is a classic Middle Eastern dessert known for its layers of crispy pastry and rich nutty fillings. It is usually made of multi-layer ultra-thin pastry, with crushed nuts such as pistachios and walnuts in the middle. After baking, it is drenched with sweet syrup, which tastes crisp, sweet but not greasy. To make it, the nuts are ground and mixed with a little sugar and cinnamon, then spread evenly between the puff pastry. Each layer of crust needs to be brushed with melted butter to ensure a crispy taste. After the baking is complete, pour the cooled syrup while hot, allowing the pastry to fully absorb the sweetness of the syrup. Its origins date back to the Ottoman Empire and are now often served with black tea or coffee.

It is a single blade weapon from Türkiye during the Ottoman Empire. Its characteristic is having a reverse curved or concave blade, with a size between a military knife and a machete. The design allows it to both pierce and cut, with a blade width that remains consistent from the handle to the tip, which is not common in other similar weapons. It was first widely used in the 16th century, especially by the elite Ottoman army - Janissary. Not only is it known for its practicality in combat, but it has also become a symbol of identity and status due to its decorative and symbolic qualities. The hilt of a sword is usually made of bones, horns, silver, or ivory, and is divided into two wide ears on the left and right sides.

It is a landmark building in Thessaloniki, the second largest city in Greece. The 34 meter high tower is located at the end of the city's seaside promenade and is one of the most famous landmarks in the city. It can be traced back to the Ottoman Empire period, initially built as a defensive fortification and later used as a prison and execution site, witnessing the suffering and history of Thessaloniki. Nowadays, the White Tower has been transformed into a museum and cultural center, showcasing the history of Thessaloniki from the Ottoman Empire period to modern times. The exterior walls were painted white, symbolizing peace and rebirth, becoming a symbol of free thought and culture in Thessaloniki.
