15th Annual Smithsonian Magazine Photo Contest Travel
Daydreams on the edge
This photo was taken in the historic city of Mardin, in what is now southeastern Turkey. The old city is built on a hillside, the buildings made of limestone, looking south over the Mesopotamian plains. In the city streets, three languages are currently spoken -- Kurdish, Turkish, and Arabic -- over the horizon is the Syrian border where struggles and war continue to take place
