My first postcard from Turkey was from Seda. We were both in the Water RR Group 189, so she sent me a card of one of the most popular waterfalls in Turkey.
3 kilometers from the village of Manavgat, one will find a beautiful body of water 2 meters high and 40 meters wide. Yes, the Manavgat Waterfalls may not be high, but the powerful current causes the white foamy water to rush down the rocks and flow into the river and the trout-filled streams.

| From 1968-1983, the image of the Managat Waterfalls adorned the reverse side of the 5 lira banknote |
The postcard came with these stamps:
 |
| Mimar Sinan was the architect of over 360 Ottoman structures; the other stamp shows ancient Turkish art dated back to the Hittite period |
