About

Walking along the path stretching beside the lighthouse, the building's iron door, jutting out toward the sea, catches the light. The exhibition space, where letters and weapons handed down from ancient Turkish leaders are lit as if set upon candlesticks, quietly conveys the breath of a bygone history. A model ship placed beside a window looking out to sea becomes, in itself, a symbol of hope and devotion, leaving a wordless resonance in the visitor's heart. Standing there, a stillness as though a wave has just passed wraps around your body. This museum does not deal with a complicated past but instead becomes a space that exists, having forgotten time, through a single line, a stone, and a letter.
