Yörük Ali Efe Evi Museumvisitor guide.

Yörük Ali Efe (1895–1951) Kuvâ-yi Milliye Commander Yörük Ali Efe was born in 1895 in Kavaklı Village, Sultanhisar District, Aydın Province. In his will requesting burial in Yenipazar, he said: 'Its people are kind, love the land, and those loving the land love humans. I will rest in peace there.' His grave in Muslukuyu Cemetery was moved to the museum garden by Council of Ministers decree. The museum exhibits personal effects, photographs, War of Independence photos, and ethnographic items. His reply to praise will always be remembered: 'Some attribute wartime deeds to me and others. That is wrong. What importance could one or five people have in such great causes? Every patriot feeling love of country thought and felt as we did and stood with us. Claiming the lion's share in national resistance is wrong. Can one hand make applause?' He was awarded the Medal of Independence by the Grand National Assembly. Leader of Efes Yörük Ali Did you pass through Dalaman? Did you drink cold waters? Did you choose Yörük Ali among the Efes?
