To visit, you have to visit the ancient city of Hierapolis, which is another lovely travel destination here in this part of Turkey. This is where most tourists head these days, and it is around a four-hour drive from the north of Antalya.

This ancient city, founded in the second century, is a lovely land of adventure and ancient pleasures. A UNESCO World Heritage Site, this is a place that translates as “Sacred City.”. This is an unbelievable region with fascinating landscapes. Tourists are rewarded with a great amphitheatre here and also the sights of the Necropolis tombs and the Temple of Apollo or the Greek God of the Sun.

Pamukke Hot springs

The Pamukke Hot Springs are another attraction here, and these major tourist delights give the best experiences to all tourists coming to this part of the world. They appear white due to the deposit of calcium, and the visitors take a bath in these waters, which are supposed to have healing properties. The entrance to these springs is charged nominally.

Then you have the city of Istanbul to visit in Turkey, and this city is a lovely region of great pleasure. This is the only city in the entire world that has two continents in its area: Europe and Asia. With a rich history, this is seen all over the city.

The Blue Mosque, the Topkapi Palace, which lies at the centre of the Ottoman Empire in old Istanbul city, and the innumerable stalls in the Grand Bazaar are major attractions here. The Grand Bazaar is the world’s largest market.

Ephesus is another place that is around 25 minutes from the city of Kusadasi and is a very ancient city. This has the largest variety of ruins from the Roman era and is a great travel destination in this part of the country. This is where the Temple of Artemis once existed and is one of the Seven Wonders of the World.

Ephesus dates back to the 13th century B.C. and was a great port city with a huge population. The port got silted up, and most of the people living here left. The city was thus abandoned in a short time. Today, what we see are only the ruins.

Sumela Monastery

Also, you have the Sumela Monastery, which is another lovely travel delight in this part of the world. Lying in the Trabzon province in the northeastern part of Turkey, this monastery has the best sights of the most impressive and inaccessible regions in this part of the world.

This is located in the hollow of a cliff and is around 1000 feet above the base of the valley. Dating back to the fourth century, this is a monastery that was founded by Barnabas, a Greek monk. You can see the monks living here and have great sights of the relics and frescoes here.

With all such fascinating attractions, Turkey is surely an interesting place to visit.
