Magical Turkey

Few countries in the world can indulge a traveler as Turkey does - from the historic quarters in Istanbul, dominated by the Blue Mosque and the Topkapi Palace, to the stunning chimney rock formations of Cappadocia, from the beaches on black sea and the Mediterranean to the unexplored borders with Georgia & Armenia, from belly-dancers to whirling dervishes, from Turkish coffee to the kebabs to the baklava – Turkey has something for every traveler. While seeking its own identity amidst European and Asian influences, Turkey certainly has made a unique position for itself on the global tourist map.
