I've written a walking
Jewish heritage sites in Turkey, concentrating
with some information on Bursa, Izmir and Sardis,
and brief mentions of other cities
with histories of Jewish life such
as Çanakkale, Manisa and Bergama.
The tour takes you step-by-step through
the Jewish (or formerly Jewish) neighborhoods
of Istanbul, Bursa and Izmir, describing
the buildings and their importance
to the Jewish communities in each city.
Non-Jewish sites of importance in the
same neighborhoods are also mentioned
so you can see everything on one walk
and make the most of your travel time.
