Doğlu

Doğlu is a neighbourhood in the municipality and district of Mezitli, Mersin Province, Turkey.[1] Its population is 564 (2022).[2] Situated in the peneplane area at the south of Toros Mountains, its distance to Mersin is about 30 kilometres (19 mi). The village may be an old village. But in 1800s the village was almost emptied because of an epidemic. The Ottoman government settled people from the eastern parts of the empire. The present name Doğlu may be a corrupt form of Doğulu (“of east”). The main agricultural products of the village are olive and citrus.
