Water lilies have bloomed... Karagöl will be developed for tourism
Karagöl in Gemlik's Feyziye neighborhood, which had dried up in recent years, has been revitalized through traditional methods and the efforts of local villagers. Water lilies are now blooming in the previously dry lake. Gemlik Mayor Şükrü Deviren stated that they will soon begin efforts to develop the lake and its surroundings for tourism.
The blooming water lilies in Karagöl have created postcard-worthy scenes, and residents have been capturing the lake's latest appearance with their phones and cameras. Feyziye Neighborhood Head Mehmet Kayan noted that the lake was on the verge of drying up before and has been somewhat revived thanks to former administrators. He emphasized that the lake and its surroundings still need some maintenance, saying, "This is our picnic area. If it's organized, it will become even more beautiful."
