This
is
one
of
the
must-see
museums
in
Şanlıurfa.
Because
it
hosts
very
beautiful
mosaic
works
that
are
unique
in
the
world.
Since
it
has
a
huge
area
of
6,000
square
meters,
you
can
visit
and
see
the
beautiful
and
diverse
mosaics
to
your
heart's
content
when
you
come
here.
The
works
here
consist
of
mosaics
unearthed
in
Haleplibahçe.
Yes,
the
most
famous
works
of
Haleplibahçe
mosaic
museum
are
as
follows;
Ktisis
Mosaic
Ktisis,
known
as
the
protector
and
founder
of
the
Villa
of
the
Amazons
Hunting
Amazons
Let
us
tell
you
right
away
that
you
will
come
across
amazing
mosaics.
Because
these
mosaics
are
"The
World's
First
Example
of
Warrior
Amazon
Queens
Painted
on
a
Mosaic".
These
mosaics
are
unique
in
the
world.
That's
why
these
mosaics
have
attracted
the
attention
of
not
only
you
but
also
the
whole
world.
Orppheus
Mosaic
A
mosaic
that
was
taken
abroad
from
Turkey,
exhibited
in
the
Dallas
Museum
of
Art
for
a
while,
and
then
came
back
to
Turkey.
The
one
depicted
in
this
mosaic
is
a
Phrygian
bard
playing
the
lyre
instrument.
At
the
same
time,
the
Orpfeus
mosaic
is
the
oldest
of
the
Şanlıurfa
mosaics,
dating
back
to
194
AD.
I
am
sure
that
you
will
experience
the
atmosphere
of
that
era
in
your
bones
during
your
visit.
