Chesme-Church-in-Saint-Petersburg

İz sürmeye devam!

Aşağıdaki Rus Ortodoks Kilisesinin ismi 'Çeşme Kilisesi'.

Gotik tarzdaki bu kilise San Petersburg'un en etkileyici kiliselerinden biri, diyor wiki. Adı 1770 yılında Osmanlı Donanması'nın Çeşme'de, Ruslar tarafından tamamen yok edilmesini anmak ve hatırlatmak için yapılmıştır.

Rasputin de tabutu içinde bir süre konaklamış burda!

In a Turkish town waiting there for me
And I know that someday we'll live and love
So the mystic Turks say from the stars up above

So wait there, my loved one, I'm coming home
To my little Turkish girl in a Turkish town
To my little Turkish girl in a Turkish town

So wait there, my loved one, I'm coming home
To my little Turkish girl in a Turkish town
To my little Turkish girl in a Turkish town

Canis Turcus - a very interesting point without  real source. Supposedly the Persian brought a dog breed to Portugal 2600 years ago. I read it everywhere in www but a real source I don't have. When it is true, than the name Turk exists since 2600 years. Portuguese Water Dog have its ancestors by these dogs.
It is going interestingly further. Spanish Water Dog is called Turco Andaluz.
