| Dervish Pasha Mansion |
|
The Mansion got its name from its previous owner Dervish Pasha, who besides being the
last judge of the country also published its first Newspaper “Zaman” (Time). The
Mansion was restored to its old former glory. Nowadays it harbours an ethnographical
museum, displaying typical artefacts from the Ottoman period.
TIP: Being located in the Arab Ahmet Quarter of Lekoþa, you could stroll
from the Dervish Paþa Mansion down the road and have a look at a recently restored
section of this quarter, which features lovingly restored old houses dating back
to the 18th and 19th century. What an atmosphere! In one of these restored homes
you can find a very nice restaurant with a different flair to it. We recommend you
visit and have a drink in their courtyard or even a meal. |
