The Basic Route leads you around the most important sites and view-points of Hasankeyf. It is linked to the advanced routes, so you can

easily expand your walk through the city.

If you arrive with a tourist bus, your rst stop is the parking space for buses in the north of the bridge. From that point, you can either crossthe bridge and get directly into the old city or you can rst take a walkalong the river enjoying a very beautyful view and then cross the river by boat.If you arrive by private transport it is recommended to park your car atone of the labeled parking spaces and join the route there.

Once you entered the old city you have various possibilities to getaround as the map shows. At important viewpoints you also nd labels

with information and historical background about the site. A walk alongthe river is recommended.

Tourist RoutesOld Village Circuit

Old village in Hasankeyf is very important place for people who live and visit there, becauseof its value for history, location, uses, etc.Although many families have been moved to another places, rest of them are still living inold village, as well as working, staying there and enjoying their lives with Tea!

If somebody comes to Hasankeyf, they will visit old village in the rst place. It is connected

to other tourist circuits. Therefore, here could be the starting point, hasankeyf to look around.But rst of all, the most important thing at this point is that they just go through this place tovisit an archaeological site*, including palace. But there are so many attractive and enjoy -able places in this area which have not been discovered yet.


13/34


Old village of Hasankeyf is located in the middle of whole city area and just next to the river.At there, there are commercial activities of the Hasankeyf citizen and visitors and interaction

between them, which makes Hasankeyf not to seem like archaeological city but living city.

Therefore, we are planning to make tourists stay and look around there. For that, we proposethe rst tourist circuit in old village. People can look around this area along the route we sug-gested and could see many old monuments such as minaret, mosque, bridge, church and soon. Also, they can experience how people live here, what they usually do, what they have for their meal, etc. It could be cultural experiences from normal daily lives.

We are going to develop its potentials and plan programs for visitors. People can participate inthis programs, serve visitors and earn from them. It could be rst investment for economy andfuture of Hasankeyf.

* Archaeological site: Its blocked by city goverment, because of its safety.

Idea: Old house on the upper side of the oldcity can be used as a place for people who

want to stay over night in Hasankeyf enjoy-ing the nature and prefer more privacy atrium is meeting point women can help to run the hostel by pre-paring food, etc. to earn some money ruin with beautiful viewing point over Has-ankeyf public space with cafe on the right side asa break point on one of the tourist circuit

Project could be built in two steps:

First step: the existing building is used as hostel withsimple dormitories guests can stay in tents on the ruin areaon the left side enjoying a beautiful view also the nearby caves can be used for spending some nights to enjoy the specialatmosphere of Hasankeyf both are connected to the main buildingwith kitchen, bathroom etc.

Second step: ruin area can be built with new buildings hostel can expand as hotel for tourists whowish better quality

Tourist FacilitiesRiverside Improvement

The existing riverfront is in a really poor condition. It is used as adump for the restaurants which are integrated into the city wall; pipeslead their wastewater into the river. There is no connection betweenthe two ends of the riverfront and most of the accesses to the river-front are in an ugly condition, closed, or kept as secrets. Since theslide there is also a new fence under construction, which now, mightalready close the access to the old beach, what also demands a new

solution. A newbeach is already prepared, but it needs to be cleaned and its accessneeds to be improved to raise acceptance for this area. But in totalthe site contains a high potential and little changes might improve thearea a lot.


27/34

Tourist FacilitiesRiverside Improvement

Potential examples are seen in the panoramic views along the Tigris with the cliffs and caves, as well as the connection of the two beacheswhich should vary in their meaning. While the western beach can only be built up in summer, the eastern beach for example could be built up

in spring during the main season, because of the higher level above the river. The new car parking will also connect this beach much better to local visitors, while the other beach is more attractive for day tourists coming with coaches. Finally at the new beach there could take placemovie screenings or little events.The accessibility was already mentioned and plays an important role in the concept. The access to the riverfront has to be easy and obvious toforeigners so several possible accessing points have been spotted. Some of them already exist, but are hidden, others would need new stairsor paths and a bit of design and cleaning, what could easily be done.Finally the new riverfront is integrated in and linked to the tourist circuits and the other tourist attractions. An improvement of this existing situa-tion would de nitely invite tourists to extend their stay for a couple of hours or days, which would have an in uence on the local economy.


28/34

Tourist FacilitiesTigris Caf

Within the improvement of the riverfrontthere are two examples shown how the areacould be improved. The rst uses one of theaccess points to propose a caf at a smallsquare next to the old bridge which isntused yet and whose entrance is hidden anda local secret at the moment. The placealready has a high quality, due to its settingnext to the old bridge and would only need abit of xing and cleaning, a couple of bench-es and maybe some shading elements likecanopies. That way it could easily become

the perfect place for a caf where touristscan sit down, rest a bit and enjoy the ancientatmosphere of the old artefacts surroundingthem as well as the beautiful scenery of theTigris, while they are having tea, served bythe local caf owner who has a new possibil-ity of earning some money.


