 Spend time in fascinating Istanbul, the crossroads of Europe and Asia. Steeped
in history, Istanbul served as the capital of both the Romans and the Ottoman
Turks and still plays an important role on the world stage.
Head west to the moon-scaped
terrain of Cappadocia. Nowhere in the world will you find what you will see here – underground
cities, hundreds of small Byzantine churches and more. Turkey’s southern
coast boasts beautiful turquoise waters, charming villages, ancient theaters,
and other fabulous archeological sites.
 From the Hittites to the Greeks, the Romans to the Ottoman Turks, Turkey’s
geo-political importance attracted the attention of ancient people who founded
kingdoms, and empires that lasted for centuries. Today’s Turkey is progressive
and modern, while still maintaining its unique history and deep-rooted traditions – a
combination that is sure to amaze even the most seasoned traveller.
