On the Honey Road

Balyolu (pronounced bal-yoll-oo) is Turkish for “honey road.” It is also the name of an
in
unusual tour on northeast Turkey.
Catherine Jaffee is a woman from Colorado in the United States. At 2008,

she went to Turkey and traveled for two years. When she reached Kars,
a historic region on Turkey, she thought of an idea for a tour. About 900 years

ago, Kars was in the Silk Road, an important trading route from Europe
and China. Kars was an important trading center in that time. Jaffee became

fascinated by the way people in Kars earn their living: beekeeping and
making honey.

Jaffee created a travel experience for visitors that
also helped local people. On a Balyolu tour, travelers

walked several miles a day at seven days. They passed
under many areas with beautiful scenery. Along the

way, the walkers met beekeepers and their families
and tasted different kinds of honey. It was the perfect

trip for anyone with a sweet tooth!
