Beypazarı is a municipality and district of Ankara Province, Türkiye. Its area is 1,697 km2, and its population is 48,357 (2022). The name Beypazarı means The Bey's market in Turkish, as in the Ottoman period this was an important military base and the cavalry stationed here were an important element of the local economy.
Beypazarı today is a small town in a rural district famous for its carrots, (producing nearly 60% of Turkey's carrots), silverwork (Telkari), and a high quality natural mineral water. The crystal mineral trona, a kind of natural soda used in glass-making is extracted in Beypazarı. With its rich history, architectural heritage and attractive rocky countryside Beypazarı is becoming increasingly attractive to visitors, especially day-trippers from Ankara. The cobbled streets of white Ottoman period buildings are particularly attractive; many of the old houses have been restored as hotels and restaurants (and are also popular with Turkish film directors looking for authentic locations. Every June the town holds its popular Traditional Historical Houses, Handicrafts, Carrot and stew Festival. The visitors of course are bringing valuable income to the town, shopping for silverware and providing good custom for the food markets and restaurants.
For many visitors a major attraction is the cuisine, which includes typical Turkish dishes such as the yoghurt drink ayran, cracked wheat (or flour), yoghurt, and vegetables fermented then dried and mixed with water to make a thick soup tarhana, stuffed vine leaves, home-made sausage mumbar, and a stew cooked in a stone-oven called güveç. Sweets include the sweet cream pudding called höşmerim and pastries including a dry buttery biscuit called Beypazarı kurusu, and a renowned 80-layer baklava.
Beypazarı is a member of the European Association of Historic Towns and Regions (EAHTR).

Unter diesem Namen kennt der Dresdner ein Universitätsgebäude.
Wikipedia weiß Folgendes dazu:
Der Beyer-Bau der Technischen Universität Dresden wurde von 1910 bis 1913 für die Abteilung Bauingenieurwesen der TH Dresden vom Architekten Martin Dülfer errichtet.
Die denkmalgeschützte Gebäudegruppe beherbergt auch heute noch die Fakultät Bauingenieurwesen, das Institut für Angewandte Photophysik der Fachrichtung Physik sowie die Professur für Astronomie der Fachrichtung Geowissenschaften.
Der heutige Beyer-Bau wurde am 11. Oktober 1913 in Anwesenheit des sächsischen Königs Friedrich August III. seiner Bestimmung übergeben. Er wurde als Gebäude einer von Dülfer geplanten „Hochschulstadt“ von ihm realisiert.
Dem Konzept folgte noch 1917–1926 der Fritz-Foerster-Bau, ansonsten blieb das von Dülfer entwickelte Konzept auf der Strecke.
Bereits vor ein paar Jahren besuchte ich das Univiertel der Elbmetropole, damals wurde hier im Innenbereich saniert. Inzwischen sind diese Arbeiten abgeschlossen, dafür ist der Bau von außen mit Gerüsten verkleidet.
Das fand ich schade, denn er besitzt einen 41 Meter hohen Observatoriums-turm - eine Landmarke im Stadtbild.
Wen es interessiert, wer der Namensgeber war, dessen Konterfei auch diese Halle schmückt, der kann es hier nachlesen.

University of Manchester, Oxford Road, Manchester
Having snapped the main entrance, we decided to have a wander around the inside, just so we could all say, “we went to Manchester University”. What a delight, so peaceful inside and what a building.
I always like to add a bit of text to my images and researching this was a double delight as the building is named after Charles Beyer of Beyer-Peacock fame. It might not mean much to you but that is an icon railway locomotive name so excuse me for adding the background text I found on the University website…
The Beyer Building opened in 1887 to house geology, zoology and botany. It was named for Charles Beyer (1813–1876), a German-born engineer and a major donor to Owens College.
Charles Beyer was an accomplished engineer, known worldwide for Beyer-Peacock railway locomotives. Like other German engineers and industrialists in Manchester he appreciated and supported scientific education in colleges – rather than simply relying on training by apprenticeship, which remained the usual British route.
Beyer was born in Saxony to a family of hand weavers. He was apprenticed as a boy to this un-remunerative trade but a doctor, who had chanced to see one of his drawings, persuaded his parents to send him to the polytechnic at Dresden. After four frugal years there he went to work in Chemnitz – here the local mill owners paid him to visit Britain to report on innovations in cotton spinning. Aged 21 he then moved to Manchester, initially working as a low-paid draughtsman. He was soon assisting the principal partner Richard Roberts, an inventor of genius but with little mathematics or draughtsmanship.
After Roberts retired in 1843, Beyer was the company's chief engineer for ten years, after which he set up in partnership with Richard Peacock to specialise in locomotives. Their forge and factory in Gorton, east Manchester, supplied thousands of locomotives to railways across the globe until 1966. Beyer died in 1876 at his country home in Wales, leaving £100,000 to the College (about £8 million in today's money). The legacy helped fund the appointment of new professors and the provision of new buildings.
The Beyer Building was connected to the Manchester Museum, opened the same year, which contained the specimens used in teaching and research.
From the founding of Owens College in 1851, natural history had been taught by William Crawford Williamson, who had been the first curator of the Natural History Society's museum in Manchester. His specialism was fossil plants for which he acquired a world reputation. At Owens he taught botany until his retirement in 1892, having successively handed over geology and zoology to younger teachers with more formal training.
Geology had been taken over in 1874 by William Boyd Dawkins. He had become fascinated by extinct mammals as a geology student in Oxford, and after graduation he worked on the Geological Survey with Thomas Henry Huxley. Like Williamson, Dawkins first came to Manchester as the curator of the museum, just before the collections moved to the new buildings of Owen College. He was largely responsible for the layout of the Manchester Museum when it opened in 1887. Widely known for studies on ancient hyenas, rhinoceroses and early man, Dawkins also consulted for a projected Channel tunnel in 1882 and helped discover the Kent coalfield.
Zoology was taught from 1879 by Arthur Milnes Marshall, who had studied biological sciences – especially embryology – at Cambridge. At Owens he worked on the development of the brain. A brilliant teacher and evening lecturer, he was also a keen mountaineer. Like several Victorian scientists, he died young in a climbing accident.
Williamson's successor in botany, Frederick Ernest Weiss, came from Bradford but had been educated in Germany universities. He greatly expanded the department and served for a time as acting vice-chancellor. Like Williamson, he was interested in coal fossils. From 1904, Marie Stopes also worked here on palaeobotany – the first woman lecturer in the Faculty of Science. She later became famous for her book Married Love and her advocacy of birth control.

the Ilyas Bey Mosque is in the miletos ruins, built in 1400 A.D. by Ilyas Bey from The Anatolian Turkish Beylik of Menteşe (1260-1424). The mosque has a square floor plan surmounted by a central dome but the minaret has collapsed.
Immer häufiger sieht man hierzulande die tschechische Baureihe 388. Hier kommt uns am 07.09.23 bei Beyern die 388 002 mit ihrer Kesselwagenfuhre entgegen. Falkenberg ist gleich erreicht.
