As the Priene Ancient City Site Directorate, we successfully concluded our 1st Advisory Board Meeting on December 18–19, 2025, with the participation of academics and experts from various cities across our country.

The contributions of our local stakeholders were extremely valuable to us during this important meeting.
Within the scope of the meeting;

* Domatia Stone Hotel (Kürşat Abidin APAN) provided accommodation support,

* Karina Restaurant (Hakan BİNGÖL) organized the dinner,

* Cumhuriyet Bakery (Haldun ARICI) contributed by introducing local delicacies.

Certificates of appreciation were presented to these valuable businesses operating in Söke for their support of Priene's UNESCO World Heritage process.
The sensitivity shown by our local businesses in preserving cultural heritage and passing it on to future generations is a great source of motivation for us.

As the Söke Municipality and the Priene Ancient City Site Administration, we would like to thank all the businesses that contributed.
