Let’s Plan Our Holiday

For most Europeans, Turkey is known for two things when it comes to holidays: the historical city of Istanbul and the Turkish Riviera, packed with **** and ***** hotels along the coast line. They’ve come to enjoy their mega-cheap holidays in Turkey, and I must admit, the value-for-money is great in Turkey. Together we’ll take a short look at what Turkey has to offer, limiting ourselves to the main attractions.

So, okay, most people either visit the beaches or this one great historical city called Istanbul. What’s so special about Istanbul? Well, quite a lot! First of all, this city is the only city in the world that’s actually located on two continents: Europe and Asia. The Bosphorus is the natural border. There’s also quite a lot of cultural sight-seeing to be done: if you visit this city you get to see some of the world’s most amazing mosks, and in the Grand Bazaar you can shop for great authentic carpets and jackets and less authentic branded clothing. A small hint: do not pay what they ask: it’s only worth half of what they start at!

The Turkish Riviera is famous for beaches and all-inclusive resorts, and that’s about it. Don’t go looking for something special, but it’s great fun for a week of relaxing by the sea…
