subject: Turkey Culturally Enriching And An Extraordinary Beach Destination [print this page] There are many things that make Turkey a worthy destination, but whether youll be convinced or not depends on the way you want to spend your holidays. Turkey offers solutions for most of a tourists needs, especially summer holidays.
If youre looking for a pleasant stay near the beach, Turkey offers many resorts to try, each one with its own charm and feel, like Antalya, Marmaris, Kusadasi and many more. They have been an attraction and a preferred destination for many European tourists over the years, because theyre fairly affordable and they offer the perfect service youd expect at a seaside resort. So if you like to be spoiled on the beaches of Turkey, these are the places you should be aware of.
On the other hand , Turkey is not all beaches, and that is certainly not the only
thing to see there. One of the most interesting places there is to see is Istanbul, which is the clash of Eastern Asian Culture and European tradition. Being a key city in the Ottoman Empire, as well as way before, when it was still called Constantinople, Istanbul is a city situated on the passage between the Black and the Mediterranean sea, which has made it a great trade center in the past, and a historical sight nowadays. You can visit many temples, with different styles and architectures. Well start with the most beautiful mosques like the Blue Mosque, which is enormous and astounding, many palaces like Topkap and Dolmabahce, Byzantine orthodox Christianity churches like Kariye and St. Sophia and let us not forget Roman temples. Also , one thing you absolutely must visit when in Istanbul is the covered bazaar called Kapali Carsi, which is a definite proof of inheriting traditions from previous generations.
Another place to see beside Istanbul is Cappadocia , where people once settled in volcanic rock formations and made them their homes. Its almost like it has come out of a fantasy novel, but its actually what happened way in the past. Cappadocia is also home to more than 1000 Churches inside the rock formations. Its a sight you probably wont see anywhere else in the world.
Other very interesting places to visit in Turkey are also the many remaining Greek and Roman ruins, situated on its southern coast. While this might seem boring at first, the remains of what is considered by modern archaeologists as the ancient city of Troy, is located in Turkey. So contact your agents and book your tickets to Turkey , you wont be disappointed.
