Turkey (Turkish: Türkiye [ˈtyɾcije]), officially the Republic of Turkey (Turkish: Türkiye Cumhuriyeti [ˈtyɾcije d͡ʒumˈhuɾijeti] ( listen)), is a transcontinental country in Eurasia, mainly in Anatolia in Western Asia, with a smaller portion on the Balkan peninsula in Southeast Europe. Turkey is bordered by eight countries with Greece and Bulgaria to the northwest; Georgia to the northeast; Armenia, the Azerbaijan and Iran to the east; and Iraq and Syria to the south. The country is encircled by seas on three sides with the Aegean Sea to the west, the Black Sea to the north, and the Mediterranean Sea to the south.

The cave is located in a beautiful environment, on a far-stretching mountainous shore. The entrance is actually in the side of the cliffs, with a staircase leading way down to the mouth of the cave. Inside, a deep and breathtaking scenery awaits, with an untouched and majestic lake at the bottom. All in all, more than worth the two-hour return trip from Alanya through winding roads because it is much more beautiful than either, more touristic and well-known caves in and around that city.

One of the top attractions in the region, this outdoor museum contains the remains of many churches carved into the famous Cappadocia stone. Of note are the many excellent frescoes that can be seen when exploring the various structures.

Cappadocia-- Located in central Turkey is known for its distinctive " fairy chimneys," tall, cone-shaped rock formations clustered in Göreme and near by valleys. This by far has been one of my favorite places to visit, with a moon like landscape, underground cities, cave churches daiting back to the Byzantine era and houses carved in the rocks! This region took my breath away...
5. Mount Erciyes

This imposing mountain and former volcano is now a resort area used for skiing and other winter sports. In summer, mountaineers generally attempt climbs from June through September, before the snows arrive at the higher elevations.

Equipment like in Alps, nice personnel, well prepared slops and fantastic view. Besides, great food on hut. And compared to Europe: very cheap, ca 1 Euro per ride. Equipment rental with skis, stick and shoes ca 8 Euro

Turkey is the most beautiful country naturally in the world. You can argue for New Zealand but no way. No other country has more natural beauty packed into one space. Surrounded by five seas:Black, Bosporus, Marmara Aegean and the Mediterranean, Turkey is also blessed with mountains with spice-like striations, tons of glacial lakes like Uzungol, snow capped mountains tumbling into the sea on the exquisite unparalleled Black Sea coast, waterfalls everywhere in Anatolia, and travertines such as this one in Pammukkale. This place with natural turquoise pools and white stone looks like a more beautiful version of the moon. There is also an impeccable island with swans in a lake adjoining. Pammukkale is not to be missed if your desire is to see THE MOST BEAUTIFUL PLACES in the world.

East of Anatlaya you'll find the clear and beautiful river Köprü. Shortly after Beskonak is the starting point of the canyon and a white water rafting tour. Two Roman bridges mark the beginning. The canyon is 14k meters long.
Reviewed By AnnBlacksea - Samsun, Turkey
This national park can be visited at any time of year. In the summer or Spring you can go canoeing and whitewater rafting. If you do not want to go on a tour then just drive to the park and you can easily find other independent people looking to split the cost and go rafting. The price will include all the equipment,bringing you back to the start and lunch. I can highly recommend doing this! If you are not so active there are amazing views, picnic spots and lovely walks a long the river. There are two Roman bridges which should not be missed. The scenery is particularly spectacular in autumn with all the different colors of the leaves.

Those two sites that are next to each other, will brings u in another dimension . The Natural pools , as known also as the cotton Castle, are simply amazing to watch and u can take a bath if u want in the numerous pool builds for the tourists and overlooking the splendid panorama. The white and light blue will catch u eyes . Then on the way to visit Hierapolis u can stop at the cleopatra bath/pool and site on antic Greek columns drawn on the bottom of the pools . And then comes the ancient ruins of Hierapolis where u will see remains of a thermal city destroyed on 60 by an earthquake :( We took a flight from Istambul to Denizli then found a “ private “ shuttle to the site . Flight was about 60$ and shuttle 70Tl. The entrance fee is for both sites and really affordable
