Lying between West Asia and South-eastern Europe, Turkey is literally where the East meets the West. This is where you will find a unique blend of cultures and people fiercely proud of their heritage. Be immersed in the lively local culture of traditional dances, music and art in addition to their famed cuisine. The sheer variety of flavours ranging from savoury to spicy and sweet is sure to overwhelm and satisfy even the pickiest foodies. Turkey also possesses a long and complex history, as you would expect from a country that rose from part of the Ottoman Empire. Remnants of her histories can be plainly seen from the ruins scattered across the country. In fact, the abundance of monuments, particularly in Anatolia, has earned Turkey a reputation as being an “open air museum”.
