Participants, who will stay at Salihli Lidya Hotel for 7 days, will attend introductory trainings about the geopark in the hotel meeting room, and at other times they will have the chance to see the geopark on site. Within the scope of the project, educational trips will be organized to Adala Canyon, Sart Ruins, Kula Fairy Chimneys and Kula Volcanic Lands located within the Kula-Salihli UNESCO Global Geopark, accompanied by experienced, expert guides.
