Guzelbahce

Description

Güzelbahçe is a coastal district of İzmir Province in Turkey. Both in outlook and in its economy, Güzelbahçe displays particularities of a freshly constituted administrative entity. Slum-type residences are virtually non-existent in Güzelbahçe. The mountains covered with pine forests which mark Güzelbahçe`s southern borders and which covers more than one third of the total district area are favorite spots for excursions for the inhabitants of İzmir as a whole, especially during weekends and holidays. Land used for agricultural purposes constitute slightly less than one third of the total district area in Güzelbahçe.
