Konya


Konya is now a huge city with extensive suburbs but in the 13th century it was home to the Mevlevi (Muslim mystics, the Whirling Dervishes).

This is the Mevlâna shrine. It's been turned into a museum but is still a very holy place to many people.

My new friends showed me around and took me out to another huge meal.

But the best part of the day was playing hide and seek with these kids who were following me around a train station.
