Of course, with a capital city as renowned as Istanbul, many people think of Turkey as a metropolis of history, founded in the eras of the Byzantine and Ottoman Empires. And although this understanding is correct, the extent of the country’s historic influence, and modern offering, is largely understated. The city is doused in relics of times gone by, yet beyond is equally as enchanting.
On the shores of the Mediterranean, the Turquoise Coast rings true to its name. Azure waters roll onto golden sand beaches, and Turkish gulet boats line the horizon. Relaxation comes in abundance here, as crowds flock to the isles of Greece, Turkey has preserved the art of seclusion.
In-land, ‘fairy towers’ rise from the hills of Cappadocia. A place where your feet may not touch the ground, both metaphorically and literally, as the heavens are met by the slow sailing of hot air balloons among clouds.
