Bacıoğlu added that the "sunflowers" planted in the 1 million 210 thousand acres in Edirne had turned the city into a vast flower garden.
The colorful spectacle will continue until August, as the fields painted yellow with sunflowers planted on 1 million 650 thousand acres in Tekirdağ also create beautiful views for drivers and passengers.
The sunflower fields painted in yellow attract the attention of both locals and photography enthusiasts who want to capture this moment.
Tekirdağ's Minister of Culture and Tourism, Ahmet Hacıoğlu, stated that the sunflower fields, resembling a natural studio, also contributed to the city's tourism.
Hacıoğlu expressed that the sunflower fields would add a unique beauty to the city, saying, "Tekirdağ's yellow bride creates very beautiful scenes. From April with canola, followed by lavender, and then in July, sunflower fields add color. The sunflowers have turned the city into a natural studio. People traveling on the historical Çanakkale road take breaks and capture memories in these beautiful fields. They take photos in this natural studio."
Hacıoğlu stated that the colorful spectacle in the fields of the city started in April and continued until August, saying, "When people see Tekirdağ in its yellow bride attire on social media or in the news, they rush here, taking advantage of its proximity to Istanbul. Visitors not only take photographs but also explore other aspects of tourism. They enjoy the city's gastronomy, its sea, and even try paragliding. People find various tourism opportunities here."
