Çanakkale Epic Promotion Centre

The main museum related to the Gallipoli campaign goes by the curious name, Çanakkale Epic Promotion Centre. It's a nice, little museum, basically displays of uniforms, some diorama re-creations. The war comes alive, sort of.

Striking exterior.

Inside, uniforms and nervous expressions. "They were just kids!"

Mano a mano in a big diorama throw down. Out of the trenches and leading with bayonets.

Back down in the trenches, quiet moments of ammo supplies and a letter from home.

Diorama of a Turkish symbol. It's he-man, Corporal Seyit. He's famous for lugging super heavy artillery shells in the Ottoman defense on March 18, 1915. Looks tough. And inspiring.
