Turkey
COMING SOON....
Turkey's densely layered cityscapes, magnificent classical ruins, chaotic bazaars, and rich, complex cuisine testify to the country's unique position at the crossroads of Asia and Europe. Istanbul, astride the strategic Bosphorus Strait, has been the capital of three empires-Roman, Byzantine and Ottoman-and has the tile mosaics and dome-and-minaret skyline to prove it. Ruins of legendary towns dotting Turkey's long Mediterranean coast-Aphrodisias, Ephesus, Bodrum and Troy-preserve in stone the secrets of ancient civilizations. In sprawling bazaars, carpets, spices, silks and other exotic goods for sale reflect millennia-old trade routes still traversing the country.
