Thread: The top destinations in Turkey

Can anyone list the top 5 most visiting destinations in Turkey?

I would say

1. Cappadocia - Because its so unique.
2. Marmaris - Because of its beautiful beaches
3. Istanbul - Because of its city attractions
4. Pamukkale - Because of its natural beauty
5. Ephesus - Because of its Roman ruins

1. Istanbul - nothing more to say than you could spend a week there and still find something new.

2. Edirne - for the mosque.

3. Ephesus - for the history

4. Canakale - for war buffs

5. Bodrum/Marmaris - for the best weather

I will be visiting Turkey soon and I'm so excited. It's a country I've yearned to see since I was a child. So exotic and so much history, I can't wait! Thanks for the feedback because there seem to be so many places to see that it's hard to make a decision. Time challenges require that the list be whittled down. Hearing from someone who's been helps immensely because all information makes every part of Turkey sound amazing and worth seeing.

I am planning on visiting Turkey next year and it's not even far away from my country, just over the Black sea I really can't wait to see this beautiful country and your suggestions are really helpful. I wanna go somewhere near the beach but I also want to visit some cultural sites. I can't wait to go, I am sure it's worth it.

1. Edirne - for the mosque
2.Istanbul-city attraction
3.Cappadocia-totally different as compare to others
4.Culture of turkey
5.Marmaris-for the beaches

Alika is absolutely right! Blue Mosque is truly a wonderful and unique attraction in the Turkey. I have personally visited this beautiful mask. The Sultan Ahmed Mosque is a historic mosque in Istanbul. The mosque is commonly known as the Blue Mosque for the blue tiles adorning the walls of its interior. It’s an amazing piece of Architecture.

Absolutely right Leif! The Sultan Ahmed Mosque is the most beautiful mosque in Istanbul. I visti in this mosque before phoenix grand canyon tours. It is the major tourist attraction for visiting. It is a historic mosque in Istanbul. The mosque is popularly known as the Blue Mosque for the blue tiles adorning the walls of its interior. It was built from 1609 to 1616, during the rule of Ahmed I. Blue Mosque was definitely worth a visit. Beautiful mosaics and a candlelight chandelier add to the atmosphere.

I have been visited turkey a year ago before my boston to Philadelphia tour. Blue Mosque is one of my favorite destinations in turkey. Blue mosque impress the visitors and draw the attention to it. It was built in 1609 to 1616. In the mosque high ceiling is lined with the 20,000 thousand blue tiles and like the other mosque it contains tomb and a founder.

Go to Belek. It's very close to Antalya. The beaches there are very gorgeous and the hotels are wonderful! They also have many water-sports along the beach such as jet skiing and dolphin boats, etc. But I also think you'd enjoy ANY city that's near the coastline.
