What you Must do & Must Experience in Turkey ?
Turkey offers a range of amazing holiday experiences to the tourist : Cosmopolitan culture, heritage sites, seaside resorts and misty mountains. The obvious starting point of a tour to Turkey is the magnificent city of Istanbul.
The transcontinental city is the cultural and historical centre of the country, and straddles Asia and Europe. The beautiful Bosphorus Strait runs through the city connecting the Black Sea to the Sea of Marmara, and separating Asia from Europe. Istanbul is known for its cross-cultural architecture; the city’s historic centre is a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
The main attractions include Hagia Sophia, Topkapi Palace, The Blue Mosque, the Ethnographic Museum and the bazaars. Besides Istanbul, history buffs have much more to look forward to in Turkey: Old temples, Roman theatres, churches and mosques.
The ancient sites of Troy and Hierapolis are on the UNESCO World Heritage Sites List. The towns of Bursa, Edirne and Urfa were important centres in the Ottoman Era and before. For a more lazy vacation, the Turkish Riviera offers cruises and picturesque beaches, including Oludeniz and Patara. Gokceada and Bozcaada are touristy islands in the Aegean Sea, with great beaches.
For natural wonders, take a balloon ride over the natural rock formations (called the Goreme Fairy Chimneys) in Cappadocia, and visit the dreamlike white-terraced landscape of Pamukkale. Ankara, the capital of modern Turkey, has the Ataturk Mausoleum and the Museum of Anatolian Civilizations.
