🌄 Travel to Hierapolis, Pamukkale, Denizli, Turkey
Turkey (Turkish: Türkiye) is a bi-continental country: while geographically most of the country is located in Europe, most of its population and land area is established in Asia.
The Ottoman Empire was the final great Islamic empire, lasting from 1299 to 1922, and it was that empire which finally wrested control of Constantinople from Christendom.
Turkey gives a wealth of destination varieties to travelers: from dome-and-minaret filled horizon of Istanbul to Roman ruins along the western and southern beaches, from heavily indented coastline against a mountainous backdrop of Lycia and wide and sunny beaches of Pamphylia to cold and snowy mountains of the East, from crazy “foam parties” of Bodrum to Middle Eastern-flavored cities of Southeastern Anatolia, from verdant misty hills of Eastern Black Sea to wide steppe landscapes of Central Anatolia, there is something for everyone’s feeling—whether they be travelling on an extravagant budget by riding or by a multi-million boat.
