What makes this place unique

The Hasankeyf shores of the artificial lake formed by the filling of the Ilısu Dam now host a new lake ecosystem.

Terrain, waters and landscape

Waters

Hasankeyf Dam Lake formed a large body of water around Hasankeyf by flooding a part of the Tigris Valley. This new water ecosystem in the south of Batman has become a stopover point on migration routes for waterbirds. You can make an inspection from the Harita section to see the width of the basin.
