Popular Destinations in Turkey
Istanbul
A city rich with historical importance, Istanbul has been ruled and conquered by many. The city straddles two continents and is filled with Byzantine architecture in the form of gorgeous towering churches and imposing Mosques.
The city's cuisine is as diverse as its history, taking notes from Greek and European food and Asian dishes. You are bound to find something you like to eat in Turkey, especially the local cuisine of kebabs and mezes, which is much different from your local Turkish takeaway.
Istanbul harbours a nation of hard workers and even harder partiers, so sample a few local wines and spirits.
Antalya
Located on the Gulf of Antalya, this is the largest city on the Turkish Mediterranean coastline and offers incredible sea views and a beautiful beachfront.
Often seen as the Gateway to the Turkish Riviera, Antalya boasts a unique Old Town that is wonderfully preserved, full of restored buildings and crumbling walls, basked in a golden hue. Antalya also has some great museums to spend your days in.
Make sure to visit Hadrian's Gate, a breathtaking piece of architecture in Antalya.
Ankara
Visit the dynamic city of Ankara. It has a youthful hubris and retains its ancient feel, and its modest surroundings make it the perfect place to escape the tourist crowds of Istanbul.
Although still busy, you'll be able to find a spot in Ankara to enjoy a picnic in the sun with the family. Visit the Citadel and the Anıt Kabir, a tribute to Atatürk, modern Turkey's founder.
Fethiye
Known for its natural harbour and azure waters, Fethiye is a port city and district on Turkey's southwestern Turquoise Coast.
Filled with white sand beaches, carve out for a paddle and a snorkel and explore Turkey's unique marine life.
Fethiye has almost an 'island' feel, surrounded by blue seas as far as you can fathom and the Mediterranean sun beating down on your back, on the perfect Turkish escape.

Travel Risks in Turkey
Do not travel within 10 kilometres of the border with Syria due to the threat of terrorism, kidnapping and the potential for violence associated with the ongoing conflict in Syria, and do not travel to the city of Diyarbakir in southeast Turkey due to the risk of terrorism, civil unrest and the unpredictable security situation.
Pickpocketing and petty crime are common in Turkey, so keep an eye on your belongings and ensure your valuables are always safe.
Some Turkish men have been known to be disrespectful towards women, so if you are a female traveller, please be aware of this and travel with groups, and don't go anywhere alone late at night.
If you are drinking, ensure you can see the bartender make your drink and never leave it unattended. It is advised you do not let anyone buy you a drink if you can't see it being made in the event of the drink spiking.
