The first evidence of life in Izmit dates back to the 12th century. The Phrygians protected the region at that time. Later on, a group of immigrants from Greece settled in the region where Ba\u015fiskele is located today.<\/p>\n<p>Ak\u00e7a Koca, the governor of the Hendek and Adapazar\u0131 regions of the time, conquered there by himself during the time of Orhan Gazi and and as a result, the city was captured by the Ottoman State. In the Ottoman period, the name of the city was Smiti, which meant \u201cgathering\u201d in Greek. Later, his name became Izmit.<\/p>\n<p>After staying in Istanbul until 1888, Izmit became a separate city. The city, which was under British and Greek occupation before the War of Independence, joined the Turkish territory on June 28, 1921. Kocaeli has been one of the fastest growing cities in the industry with the Republic.\u00a0 The reason for this is its proximity to Istanbul and the transportation is very easy.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2>Places to go in Kocaeli<\/h2>\n<ol>\n<li>\n<h3>The Museum Of Osman Hamdi Bey<\/h3>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>You should definitely see the mansion of Osman Hamdi Bey, one of the most famous Turkish painters who lived in the Ottoman period.
