★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Lake of Abraham (Balıklı Göl),fish lake
In the heart of Turkey’s Sanliurfa old town lies the Lake of Abraham (or Pool of Sacred Fish) in the courtyard of the the Halil-ur-Rahman mosque. A series of archways line three sides of the long, narrow lake whose blue-green hues, in tandem with the adjacent verdant gardens and centuries-old plane and willow trees, contribute to the oasis-like atmosphere of the ancient site. A footpath lining the pool’s southern edge allows visitors a closer look at the water’s famous inhabitants- hundreds of carp of legendary origin. The pool is thought to be the site where Abraham was thrown into the fire by Nimrod and is a religious destination for thousands each year.
As for the historic Halil-ur-Rahman Mosque that is part of the Balıklıgöl complex, due to its central role in the legend of Abraham, it has become one of the most important religious sites in the area, along with the cave of Abraham’s birth. Built by the Ayyubis in 1211, the mosque is an excellent example of Urfa’s rich past, having once featured a temple to the ancient Near Eastern fish goddess Atargatis and having also once served as the Mother Mary Church.
