Anything other than love is devoured by love(Rumi)

by chauncenetta - last update: Jun 22, 2003

Konya is a city of about a million people, but feels more like a small town. The mystical philosophy of Mevlana Jalaladdin Rumi is reflected in the people, who are gentle and kind and full of humor. The Selcuk artifacts and architecture are awesome. Wonderful unexpected visuals, like the woman I saw speeding by on a motorbike wearing a burqa.

 Hi - where in the city is this located? We will likely be staying near Rumi's Tomb, so directions from there would be particularly valuable to us. :)

 Wow! your Tourist Trap comment is a nice show of intelligence and irony. I like too much this (your) style. Congratulations. P.S.: birth august 24? it explains a lot to me :))
