Mount Süphan and the poppies flowering in Bitlis’ Ahlat area together are a visual feast.
Mount Süphan, Turkey’s third-highest mountain, lies on the border of the Patnos district in Ar, Erciş district in Van, and Adilcevaz district in Bitlis. It is beautiful all year long. On Mount Süphan, which has snow on its summit in each of the four seasons and astounds people with its magnificence, poppies are currently in bloom.
While red poppy flowers are in bloom in the fields along the Ahlat-Malazgirt road, nature photographers record the unusual panorama that arises with the integration of poppy fields and Mount Süphan, resulting in breathtaking landscapes.

Ahin Erefolu, a wildlife photographer, expressed his happiness at adding authentic photos to his archives and incorporating the image of Mount Süphan covered in crimson poppy blossoms. Mount Süphan and poppies created the landscape. Erefolu cried out:
“What a wonderful poppy field this is. We found a magnificent picture with yellow flowers, crimson and white poppies, and purple flowers. As you can see, Lake Van is in front of us and snow-capped Mount Süphan is in the background. We most certainly invite our friends who enjoy taking pictures to take pictures here. It lasts an additional 10 days and begins anew every year at this time. I hope they also witness these wonders.”
