Leandros Tower has many many stories this is one of them that i like it;)
in many many years ago there was a really handsome boy called Leandros.he was really handsome that when a girl saw him she was falling in love.one day he saw a really beutiful girl that he was falling in love too:)they loved each other really much and wanted to get marry!!but he was desperetly poor and the girl was a doughter of king and he did not want to this relationship.so he kept his doughter this tower because there is no road to there and if they could not see each other they will forget their love his tought!!!!but Leandros swim everynight there and they can meet!!!but one stormy night he could not fight the waves and he died!:(when his lover heard about this she killed herself:(
now people believe that they can meet everynight and they pray to God all of lovers will be together forever.
and the other legend says that a sultan had a much beloved daughter. One day, an oracle prophecised that she would die on her 18th birthday. The sultan, in an effort to thwart his daughter's early demise, had the tower built in the middle of the Bosphorus to protect his daughter until after her 18th birthday. The daughter was placed in the tower, where she was frequently visited only by her father.On the daughter's 18th birthday, the sultan brings a basket of fruit as a birthday gift. Upon inspecting the basket, a poisonous snake that had been hiding amongst the fruit bites her and the daughter dies, just as predicted. and this is the other one hope you like it!!!
