Turkey Travel Guide - Travel to Turkey
Travel to Turkey - Why visit Turkey? Turkey, officially the Republic of Turkey, has exoticism to spare, with its whirling dervishes, covered bazaars, sultans’ treasures and Byzantine mosaics. And Turkey’s natural beauty is abundant, with romantic rocky coves and great stretches of sandy beaches. For travelers, it’s best experienced in leisurely excursions to places of remarkable history and beauty (such as Cappadocia and Ephesus) and in extended visits to fascinating and energetic cities (such as Istanbul).
When to visit Turkey? The best time for touring is Spring (April to June) and autumn (September to November), when the day temperatures are most comfortable and the least amount of rain falls. For the beach worshipper, June-September is best.
