| Fascinating Turkey bridges two continents, figuratively and literally, and is an exotic confluence of cultures that make it unique among countries. Because you can see legendary sites like the ancient city of Troy and the wonder of the Temple of Artemis, Turkey is an enticing destination for the adventurous traveler. When all is said and done, Istanbul is the vibrant essence of the Turkish experience and a vacation in and of itself. Explore the Great Bazaar, which attracts hundreds of thousands of visitors daily to its 4,000 shops with spices, leather goods, famous Turkish rugs and so much more. This capital city of the Eastern Orthodox faith presents a lineup of museums, religious monuments and palaces that reveal many centuries worth of history. The Blue Mosque is one of the great masterpieces of Islamic architecture, and the Topkapi Palace was the royal center of the Ottoman Empire. And while many refer to Istanbul's Hagia Sophia as the Eighth Wonder of the World, you'll see that the entire city is easily worthy of such an exalted title. |
