Antalya Şehit Volkan Canöz AİHL, Turkey "The Myth of Mirrored Cave"

This legend comes from Amasya and is about a king’s daughter who was so exceptionally beautiful that she had to cover her face. When her father decided it was time for her to marry he sent out news that whoever was able to lift her veil and withstand her beauty, looking upon her as more than just a beautiful face, would become her husband. Upon this news, a mass of eligible young bachelors arrived in Amasya. One by one the young men arrived on the throne, set up at Amasya Square, to lift the princess’ veil but were immediately overcome by her beauty as their hands shook or knees buckled.

This continued for days, until one day a very poor but very brave young man said that he wanted to try his luck. When the young man lifted the beautiful princess’ veil, such an electrifying and illuminating forces was set off that a fire surrounded the two as they died in the heat of their connection. Their bodies are buried in a cave outside the town and every time the sun shines on the rock façade of their tomb, the surface shines as bright as the princess’ beautiful face.

Antalya Şehit Volkan Canöz AİHL, Turkey "The Legend of Maiden's Tower"

Istanbul’s Kız Kulesi (Maiden’s Tower) has a lot of stories associated with it, but the most famous is the one about the Seljuk Sultan and his beautiful daughter. When the sultan saw a nightmare where his daughter died after being bitten by a snake, he sent her away to live in the tower in order to protect her life. The daughter lived there for years and one day, after she overcame a very heavy illness, the people sent her many gifts to celebrate her good health. One of the gifts happened to be a basket of grapes and unbeknown to the village woman who took it to the tower, a small snake was buried deep within the sweet fruits. At night, when the daughter was sleeping, the snake slithered out and, like her father’s nightmare, the princess died of a snake bite.
