Sorry Linda I disagree with you. The `law` has it that "after 12 all music must be at a reasonable and tolerable volume and doors etc must be shut" this `law` has supposedly been in existence for at least a couple of years to my knowledge and it has been abused.So come on.. they have had plenty of warning. Finally the Belideye / Gendarma has had enough, and who can blame them.. The noise volume in Bar street, and recently some side streets has been a major complaint by hundreds of visitors for years. One bar trying to `out noise` the other bar to entice visitors in , thats been the young turkish bar staffs mentalites for years as everyone knows. Well finally at long last somethings being done to curb this problem.. and good luck to them. As for your comment about a difficult season out there this year and thats the last thing the bars need right now.. well I feel sorry for all the establishments out there that are suffering right now, but we always knew this day would come as there are too many bars, too many restaurants, too many repetitive shops. A sudden drop in visitors and this problem gets exposed and thats whats happening. Lets hope that a quiter Hisaronu is on its way and it might help in Hisaronu losing its comparisons to Marmaris
