One of Turkey's popular holiday vacation spots, Antalya is an engaging city. The region is immersed in sunshine for 300 days of the year, making it a hot spot for sunbathing, swimming and activities like wind-surfing, water-skiing, sailing, mountain climbing and caving. The Toros (Taurus) Mountains meander down to the sea forming a rocky coastline with
many secluded coves. Because of the immense differences in terrain, during the spring months, one can ski in the mornings and swim in the warm Mediterranean waters in the afternoon. It is no wonder that many vacationers find refuge in this Mediterranean paradise.

Along with the sunbathing and activities, Antalya has a rich, historical background. One particular area of interest is the charming old quarter, Kaleic, with it's narrow, winding streets and old wooden houses adjoining the ancient city walls. Explore the rich olive and citrus groves and palm, avocado and banana plantations. Have fun discovering the many wonders that are Antalya!

Istanbul

Istanbul is a city built on layers of empire. Spanning two continents, it was once the capital of three major empires: Roman, Byzantine, and Ottoman. Visitors walking through the Sultanahmet district can witness this timeline firsthand, from the Roman-era Hippodrome to the Byzantine mosaics of Hagia Sophia, and the towering minarets of the Blue Mosque. At nearby Topkapi Palace, rooms still display the jeweled swords, ceremonial robes, and handwritten Qurans once used by Ottoman sultans.
