The world-famous döner was the highlight of the traditional kitchen culture, serving over 4,000 people. The stage was alive with folk dances, music, and enchanting songs. Attendees enjoyed a diverse array of crafts and arts, from handcrafts to pottery, jewelry to carpets, marbling to calligraphy, and of course, Turkish coffee to baklava. Children also had a blast in their own corner, with activities such as moonwalks, face painting, crafts, portraits, and, of course, cotton candy and popcorn.
