Ferries to Turkey
Destination Overview
Turkey lies in the Aegean and Black Seas, and
shares borders with Georgia, Armenia, Iran,
Iraq, the Syrian Arab Republic, Greece and
Bulgaria.
Turkey has a rich history and cultural heritage;
its position between the two continents of
Europe and Asia has given Turkey the influence
of many different cultures throughout history.
As such, Turkey is rich in sites of historical
and archaeological interest. Turkey also boasts
some splendid beaches to which tourists flock
each year.
Discover Turkey
Unique in the fact that this country is half
European, half Asian and its culture is a
fascinating mix of Eastern and Western tradition
that makes this country so popular with overseas
visitors. There is an incredible to see, do and
explore and some of the landscapes have been
completely untouched by the recent boom in
tourists to this mythical country.
Turkey, once the centre of the Ottoman and
Byzantine empires, has a rich, varied history.
The country has a very individual feel about it
combining traditional Turkish, Muslim and modern
cultures, especially around the largest city of
Istanbul.
Turkey is full of spectacular coastlines,
incredible cuisines and a stunning array of
mosques and castles that really make this
country so much more original than any other
country in the world. Remember, however, that
Turkey is a primarily Muslim country that is
practiced in varying degrees around the country
but if you are travelling to a mosque,
headscarves are compulsory. |
