To get to Kurtkulağı (Wolf’s ear) you take a not-infrequent bus from Ceyhan. The town may be larger than the part I saw, because I came with one purpose only, to see the newly restored Caravanserai. As it turned out, a few hundred meters further on there is a nice mosque also, and that is about it. The whole area, I was told, had formerly been walled in, in a "sur", and also that there had been a fortress on a hilltop (if so, I did not bother to get there this time: I visited town on a scorching September day in 2008, so the sight of some cacti was only fitting).

And may I request the town council cover the hole along the side of one of the roads, obviously meant for rain water? I can see the necessity of it being there, but to leave it uncovered, 50 centimetres by 35 I’d say, turns it into a tourist trap of a variety that almost cost me my camera and some bruises when I fell in. It was not very deep, luckily, but my knee has been hurting for a week. People at the tea houses that saw my downfall will remember that tall Dutchman and can point out where to repair.
