Evliya Çelebi Seyahatnamesi", 1994'te yitirdiğimiz, yeri doldurulamaz değerli Türkolog Orhan Şaik Gökyay'ın her zaman ve en çok ilgisini çeken eserlerden biri olmuştu. Gökyay, bu dil anıtı üzerine yoğunlaşma imkanını ancak ömrünün son yıllarında bulabildi. 1988 yılında, seyahatnamenin birinci cildinin, Topkapı Sarayı Müzesi Kütüphanesi Bağdat 304'te kayıtlı bulunan ve birçok araştırmacının müellif nüshası kabul ettiği yazması üzerinde çalışmaya başladı. Transkripsiyonlu Metin, Sözlük ve Dizin olarak üç cilt halinde düşündüğü eserin yazık ki sadece transkripsiyonlu metin kısmını hazırlayabildi. Sonradan, metin üzerindeki çalışmalar, onun çizdiği çerçeve içinde sürdürülüp tamamlandı. Ayrıca, Yücel Dağlı'nın, Orhan Şaik Gökyay'ın izniyle İstanbul Üniversitesi'nde yüksek lisans tezi olarak hazırladığı "Evliya Çelebi Seyahatnamesi'nin 1. Cildindeki Yer ve Şahıs İsimleri İndeksi (1994)", bu yayın dolayısıyla yeniden gözden geçirildi. Bu çalışmaya rütbeler, kurumlar, terimler, bitkiler, meydanlar, camiler... vb. önemli-önemsiz hemen her şeyin eklenmesiyle geniş bir "Dizin" oluşturuldu.Böylece, ortaya hem Evliya Çelebi'nin hem de Orhan Şaik Gökyay'ın önemlerine yaraşır bu kitap çıktı; kıvançla sunuyoruz.

Evliya Celebi was a traveller,a tourist of the XVII century,that visited not only the otoman empire and its neighbours.He has seen Asia,Arabia,Egypt,Russia,Germany,Holand and even Sweden.He was the most magnificient traveller to me because he has written in details everything that he has seen and noticed.Celebi studies the history,geography,economy,architecture,social life,everything that he has seen and heard.I read only the chapter where he describes Albania.To have a better understanding,I will take an example.
Vlora:the origin of the name,a detailed describtion of the fortress(angels,walls,weapons,perimeter,highness),architecture of the religious buildings,the number of the solders,villages,how it is life organised.
Then it continues with the agriculture,neighbourhoods,foods,shops that are in total 117.Everything except water is in a good condition.
He appreciates the food especially the fish,oil,honey that smells good,olive oil,grape,orange.
People are good-looking,especially the youth.Boys are brave,rebels,proud and wear short clothes.
I really enjoyed the book,it was like a time capsule,it stimulated my imagination a lot.I started comparing the cities now with the cities 360 years ago.
