This work details the extensive travels of the author through various regions, including Europe, Asia, and Africa during the seventeenth century, emphasizing his observations on different cultures, histories, and landscapes. The narrative captures both the grandeur and the intricacies of the locations he visits, offering insights into the social, political, and architectural elements of the time. At the start of the narrative, Evliya Efendi sets off from Constantinople with a group of companions to explore the town of Brússa. His journey begins with praise to God, reflecting his devotional mindset and the cultural significance of travel in fulfilling religious duties. As he describes the route taken by boat to Modania and eventually to Brússa, he details the scenic views and socio-economic activities of the towns and villages encountered along the way. His encounters highlight the historical significance of Brússa, a former capital of the Ottoman Empire, where he admires the architectural marvels, such as mosques and baths, that delineate the character of the region. The opening establishes a vivid sense of the landscapes and the cultural reflections of a traveler eager to absorb the sights, experiences, and legacies of the places he visits.
