ISTANBUL (AA) – Istanbulites who want to complete their needs before Eid-al-Adha have created a density in Eminönü. The Spice Bazaar in the region was the choice of those who came to the region from the morning hours. Candy, Turkish delight, nuts and chocolates were offered to the citizens on the established stalls. Shoppers also crowded in front of businesses selling breakfast items, nuts and coffee. In Eminönü, where shopping continued throughout the day, activity was also observed in souvenir and spice shops.
Shopkeeper Hasan Akbulut said that the bazaars are crowded and sales have increased, adding: “This year is a little more crowded than last year.” he said. 11The water discharged from a height of 173 meters at the Karakaya Dam and Hydroelectric Power Plant (HEPP) in Çüngüş district of Diyarbakır turned into a visual feast. The amount of water in the basin of Karakaya Dam and HEPP, Turkey’s third largest dam and second largest hydroelectric power plant, reached 9.5 billion cubic meters with heavy rainfall.
In the Karakaya Dam and HEPP, which has an installed capacity of 1800 megawatts with a total of 6 units, 2 discharge gates of the dam were opened in the first place on May 11, after 7 years, against the risk of possible floods due to the water level approaching the maximum level. The discharge of pressurized water from the dam set, whose body height is 173 meters, turned into a visual feast. Rainbows occasionally form in the region due to sunlight.
