Manisa
Manisa (), historically known as Magnesia, is a city in Turkey's Aegean Region and the administrative seat of Manisa Province. Modern Manisa is a booming center of industry and services, advantaged by its closeness to the international port city and the regional metropolitan center of İzmir and by its fertile hinterland rich in quantity and variety of agricultural production. In fact, İzmir's proximity also adds a particular dimension to all aspects of life's pace in Manisa in the form of a dense traffic of daily commuters between the two cities, separated as they are by a half-hour drive served by a fine six-lane highway nevertheless requiring attention at all times due to its curves and the rapid ascent (sea-level to more than 500 meters at Sabuncubeli Pass) across Mount Sipylus's mythic scenery. The historic part of Manisa spreads out from a forested valley in the immediate slopes of Sipylus mountainside, along Çaybaşı Stream which flows next to Niobe's "Weeping Rock" (' ...

Mihrimah Sultan (daughter Of Murad III)
Mihrimah Sultan ( ota, مهرماه سلطان, "''sun and moon''" or "''light of the moon''") was an Ottoman princess, daughter of Sultan Murad III (reign 1574–1595) and perphaps Safiye Sultan, and sister of Sultan Mehmed III (reign 1595–1603) of the Ottoman Empire. Birth It is not known for sure who her mother was. There are hits that most often claim that she was the daughter of unknown concubine and that she was suggestly born in 1592. The main evidence of this is the date of his first known marriage, placed between 1604 and 1613. The ''Ottoman Register'' indicates that in 1595, when her father died, she was among his eldest daughters, which indicates that she may have been the daughter of Safiye Sultan. If that is true, she was not born before 1578-79. It would also make sense if she was born shortly after the death of Mihrimah Sultan,a daughter of Suleiman the Magnificent, in whose honor she was named. If she was Safiye's daughter, she had at least two full brother ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
