After getting of the minibus from Diyarbakir I was a little bit lost. I didn’t new anything about Mardin; had not looked at a map so had no clue where I was relative to the city center or sights and had no names of cheap hostels/hotels. After tea, logical choice since being in Turkey, I decided to take a random city minibus passing by which magically brought me to the right part of town (the other side of the hill) where the owner of a kebab shop pointed me to a cheap hotel for the night.
