Turmusayya

Tormusayya is one of small villages in Palestine is located northeast of Ramallah which is almost 22Km away. Turmosayya nearly size is about 18,000 acres. It is also the last village in Ramallah County from the northern side of the region. The closest house from the Jerusalem-Nablus highway is only 100 meters away.
On the west, the village of SINGIL surrounds Tormusayya, to the east is ABU FALAH, south is AL-MAZRA'A AL-SHARKEEAH, and to the north is KARIUT, which is located in Nablus County.
Fifty years ago, there was a town called “Turmosaya” a small village in Palestine. It was so small that everybody knew each other well as they were in the same family. Time goes by, everything has changed so much that you may not believe that “Turmos aya ” was once surrounded new buildings . Now, the town is considered one of the best places for summer vacation especially when turmusaya people established Equestrian Club at the top of a mountain of Turmosayya village.
When we said Turmusayya few of people really understand what it mean or Sense of the word in the original but it's good to know its meaning Because it popular story and enjoyable. Because of its meaning to a person who was called "Trmus" and was responsible for collecting taxes for the village but when it came his turn refused to pay. For that named the village of his name “ Turmosayya village " Trmos refused
I notice as the entire student do Turmosayya is a beautiful village and it had special situation. I could saw many empty lands without any buildings or people that are make me felt comfortable. Maybe the most things I like in this pretty land grass with lighting and trees with flowers. I think they really know how to use their land. They build many houses “beautiful houses” but also they have a lot of farmland.
I think turmosaya its have different style if we comparing it with others village in Palestine. Maybe that is because 80%form turmosaya people have American citizen and 66% of the total population are living in the U.S. so the American culture affected on them especially in the village buildings style. I noticed that almost the houses are villa style.
When I walk there, I touch the old men there more than younger maybe because the young travel to America to work or study. In addition, I noticed when I walk there, most of them old people and when you ask anyone there about his family, he answer there is some of them in America. Maybe that’s bad thing affecting in Turmosaya population so you can saw the difference in Turmosaya population between winter and summer .and in the same time, you can touch the benefits of traveling in how trmousaya developed in a short time.
In my way to Turmosaya I through at Israel’s settlement and that has caused real problem to Turmosaya. Israel’s settlement took about 800 kilometers from Turmosaya. In addition, I think that is makes many barriers in transitions.
When you go to Turmosaya the most important situation there is Equestrian Club in the top of the village. It is nice and considers how Turmosaya people try to develop their village. I really like the Arabian horses there with different color. I saw different kind of them and more one size .I love horses look when it looking to us from the window in the second level. I advice everyone who love riding horses to go there and try this public club and saws how much Turmosaya people kind.
In conclusion, I would to tell everybody we have to care about our village as turmosaya people do even almost of them outside their home but in the same time, we have save our culture and keep it from losing or any mixing in another culture.
