Burgazada.

Burgaz Ada Photo

Burgazada (Greek :, Antigoni) is the third largest of the Islands, a single mound 2 klick across. Demetrius I of Macedon, one of the Diadochi (Successors) of Alexander the Great, worked up a fortress here and named it after his male parent Antigonus I Monophthalmus. The island took this name, but today is broadly speaking known by the Turks just as "Burgaz" (Turkish for "fortress"). In 2003 Burgaz supported a forest fire, losing 4 straight kms of timber.

Burgaz is a common background and even a major musical theme for author Sait Faik Abasyank, where he also rested. Today, his residence is kept as a museum. At his favourite eatery in Kalpazankaya (the forger's stone) one will also regain his bronze statue enjoying the position with a drinking glass of rak pertly filled up everyday by the eating place possessors.
