Posted date: 03 Jul 2021
Turkey is a fantastic place to visit because it is so different! Turkey has a lot to offer, from the mix of cultures in huge cities like Istanbul to hot-air balloon rides and adventures in Cappadocia to historical ruins all around the nation. Plus, because of its rich past, there are a plethora of sights to see and universities to attend to begin your higher education!
Even better, thanks to the current currency rate, it is a relatively inexpensive location. It's a college student's dream: amazing things to do and affordable food. Are you still not convinced? Check out the top reasons why Turkey should be on your bucket list.
* There are more ancient ruins to see than in Rome or Greece
Turkey contains more ancient ruins than Rome and Greece due to its long history of Roman and Greek control. Even if you're not a history buff, the history and breathtaking ruins dotted around Turkey will leave you speechless. Don't know where to start? Ephesus is without a doubt one of Turkey's most famous sights! Despite the fact that the city was founded in the 10th century BC, it has been extremely well preserved. Allow yourself to be immersed in history by taking a walk through it.
* Unwind at world-class resorts away from the crowds!
Turkey is to the right of Greece, and the two countries share the gorgeous Aegean Sea. It's so lovely—and salty—that you can't help but float and unwind. So, if you want to see the beautiful Aegean Sea without the masses of visitors that plague Greece, head to Turkey. Bodrum, Turkey, is one of Europe's most exciting new destinations. It's a resort town that exudes natural, real, and local charm. Many of the resorts here have infinity pools, which make the water appear to flow endlessly into the sea. Prepare to utilize a plethora of heart-eye emojis!
* Indulge in delectable fare...and tea time!
Turkey's cuisine is incredibly delectable. It combines the culinary cultures of Central Asia, the Middle East, Eastern Europe, and the Balkans.
* Go to sites where different religions collide
The Hagia Sophia is a must-see attraction for anybody visiting Turkey. It's one of Turkey's most recognizable sites, displaying part of the country's religious history. It was formerly a Greek Orthodox Christian cathedral before being converted into an Ottoman Imperial mosque. All of the crosses were transformed into arrows, and the murals were covered once it was converted into a mosque. It is now a conserved museum, with the plaster stripped to reveal parts of the Christian artwork bordered by Arabic calligraphy roundels. At the Hagia Sophia, you can discover how Turkish religion history and culture collide!
* Actually, enjoy the journey
When visiting Turkey, fly with Turkish Airlines, and the Turkish experience begins the moment you board the plane. The food would be delectable, with some regional flavors that would give a sense of the region's cuisine. Another interesting feature of the flight is the presence of real plants. Even at 30,000 feet, it helps you feel more at ease. After your Turkish trip, you'll arrive at the world's largest airport, which can accommodate 90 million passengers each year.
While there is no bad time to visit Turkey, the spring and fall seasons are fantastic for nice weather and fewer crowds—which means now is the best time to start arranging your trip!
