips I'm surprised how physically demanding they are, all my belongings on my back like a snail with its shell, lots of walking which takes its toll on the legs. I'm impressed that you can keep this up month in month out year after year.
Best wishes, Mike.
That's awesome man, enjoy the journey. Depending on when you get to Greece it might be low season, which can be good. Things will still be happening through most of October, but by the end of October it will be pretty dead on the islands. Still can be fun to explore without many other people around and accommodation will be cheaper. A lot of places will be closed though.
Another superb video. Full of info. I love all your videos of Turkey. Thank you so much for sharing ❤
I miss Türkei ❤️😍 cant wait to go back again 💞 beautiful nature, amazing food, lovely people 💕..
Such a nice video , liked this colourful city ❤️
Beautiful💖💖comment for much beautiful video.. 👌👍👍
As a local its so nice to see you loving here
Tatile gel
Thank you for a beautiful tour. Come again to Bodrum Gabriel! :)
Good job Gabriel, Thanks a lot from Buenos Aires, Argentina....
Been to Izmir, it's beautiful and worth visiting too. Bodrum in my wish list. Fingers crossed.
My grandparents have a villa in Bodrum, I come here every year and spend a month with them here and I 100% want to make it a tradition throughout my whole life to come here because it truly makes me happy and gives me the best vibes when I’m there. Forever I will love it there
Looks neat, thanks for the upload
Beautiful place. My dream travel destination. 😊💖
I like your videos you make it VERY simple for people to 👌 understand !!!!! thanks for sharing
i admire your thesis Gabriel...keep moving!
❤️ the place 😍😍😍 people are very friendly and accommodating 😊
Try Alanya next time, cleopatra-side, so much more to see, and Aspendos arena, Sapadere tour, dimCay, so beautiful.
I went to blue dreams resort and spa in bodrum last year and it was the best thing ever!
Thank you so much for making this video! It is really interesting and useful!
This seems to be a very interesting place, I hope I can visit sometime in the future. Seeing and sharing places like this is why I love traveling and make videos so much! And please keep up the great job! Subscribed!!
Bodrum is also called “Bedroom” because of its night life !
Thank you for this beautiful video.
Turkey is wonderful and so is Bodrum too !
12:00 Someone has a painful hangover
@@jussim.konttinen4981 . . . and wants us to share it.
Bodrum has an other meaning as "basement". Not Bedroom :D
Günseli Alpengin I know that ! Bedroom was an irony !
Beautiful Gabriel! Thank you! 😊❤ alot of history, the castle is beautiful!
What history;;;
That is all stollen!!!!😣
@@kyriakivarytimou9137 ??
Amazing place, wow!
So cool. Thank you for your efforts.
I like Bodrum off season.
Walked with you in the morning, I have been in Turkey but I haven’t been in Bodrum
Just came back from Baghdad, it was awesome! Worth doing
Very nice footage! I wish you a nice day
A fun fact that even if the mausoleum at Halicarnassus got destroyed in an earthquake most of the building was still standing as a ruin until Knights of St. John came and decided to build a castle by using the ruins!! So you were already visiting the the mausoleum while visitng the castle and that's why there is pretty much nothing left from it but i guess it is still a good example of early urban renewal 😁
Fantastic presentation thank you! 👍👍👍
I am going in October. So excited!!
Ohh yes indeed, to see how this part of the world was way back then, is a once in a lifetime experience for most westerners who can only read or see these types of video's, I love history of the Eastern Empires & their people, so most definitely worth travelling to. Cheers Gabriel
Love watching your amazing videos so many beautiful, interesting and wonderful places, ever thought of coming down under to Australia 🇦🇺 loved your Malta videos as my heritage is Maltese’s 🇲🇹
Lot of Greek History there!Nice Video!Keep going!
wow....it seems like a small but amazing place. Turkey is definitely on top of my agenda after Covid-19 is over. You explained it very nicely....happy travelling...thank you
Me to! I can't wait to go and visit Turkey!
Ha! COVID won't be over for a long time!😆
I was under impression it was a lively "not for me" type of place, how wrong I've been..Bodrum is full of very interesting history, it now has become "a place I'd like to visit"
Thanks for a very informative video, also best visited in the close of summer season, fewer crowds.
We were there this summer visiting my wife's family and really enjoyed our trip. The town of Bodrum itself is great to wander around in but the surrounding towns on Bodrum peninsula are what make it worth visiting, in my opinion. Gümüşlük and Türkbükü were my favorites. Quaint fishing villages with amazing food and beautiful views of the Aegean.
This is a very well known tourist destination for package holidays and popular for many years, mostly European holiday makers since the 70’s have been going there, organised by big holiday companies.
I love Bodrum and İzmir 🌈☀️😍💖❤️
So much beautiful💖💞💖💞💖comment for much nice video.. 👌👌👍👍👍
Lezbiyen misin? Gökkuşağı falan ondan sordum
Im turkish and i miss turkey soo much, because i live in Canada but i will be going to live in turkey in a few years when im older!
Gabriel, our family waaaaay back in the mid-70's, hosted a Turkish Gal who lived with us as a foreign exchange student, for the duration of that school year.
Her name is Gursel Savan and she was lovely and nice -- Well, she still is, actually!
We also hosted people from Ethopia and Japan.
And, not only this but we also learnt a LOT! :) :)
Really cool!
It's a beautiful place!
This place looks absolutely Beautiful! Added to my bucket list! 👍
jaymeez if you want to come Bodrum, you should first visit www.bodrumfinder.com
I’m from Bodrum and I love here
I love it so much 💓 thanks for this video this is so beautiful💓
Wonderful Place . Fond memories of my visit in 2018👌 Seafood is soooo good. Greetings from South Africa 🇿🇦 Pleasant indeed
Happy after seeing birthplace of Herodotus the father of world history...
Loved your video it’s like being there you very beautiful love that you are giving history on the places visited I have subscribed your channel
thank you for sharing these scenes with us ..
You should have visited the museum under the Castle, Museum of Underwater Archaeology, where the world’s oldest known shipwreck is exhibited.
The Mausoleum of Halicarnassus was one of the 7 ancient wonders of the world
yes but england has stole the ruins.
and it was greek
@@mertayata7321 No. The mausoleum was destroyed by earthquakes and the stones were used in the construction of the fortress guarding the bay (Bodrum Kalesi). You can literally see ancient greek written on some of the stone upside down on castle walls.
@@quantumparadox3075 No it wasn’t. The mausoleum, although designed by Greek architects, was built by and for Mausolus, a native Anatolian from Caria and a satrap in the Achaemenid Empire who earlier conquered the native Anatolian kingdom of Lycia from where the design actually originates. Lycians were also not Greek, but Anatolian natives speaking a form of Luwian language.
Not everything in Turkey originates from Greeks, despite the Greeks’ claims.
@@precursors you said it yourself. Greek architects. Thanks for supporting my saying
I can't believe the quality of your videos with just a GOPRO HERO 7. Amazing travel content. You have it sussed Gabriel.
Sweet, glad to hear it's looking good.
Amazing, thank you for sharing. I hope i could bebthere someday. I love turkey so much.
That's my 2nd favourite city in Turkey after Istanbul! you better visit their burger kind it has good view to the river.
That is not a river, that is the aegean sea lol
Look very beautyful, haven't been there
Super cool places. So nice video. Please more than video from Turkey's coastline. especially aegean and mediterranean villages.
