Short guide to Turkey

Lodged between Europe and the Middle East and caught between the traditional and the modern, Turkey is a fusion of both eastern and western cultures. There is everything to find in Turkey from modern shopping centres to traditional marketplaces. Turkey has been the centre for two great civilisations, namely, the capital of Christianity and the Byzantine Empire before it was conquered by the Muslim armies and turned into the centre of the Islamic state.

In more recent times Turkey has been transformed into a secular country where religion plays less of a role in government politics.

There are numerous different landscapes and environments to enjoy in Turkey. People interested in history will be over the moon with the historical artefacts and architecture found in this culturally rich and fascinating country. People looking for a sunny resort to escape to from colder weather from will not be disappointed either. Based in the Mediterranean, this country enjoys a pleasant climate. Shopping enthusiasts will be more than happy, for there are numerous shopping venues and souks to spend your money on.

Istanbul is the capital city of Turkey. Based between Europe and Asia, this was the centre of the Ottoman Empire for numerous centuries. Fabulous architecture exists in the city. Most notably the blue Mosque and Topkapi Palace are unmissable sites to see.

The marketplace in Istanbul is gigantic and based on the traditional souk style. Mostly covered, this proverbial maze of bazaars and stalls will leave you spoilt for choice. From rugs and jewellery to spices and scents it is a good idea to purchase something upon seeing it for it can be quite difficult to relocate a particular stall once again.

Other interesting destinations in Turkey include Cappacodia, Troy and Ephesus. You will find a different side to Turkey over here from volcanic landscapes to sandy beaches and a haven for a variety of different watersports.

The Western side of Turkey proves to be more popular with the tourists. Seaside resorts and beautiful coastlines bathed in sunshine prove to be a powerful magnet for holiday makers. The people are warm and friendly and will leave the visitor with pleasant memories of their stay.

Turkiksh is the official language in Turkey, however, English is widely understood and spoken in the capital city and major tourist centres. No vaccination is required if travelling to the region but it is recommended whilst there to be careful about your eating and drinking. It would be a wise idea to limit yourself to drinking bottled water and ensure you avoid eating food provided by temporary street vendors.
