Turkey, a nation that spans two continents, is a place where the East and the West collide, the ancient and the modern converge, and man-made and natural wonders compete for the viewer's attention. Istanbul, Ephesus, and Cappadocia are three of this landscape's most fascinating locations. Each provides a different perspective on the rich history, culture, and scenic beauty of the nation. Turkey's charm is found in its ability to eloquently combine the old and the new, the East and the West, and the natural and the artificial. Three distinct facets of this intricate web are embodied by Istanbul, Ephesus, and Cappadocia, which provide visitors with an incredible trip through history, culture, and breathtaking scenery. Turkey never fails to enthral travellers, whether they want to explore its bustling streets, meander through the ancient remains of Ephesus, or glide above the bizarre landscapes of Cappadocia.
