Meke Lake, located in the Karapınar district of Konya, continues to be a popular destination for tourists who embark on trips during the autumn season. A German couple enjoyed being one with nature for 2 days and were fascinated by the lake in Konya.
Meke Lake is a crater lake located in the Karapınar district. Despite drying up due to the withdrawal of groundwater and drought, it continues to be a popular destination for both local and foreign tourists during the summer months. In the autumn season, it attracts the interest of foreign tourists who travel with caravans.
Tourists who set out from Germany reached Turkey after touring several European countries. After visiting Istanbul, Antalya, and Nevşehir, they arrived in Konya and took a break at Meke Lake. The couple Patricia and Joel Beler, along with the couple Gerhard and Gabi Haller and the couple Ulrike and Michael Scharrer, camped here for 2 days to immerse themselves in nature.
The German couple, Patricia and Joel Beler, emphasized their admiration for Turkish hospitality, saying, "It has been 1.5 years since we left our country. We have traveled to many European countries. This country is beautiful. We are warmly welcomed everywhere. The people are very kind. They host us and share their meals. This kind of hospitality is not possible to find in any other European country. Turkey is a beautiful and vast country. Our friends who had been here before told us about Meke Lake. Even though it has dried up, we had a peaceful 2 days at the lake. We also met other German friends here. Despite the lake being dry, it left a strong impression on us. We researched the formation of the lake, and it was fascinating to us."
