Cities & Regions of Turkey

Istanbul

Uniting Europe and Asia, Istanbul’s long list of attractions points to the Turkish city’s importance over centuries. Here atmospheric bazaars lead to soaring minarets, and ancient cobbled streets to the ever-inspiring Hagia Sophia and Blue Mosque. At the same time, the modern business district gives an insight into contemporary Turkish culture.

Antalya and Mediterranean Coast

Antalya is where ancient relics drift down towards the sparkling blues of the eastern Mediterranean. Part of the Turkish Riviera, the region offers a spectacular ribbon of white sand beaches stretching as far as the eye can see. They are backed by an attractive city center heavy with the sounds and smells of Turkey.

From the whirling dervishes of Konya to cosmopolitan Ankara, few regions have such diversity. Drift among the fairytale landscapes of Cappadocia or delve into a range of archaeological sites, the options are wide and varied.
