A rock in Trabzon, Türkiye, where Egyptian footballer Mohamed Salah was pictured resting, has turned into a popular attraction for tourists and football fans following his social media post.
Dubbed Salahtaşı (Salah's Rock), the site in Maçka has drawn visitors eager to replicate the forward's pose for photographs.
Local reactions have included humorous suggestions to rename the surrounding plateau, while nearby shop owners have expressed hopes that Salah will return for tea.
As crowds continue to visit the site, makeshift directional signs have been set up to guide visitors.
The trend follows Salah's impressive start with Süper Lig side Trabzonspor, where he scored a hat-trick in a recent 4-0 victory over Galatasaray, taking his league tally to seven goals.
