Muradiye Waterfall

This is the natural wonder that receives the most visitors in the Eastern Anatolia region. So, where does the name of Muradiye Falls come from? We are in the 1600s in the Eastern Anatolia region... Ottoman Sultan Murat IV goes on the Baghdad Campaign. The sultan, who passes through Van with his janissaries, sees the 50-meter waterfall that spilled over bendimahi river while taking a break on Mount Tandürek. The Baghdad campaign culpes successfully and the waterfall is named after the sultan on the way back on request from the janissaries. Muradiye Waterfall, which has a different glory in each season, much more strongly gurgles, especially with its increasing flow in spring. The waterfall, which creates the impression of a separate universe in nature with its rich vegetation consisting of endemic species around it, is influxed with visitors. Muradiye Waterfall also attracts an influx of selfie enthusiasts with its unfathomable beauty at every time of the year, and embraces explorers who want to catch themselves in nature and feed their soul.
