Turkey has so much to offer her visitors: breathtaking natural beauties, unique historical and archeological sites... It is not surprising therefore that this country has recently become one of the world's most popular tourism destinations.
Due to Turkey's diverse geography, one can experience four different climates in any one day. The rectangular shaped country is washed on three sides by three different seas. Its shores are laced with beaches, bays, coves, ports, islands and peninsulas. Turkey is also blessed with majestic mountains and valleys, lakes, rivers, waterfalls and grottoes perfect for winter and summer tourism and sports of all kinds.
Turkey is, above anything else, a huge open-air museum, a repository of all the civilizations nurtured by the soils of Anatolia. The huge amount of historical and archaeological wealth in Turkey seems more appropriate for an entire continent than a single country.
For centuries, Turkey has also been a crossroads of religions, not only of Islam and Christianity, but of many others now forgotten by history. Many religious devotees can find a site, a shrine, a monument, a tomb or a ruin connected with their faith or belief.
The Whirling Dervishes
The Whirling
Dervishes of Turkey are a spectacular sight to behold. The whirling induces a trance-like state that allows
them to forget about their earthly lives and join in mystical union
with God.
