Turkey is located in a very strategically place, where Europe and Asia meet. Separated by the Bosphorus, Istanbul is placed on the two continents and has a nearly 3,000 years of history. Turkey is a world crossroads for practically everywhere. The country possesses a wealthy cultural heritage with its Byzantine churches, mosques from the Ottoman Empire, such as the Blue Mosque, the Topkapi Palace, Greek ruins, and the city of Troy. Istanbul is a great tourist destination where you can visit the remarkable Aya Sofya Church, walk around the Grand Bazaar and stop by for a delicious kebab at Istiklal Caddesi and Sultanahmed in the Old City.
The capital of Turkey, Ankara is located hinterland in the country. As an administrative and government centre, the city has fewer places to visit such as the Hisar, a Byzantine citadel, the Museum of Anatolian Civilisations and Kemel Ataturk's Mausoleum. There are many ancient Romans ruins around the capital as well as the Presidential Mansion.
Ephesus, the most excellent preserved antique Turkish city is located in the Eastern Mediterranean. The city is probably the best place in the world to sense the ancient Roman times. Visit Ionia's Temple of Diana, Grotto of the Seven Sleepers the colossal Harbour Gymnasium, the grand marble-paved Arcadian Way; the impressive Temple of Hadrian and don't miss the Basilica of St. John located near the city.
Mix that with warm sun, exotic food, and a different human and natural landscape and you have a fabulous holiday and marvel at one of the most exciting places on Earth.
By car you can see the sights of Gallipoli, Trop, Bodrum, Antalya and the south coast, as well as Cappadocia.
