一大片五颜六色的郁金香给人带来的诱惑不言而喻。郁金香原产于中亚，从弗农山庄园到土耳其伊斯坦布尔熙熙攘攘的街道，这些球茎植物深受世界各地人们的喜爱。但郁金香不仅仅是装饰性花卉，它们还具有重要的文化意义。在不同的传统中，郁金香代表着爱情、生命、美丽和激情。在艺术作品中，郁金香常常被描绘成重生或青春的象征。

伊斯坦布尔的埃米尔甘公园是郁金香的天堂。公园里的郁金香种类繁多，达到令人眼花缭乱的程度。每年春天，这些郁金香都会为公园增添万花筒般的色彩。整个公园很大，囊括了120多种珍稀植物，还可以将博斯普鲁斯海峡的美景尽收眼底。如果你还没去过，那现在可以考虑动身了，因为春天是前往这个中东国家旅行的绝佳时机。

Tulips at Emirgan Park in Istanbul, Türkiye

There's something to be said about the allure of a bed of colorful tulips. Originating from Central Asia, these bulbous plants are beloved worldwide, from the gardens of Mount Vernon, Washington, to the parks and avenues of Istanbul, Türkiye. But tulips are more than just decorative flowers. They represent love, life, beauty, and passion in various traditions and are often depicted in art as a symbol of rebirth or youth.

Emirgan Park in Istanbul celebrates tulips in all their glory, as the city hosts its annual tulip festival. The park boasts a dazzling variety of these flowers that paint the landscape with a kaleidoscope of colors. It is also home to more than 120 species of rare plants and trees, with gorgeous views of the Bosporus strait.

如梅利堡垒，土耳其

土耳其是一个温暖的地中海国家，偶尔也会下雪。而今天照片里伊斯坦布尔的冬日雪景，则让如梅利堡垒的轮廓更加清晰可见。梅利堡垒是15世纪由奥斯曼帝国苏丹建造的，目的是为了掌握博斯普鲁斯海峡的海上交通。博斯普鲁斯海峡连接马尔马拉海和黑海，将伊斯坦布尔分为“欧洲一侧”和“亚洲一侧”。如今，这座堡垒不再用于向船只开火，而是用作博物馆和音乐会场地。几百年来，尽管这里已经变了很多，但这里美丽的风景依然如旧。

Rumelihisarı in Istanbul, Türkiye

Though Türkiye usually lives up to expectations as a warm Mediterranean country, snow occasionally falls here. This winter dusting of Istanbul, Türkiye's largest city, brings into sharper focus the lines of Rumelihisarı in the center of our image. The structure, also known as Rumeli Fortress, was built in the 15th century by an Ottoman sultan as a way to choke naval traffic through the narrow Bosporus Strait. The Bosporus connects the Sea of Marmara to the Black Sea, separating Istanbul into what is often referred to as its 'European side' and 'Asian side.' Today, the fortress isn't used to fire upon ships but serves as a museum and concert venue. While the place has changed over the centuries, the killer view hasn't.
