Alanya Little ones are walking towards the future with their nomadic heritage

Alanya The 8th International Children's Festival, organized by the Municipality, continues to convey the cultural richness of the city to young generations. In the event area where different cultures come together, programs specially prepared for children attract great attention. As part of the festival, little ones not only have fun but also have the opportunity to discover the roots of the local Yoruk culture. In the case of Alanya, where cultural transfer is of great importance for the identity of the city, such events both strengthen the local people's sense of belonging and prevent thousands of years of traditions from disappearing.

Forgotten Games Come to Life

The most striking part of the events were traditional children's games belonging to the Yoruk culture. Children had pleasant moments with Gübüdük, one of the local games unearthed. With the vision of Alanya Mayor Osman Tarık Özçelik and the municipal administration, the Flying Ram game, which was accepted to the UNESCO National Inventory of Intangible Cultural Heritage, was also greatly appreciated by the children at the festival.

Traditions are Entrusted to Future Generations

Bringing together entertainment and learning, the festival directly contributes to the physical and cultural development of children. Thanks to the cultural heritage preservation efforts of the Alanya Municipality, centuries-old Yoruk traditions are being reunited with the children of the modern age. Authorities emphasize that such organizations will continue to increase in order to keep local values alive and to make children adopt the historical texture of the city.
