Özet
Rivers, as natural thresholds, have redirector role on urban planning and Edirne is one of the examples of these cities. Tunca and Meriç Rivers have been determinative in the process of urban formation of Edirne. In the connection to outer world, these rivers have either restrictive or binding roles. Hadrianopolis as located along the river side in ancient Rome, after dominated by Ottoman Empire as a castle city, locations like Gazi Mihal, Yildirim and Sarayiçi are also along the river side as new settlement places. Rivers were the thresholds in the extension of Edirne in the Ottoman era. Edirne is a city rich in water, it is known that, political power has also contributed to build Beyazit complex along the water side where patients get cured by sounds of water. Otherwise, villas which had been located on the riverside in the Ottoman era point out the water-city structure of Edirne in the Ottoman time period. Nowadays, although most of the architectural values gained by water have been lost, it can be documented that Edirne was a water-city. © Peter Lang AG 2019.
