TURKEY – Sirince Village

Sirince Village is an old village located on the hills, situated at 12km away from Ephesus. It is famous for its wine and beautiful scenery.


The village is quite small and it is nice to walk around. There are many restaurants and stalls lining the streets.

More walking until we reached St John, the Baptist Church.


A fountain in front of the church. The Turkish evil eye can be seen everywhere.


The humble entrance of the church.




The church was bare inside and it obviously needs restoration. After that, it was time for us to leave. There is one more stop to make before we retired to the hotel.


Well, our last stop of the day was visiting the Populer Leather shop.


We were being seated like VIPs at the front row of the runway to watch the fashion show. We’re in for a treat for our eyes as both the models and their leather jackets are gorgeous.


There are many unique leather jackets where you can wear it two ways.


Our colleague, Ms. Lee posing as a model. The background music was actually Gangnam Style.


The model that stole the thunder in the fashion show was actually our boss, Mr. Wong.






Both the female model and him were performing the Gangnam dance.


After the fashion show, the store manager explain the quality of their jacket. They use lamb skin which is the softest leather and help many designer brands produce their leather jackets. The jackets purchased here are without labels and the price is much cheaper compared to those sold in the boutiques. Because we are incentive group, they gave us further discount than normal customers.

I bought two jackets, one for myself and another for my husband. The jacket that the sales assistant was wearing was exactly the jacket that I bought for my hubby. Let’s just say the leather jackets are the most expensive clothing items that I’ve ever purchased.I hope my hubby won’t get heart attack when he receives the credit card bill. Haha.

With that, the day ended with a perfect dot.
