Turkey
Bridging the gap between Europe and Asia, Turkey’s vast landmass contains a striking variety of historical treasures, incredible landscapes, beguiling cultures and mouth-watering cuisines.
On the shores of the Bosphorus and straddling two continents, Istanbul is a city of spices and spires, its Ottoman mosques, Byzantine churches and covered bazaars providing endless fascination. By the Mediterranean, luxurious resorts vie for the best spots on the Bodrum Peninsula and along the Turquoise Coast, so named by early visitors amazed by the vibrant colour of the water.
Away from the resorts, history in Turkey is carried in the dust, from the ancient sites of Troy and Pergamon to the battlefields of Gallipoli and the ruins of Ephesus, perhaps the best-preserved classical city in the eastern Mediterranean. Equally astonishing are Turkey’s otherworldly landscapes, not least the dazzling white terraces and calcium-rich pools of Pamukkale and the lunar-like landscapes of ethereal Cappadocia, where conical rocks known as ‘fairy chimneys’ erupt from the desert floor, some soaring as high as five-storey buildings.
