Abstract

People are constantly walking around the earth, since the first traveler of humanity Hz. Adam. Travels become a travel book, and the traveler becomes a traveler only by writing what is seen. In this context, travelers are expected to masterfully reflect what they see and experience as much as the places they visit. Like many Anatolian children, Ihsan Sureyya Sirma, who traveled to study, spent a significant part of his life on travels. Most of these travels, which should also be considered as a science journey, were carried out under the identity of “historian”. In this study, the travels of Ihsan Sureyya Hoca and his works “Daglarin Sirri (The Secret of the Mountains), Nehirlerin Dili (The Language of the Rivers), Seyahatnâme-i Sureyya (The Travel Book of Sureyya), Cin Muslumanlari ve Cin’e Seyahat (The Muslims of China and Travel to China, Ano Yemen (Yemen) and Yalan Dunyayi Adimlarken (Stepping into the World of Lies) are examined. This study will focus on what Hodja paid attention to in his travel notes, messages and some anecdotes and scope of his travels.
