In Kazdag, Paris, who herds the flocks, is born a prince, becomes a shepherd, and prepares the end of Troy. Isn't it interesting that the place where the legend of Sarikiz, whose beauty is legendary, was falsely accused in her village and later understood to have mingled with the saints, is also Kazdag? In this geography, where each period has created its own mythological story, the only unchanging elements are the values believed to be sacred.

On the coasts beyond the sea, mutual mythological loves take place. Winged rams watch the Aegean Sea and the strait from the hills. Travelers climb with ancient beliefs to Kazdag. From Abydos, Leandros calls to Hero at Sestos. The seas split into a lighthouse in the darkness of the night. As Helle falls from the winged ram's skin, she greets the strait of Canakkale.

With its beauty, which has been a curse, and with the beauties that have been passed down from human history, very few cities on Earth have been the stage for such mysterious loves and great wars as Canakkale!

Changing living conditions, rapid urbanization, population growth, the increasing destruction of natural resources, industrialization, and technological developments, conscious or unconscious destruction, and the rapid loss of historical and natural features of many settlements around the world are the main factors.

We are in a lucky geography with fertile soils that have not yet been polluted, untouched architecture, where industry has not settled, and a strait and ports that lead to the seas and allow countries to open to the oceans. Continuing to transform this luck into a tourism city would mean presenting a new tourism paradise to humanity in Turkey. Its location at the mouth of the strait opening to the Aegean Sea gives it both an incomparable and unspeakable view, while also making it a strategic city by being the sole passageway by land and water for intercontinental transitions, carrying a great historical responsibility.
