"Asıklar Kıraathanesi"

Famous cafe,Aşıklar Kıraathanesi, reopened in Kars after 9 years. Aşıklar Kıraathanesi was established by Murat Cobanoglu which was famous singer in Anatollian. This cafe tried to resume  Anatolian music style which is called “Aşıklık Gelenegi” in Turkisch. Unfortunately Murat Cobanoglu died in 2005. After his dead, Aşıklar Kıraathanesi could not continue their purpose. Therefore it was closed in 2005.


However last week, Aşıklar Kıraathanesi opened again by Murat Cobanoglu’s students. Now on people can visit this cafe and listen our traditional music.

I assume that most people didn’t know Murat Cobanoglu and his cafe. Therefore I posted some videos about them. I recommend you to watch it.
