When you get to Van, be sure to check out the Archeological Museum of Van, and this can be found in the city. Although it is not as large as some of the museums in Turkey, you will still enjoy their collection of ancient artifacts that goes all the way back to the period of the Kingdom of Urarta. Another must-see place is the Husrev Pasa Camii or the Kursunlu Cami. This mosque was erected in the year 1567. The Kizil cami or the Tebriz Kapi Camii is also worth a visit. This is another mosque that was erected during the 13th and the 14th century. Here, you will surely enjoy the minaret which was created using bricks that were assembled in a diamond pattern. These are just some of the places that you can visit in Van, so you better have a cheap car hire from Van Downtown to take you to all of them. A cheap car hire from Van Downtown is way better than going on a guided tour because you also get to stay longer in a specific area as compared to a guided tour, and a cheap car hire will prove really beneficial for you when you are doing your shopping in the city.
