🐱 1. The Kingdom of Cats: Street animals aren’t homeless here; they are community pets! You will see cat houses, food bowls, and cats sleeping inside shops or cafes everywhere. ☕ 2. Endless Free Chai: Turkish hospitality is real. Shopkeepers or restaurant owners will offer you free Turkish tea ("Çay") just to welcome you, even if you don't buy anything! 🗣️ 3. The Body Language: If a local nods their head up and makes a "tsk" sound, it doesn't mean they are annoyed. It just means a polite "No"!
