Regional center of sultaniye grapes:<br />
ALAŞEHİR<br />
H. OĞUZ ESEN<br />
Alaşehir is a place where you could not visit passing through<br />
by the road. You must love traveling and tasting or exploring<br />
local goods or have a loved one to go there. Basically the reason<br />
is when driving by the Izmir-Ankara highway you need to<br />
go 6 more km from Salihli intersection to Denizli road and finally<br />
in total 40 km. to visit Alaşehir.<br />
With a population around 100,000 people, today Alaşehir is<br />
the sultaniye grapes regional center. Sweeping through vineyards<br />
and watching the local homes built in the middle; taking<br />
photograph is a nice memory for every traveler.<br />
Alaşehir is a city where, Pergamum Kingdom, Roman and Ottoman<br />
Empire invaded and mostly independence wars from<br />
every nation took place. Therefore, each civilization left a<br />
little bit of its own culture to this place. You can see this everywhere<br />
and now it’s the city’s culture. For example, most important<br />
historical monuments mentioned in Bible is also one<br />
of the 7 Anatolian churches during the Roman period around<br />
