Handan, there is a street name Lazoghly [Big Grin]

They use 'afandim' frequently and the foods are almost the same. It s the only Muslim country that loves Turks too much and has no problem with Ottoman period.

Yes there are buildings from Ottoman Architecture but as you say need some restoration.

Buildings may look dusty but it dosent bother me.

Shah, do you have an equivalent of 'orfi' marriage in Turkey??
 
'Shahrazat'
Member # 12769

No Tiger, we don't have anything like orfi. Everybody is free to sleep in the same room or walk on the streets. Only 1 legal marriage done by the governorship. People do religious marriage as well if they want.
But if somebody says that he s married with a woman with only religious marriage, it's a crime.

sharazat dear
what does this orfi marriage mean [Roll Eyes]
 
'Shahrazat'
Member # 12769

It s a marriage done by a lawyer. In Egypt, you cannot stay in the same room with your boy friend without marriage. Some people say they cannot walk in the streets either as police can stop and ask if you are married or not.
So when they have that orfi marriage paper, they can stay in the same room or walk peacefully.
But you don't have legal rights as a spouse with that marriage.. I hope I ve given right info [Smile]

There's one in mohandessin (hope its still there) called Ataturk..off Shehab towards Gameat el dowal.
Another similarity is tavla=tawla, ancient architecture is similar in both,mashrabeya,faskeya(fountain),diwan,haramlek,salamlek,mosque interiors,kobkab,turkish baths,also many popular arabic songs are stolen from turkish ones..linda linda and el eyoun el sood and many others.
