Turkey Travel Facts

Turkey bridges two continents and thousands of years of history. Istanbul alone spans Europe and Asia across the Bosphorus, combining Byzantine churches, Ottoman mosques, and a rooftop bar scene that rivals any world capital. Beyond Istanbul, the country unfolds into the fairy-chimney landscapes of Cappadocia, the ancient ruins of Ephesus and Troy, the turquoise Mediterranean coast of the Turkish Riviera, and the thermal pools of Pamukkale. With excellent value for money, direct flights from most European cities, and a food culture that ranks among the world's greatest, Turkey consistently delivers one of the most rewarding travel experiences in the region.
