When it’s time to seek worldly pleasures, Turkey shines as brightly as its red and white flag.

Turkey’s charms range from sun-splashed Mediterranean and Aegean beaches to Sultanahmet’s mosques.  Many of the attractions in Turkey are completely unlike anywhere else on the planet, such as Cappadocia’s fairy chimneys and Pamukkale’s white travertine (calcium carbonate) shelves and pools.