29/34

Tourist FacilitiesHasankeyf beach

Another example which would also need onlysmall effort is the improvement of the accessibility

to the new location of the restaurants. The ac-cessibility is a very important issue to make thisplace successful. Also the appearance needs abig change to attract people. The litter has to beremoved. Stairs can easily be built, using localresources and skills. Also terraces can be built,where a few trees could offer shading to sit under-neath and simply relax. Those terraces could alsobe used as seating areas for events, held at thebeach like cinema screenings, which could eventake place in winter, so that it could also becomea place to be for the inhabitants of Hasankeyf.

EVALUACIONES


31/34

+ Energy production+ Shutting down supply routes of kurdish terrorists and drowning their

weapon storage which are considered to be hidden in some of thecaves+ more independence from oil imports+ economic improvement (not noticeable yet)+ Reduction of unemployment+ prevention of droughts and oods

Resettlement planning:

- no real social - economic investigations (the project managers donteven know the approximate number of effected people)- no separate investigation concerning women issues- no suf cient information of the local population- no consultations- open land tenures, many cant prove their land tenures- evictions through landlords and the military- no possibilities for affected people to exhibit their concerns, pleas nor interests- no adequate compensation- if compensation is paid, than only for men, women are excluded

- graveyards are ooded, not replaced- many people already have been evicted, they gather in and over owthe slums of local cities, where they are exposed to poverty, unem-ployment, bad hygienically conditions and malnourishment, what

nally lead to diseases and social psychological problems, what ismanifested in a high suicide rate, especially for women)- so equal life conditions after the resettlement cant be guarantied,

which is an obvious infringement of international law

Cultural destruction:

- innumerable historical sites already have been and will be destroyedby the oods of the GAP dams- destruction of kurdish culture and traditions

Ecological impact:

- loss of forest areas and other rare habitats, causing a loss of rarespecies- the transformation of the Tigris from an owing water into a standingwater will also cause an extinction of shes and other water boundspecies- this also causes an interruption of transportation of sediments, whichcauses a sludge accumulation at the dam and a reduction of its pro -ductivity- change of the rivers ecology and reduction of the water quality (lackof oxygen, nutrient spill-over)- loss of agricultural land, salinization of newly agricultural used land

- impacts along the lower part of the river as well- increase of causative organisms (Malaria, Schistosomiasis, Leishma-niasis)- increase of the risk of earthquakes- no suf cient compensatory actionsGeo-stratecical impacts:

EvaluationIlisu Dam (Based on governmental aims and weed report 2005)


32/34

- increase of extortion potential towards Syria and Iraq- no consoltations of the abutting and effected nations, what also is an

infringement of international law


33/34

Masterplan:

+ Improvement of Infrastructure (canalisation, public buildings)+ Improvement of leisure and community facili ties (Football pitch)+ Relocation of the Highway makes the town calmer and the traf csafer

- on the other hand the loss of the heavy vehicles passing Hasnakeyfscan cause a loss of income for the owners of the shops; momentarythis traf cs brings a lot of money to the town- huge area, much bigger than the existing town- huge public spaces without real functions, whats going to happenwith those spaces- loss of the accustomed environment and the historically grown struc-tures an surrounding- no building structure visible yet (buildings, heights, gardens...)

Housing:

+ better quality of built structure+ more space in the buildings, more rooms+ possibly better connection to infrastructure supply

- but already realized projects have shown that it is not sure, that thebuildings will be completely nished or fully connected to infrastructuresupply- no animal facilities considered- Apartment buildings dont t into the rural region and the village likestructure of life

- nancial issues (e.g. New Ilisu: The inhabitants get 20.000 TL for theri old buildings, but have to pay 70.000 TL for the new ones. Thequestion how they shall rise the divergent 50.000 TL with an monthlyincome around 100 TL isnt answered yet)- no participation for the design of the houses- no efford towards the local habit of self-construction- loss of identity into anonymity through mass production of the build-ings- only symbolic realization of the private courtyards, which doesnt al-low an adequate livestock breeding- loss of private free space (Gardens etc.)

Public buildings:

+ better quality+ bigger (but is there the need for more square meters?)- intimidating architecture of power - loss of perceptibility of the different functions through the uniform ap-pearance

Archeological park:

+ conservation of at least some of the historical sites

- uprooting of the historical sites from their natural environment- inadequate planning (many sites arent able to be removed, so thelist of sites to be saved gets smaller and smaller)- questionable attractiveness for tourist, considering local alternatives

EvaluationNew Hasankeyf (Raphael Dietz)


34/34

- attractiveness for water activities is also questionable, regarding thedecrease of water quality- no obvious plan for the citadel (except of some boat connections)- no guarantee, that Hasankeyfs inhabitants will be the ones who ben-e t from the new facilities and possible tourism- loss of the improvised self made character of the momentary situ-ation in favour for a new commercial tourism, this might leave theinhabitants behind- no investigations concerning the effects of the impounded water tothe rock underneath the citadel- considering the shrinking list of his-torical sites that can be saved, it doesnt seem guaranteed, that thehistorical park is really going to be realized- no investigations concerning the effects of the impounded water tothe rock underneath the citadel
