Country information
Turkey

Turkey is a blend of exotic sights, sounds, pageantry and food. Almost magical in its history, folklore recounts tales of princes, riches, belly dancers and kingdoms. The majestic buildings scattered across the countryside suggest these tales may be true. As the gate between Europe and Asia, Istanbul was long known as the capital of the civilized world, and still remains the heart and soul of Turkey.

The Turkish people welcome foreign visitors to their country, and greet them with open arms and delightful demeanors. The cuisine here is an exotic mix of spices, flatbreads and shish-kebab. Activities in Turkey vary from water sports to mountain trekking, archaeology and river rafting. Also world-renowned for its carpets, be they magical or not, visitors don't usually leave the country without one.
