In Etrim Village, houses are generally built with stone and wood. Whitewashed walls, small windows, and courtyard-style layouts are the main features of the village architecture. This structure provides a cool living space in summer and a warm one in winter. It offers a genuine and sincere Anatolian village experience, far from tourist shows. Etrim Village has gained fame especially for its handwoven Turkish carpets. The carpets made in the village are entirely handcrafted and use the traditional Turkish knot technique. These carpets are not only household items but also a part of the village’s cultural heritage. The patterns symbolize nature, abundance, family, and the icons of Anatolia.”
