5 Must Visit Places in Turkey

in #travel7 years ago (edited)

Turkey

Located in the south of Europe with Ankara standing as its capital city and is probably most attracted country as a resort by other European countries, mostly from Nordic and Scandinavian. It has an incredible and unique nature, borders even four wonderful seas! Black Sea, Aegean Sea, Mediterranean Sea and Sea of Marmara (Sea of the Crete).


Istanbul

Even though it's not a capital, it still is the most popular city of Turkey. While I personally heaven't been there, I have few relatives and friends that have. And from their experience and from my research online, I really recommend you visiting this city if you have a chance. It has many different activities to offer. First of all, it's an amazing choice if you want to see and feel the culture of Turkey. It's also well known because of trips around the city, tasty food, good places and wonderful view in general for photographers.

Antalya

I don't really like beach-type places where there are many people, but this one is an exception. Contrast between nature and city is just breathtaking. Once standing at the beach, you can see hills, mountains, light blue water and city. This is an amazing experience for photographers, good option to spend holiday for families and just to have a great time for young tourists.

Cappadocia

Mostly known of its balloon tours. Which is not without a reason. Although it's a little pricey, but it's definitely worth it. Balloon tours offer you spectacular view of that region and even more. Usual trips last about 1h, but with additional pay it can last up to 1,5 hours. While in balloon there is a chance for you to try its famous tasty champagne and/or wine.

Ölüdeniz

Small village in a wonderful area surrounded by what they call it the 'dead sea'. And there is reason why. Even trough the strongest storms it stays calm without any signs of storm going on somewhere further. Once again it's an amazing option for families, young tourists to spend time and of course photographers.

Pamukkale

Pamukkale. Also known as 'cotton castle', which got its name because of the 'salt terraces' which formed from hot strings and mineral waters. Many people believe that it has healing powers, but usually it's being visited by tourists who just got interested and never experienced something even close to this. I personally would like to visit and relax here and would recommend you so.
