Turkish food

Turkish food is probably the most delicious food you’ll ever have in your life, especially if you are a meat lover. Turkish cuisine is not only about fantastic Kebabs, Turkish donair, and baklava. There are terrific seafood dishes, breakfast spreads, deserts, and even Turkish vegetable foods that might blow your mind!
Turkish beaches

Turkey has a lot of world-class beach cities like Antalya, Bodrum, and Kusadasi. You’ll find crystal water, perfect blue sky, and white sand all in one place. Turkey has a lot of resorts and hotels to stay in. If you are looking for western-style resorts, you can book all-inclusive resorts in Antalya where a lot of Europeans and Asians head to as winter sun destination, or book an all-inclusive resort in Bodrum during summer when the weather is just perfectly warm and great for swimming in Aegean sea.
Turkish Hamam

These traditional eastern bathes come from Turkey where you get a great massage while your body’s covered in a cloud of soap and then get washed! The best Turkish Hamam would be found in Turkey itself!
Turkey’s Archaeological sites

Since Turkey has always played a huge rule throughout mankind’s history, there are countless Archaeological sites everywhere in the country, from palaces and mosques in Istanbul to the ruins of Ephesus which is mentioned in the Bible, to the underground cities of Cappadocia.
Turkish Bazaars

Such amazing food could only come from an even better food shopping market! You can spend hours in Turkish bazaars and still feel like you need more time to discover incredible ingredients and tools you always needed in your kitchen.
Natural wonders

Turkey’s beautiful nature is always ready to surprise you with its breathtaking views and natural wonders such as white travertine terraces of Pamukkale, or the ski resorts in UludaΔ Mountains, and hiking in the amazing Rize Province.
Turkish people

People in Turkey are the most valuable thing this country has to offer! Turks are kind, friendly, and always down for a great conversation. Don’t get surprised if they invite you to a great meal at their home! It’s considered normal over there, especially if you are a tourist!
Please, add Fethiye.
Sure thing.
I’ll add it to the next posts about Turkey! π
I haven’t been to Turkey, but I have had Turkish food. It’s delicious. I want to visit Turkey someday?
Well, the Turkish food outside turkey isn’t comparable with the one inside there. It just blows your mind away! π

Youβre so welcome!
You had me at food! But all the other stuff sounds awesome too!
Turkish food is what I miss the most! Lol! Have you been there? Every single dish tastes like heavens!
I went when I was too young to remember it. I definitely want to go now that I can remember it! I have had Turkish food, but not the real deal!
So right ! It’s a wonderful country – and there is a terrible lack of tourism these last years.
