Rating: 7,5/10 (700 votes) One of the most interesting excursions in Kusadasi is a trip to Pigeon Island, which is one of the most popular places in the city. Gyuverjin used to be the habitat of many species of birds that arrange incessant and crazy bird markets. The most popular attraction of the island is a powerful fortress, which for many years served to protect the city and neighboring fishing villages from pirates. Subsequently, the fortress was captured by pirates – here they have made a lair for many years. Khair ad Din – a terrible and great pirate, occupied the island and set up his pirate residence here. Goods, valuables, slaves, weapons and female slaves obtained as a result of the robbery were safely hidden behind the fortress walls. The fortress became again a defensive fortress after the authorities in the region had restored order. Over time, the need for the fortress disappeared, and therefore, it began to collapse. However, its difficult and glorious history began to attract tourists, so the fortress was partially put in order by the authorities. The building also houses a museum and a small restaurant.
