Urfa is famous for to be the city of the prophet Abraham. There is a big contrast between the old and the new city, useless to say which is better. The area of the mosque is simply amazing, and visiting during the Ramadan you can "breath" a deep spirituality. During the night all the people came in the garden around the mosque to eat all together and listen religious music, giving if is possible even more beauty.
In the hillside, always in the mosque zone, there are some restaurants where you can eat or smoke a narghile' with a beautiful view, i suggest here to come to watch the sunset and enjoy this peace.
There is also a small bazar, with a nice courtyard with some bars, a meeting place for have a drink, chat and play backgammon. A really eastern atmosphere.
