Spend a day in Birgi
Ödemiş · İzmir · Türkiye
A lion hides at the southeast corner of Birgi's Great Mosque: a marble sculpture reused from an earlier building. Find and photograph it from the street, then look for stone meeting timber on a house façade. Remember Birgi, on UNESCO's World Heritage Tentative List, through these layers of time.
