What is the destination known for?

Turkey is known for being transcontinental, a country spanning more than one continent. Due to its huge size, Turkey has many cities and regions and most of them are famous by themselves. Istanbul, historically known as Constantinople, has been declared as a European Capital of Culture in 2010. This city is full of history and glimpses of the Byzantine and Ottoman empires are found everywhere. The region of Cappadocia is famous for its amazing geographical formations such as rock cut churches and fairy chimneys as well as its underground cities that could sustain thousands of people. Pamukkale town is known for its white travertines and the healing powers of its cascading waters. Ephesus is the best preserved classical city in the Mediterranean, even better than Rome itself and it is also where you can see the house in which Mother Mary spent the last years of her life in Nightingale Mountain.

How to get there?

There are daily direct flights from Dubai to Istanbul on Emirates and Turkish Airlines. For budget travelers, FlyDubai has very affordable fares. Travelling within Turkey is also very convenient with their efficient train system as well as comfortable buses. Since Turkey is big, approximately 1700 kilometers from East to West, the best way to travel internally is through their domestic airlines. Pegasus, Anadolu Jet, Onur Air and Sun Express are some of the few airlines travelling domestically.
