Tercan-Tuzlaçayı Alevis – 31 YAYLACIK (ÇINAR) VILLAGE Formerly known as Yaylacık, now known as Çınar Village, this is the last episode of our Tercan-Tuzlaçayı Alevis documentary series. Yaylacık was the only village among the dozens of Alevi villages we have featured so far that had a cemevi, coffeehouse and restaurant in 2009. The village is located on the northwest bank of Çalkışla Creek, which flows through Aşkale lands, and is surrounded by the E-80 highway. It is one of the crowded Alevi villages of Tercan. The majority of its population is from Canbekler. .................................................. [email protected]
