Knocking at Europes door yet on the threshold of Asia, Turkey is truly a land of contrasts. Here you can scale the icy heights of remote Mount Ararat in search of Noahs Ark, cross the historic Euphrates and Tigris rivers, follow in the footsteps of St Paul or simply relax on the golden Mediterranean sands of Patara beach. Vibrant Istanbul, straddling the blue waters of the Bosphorus separating Europe from Asia, beckons with its skyline pierced by countless minarets, chaotic bazaars and a history redolent with harem intrigue and despotic Sultans.
In Turkey, you can also cruise along more than 1000km (620 miles) of Mediterranean coastline, past secluded coves, rocky headlands and pretty fishing villages, or explore a hinterland rich in the wonderfully preserved remains of Graeco-Roman cities such as Ephesus. For the adventurous, the austere beauty of the Anatolian plateau, the surreal rock-chimney landscape of Cappadocia and the atmospheric ruins of the enigmatic Hittites await discovery. Here, too, is the unique experience of watching the dervishes whirl in pious Konya.
With a code of hospitality nurtured by their Islamic beliefs yet with a remarkable tolerance of other customs, the Turks offer a warm welcome wherever you travel be it sipping sweet black tea or thick coffee with friendly villagers or sharing a bottle of raki over mezes (hors doeuvres) with cosmopolitan Istanbul city slickers.

- Roxy Bar
The Roxy Bar on Taksim Meydani (Taksim Square) has live bands and a raw, lively atmosphere. The bar is situated in the heart of the Taksim area, where there are a number of other bars and good kebab joints. - Haghia Sophia
The Haghia Sophia is Istanbul's most remarkable building, which is saying something in a city with such extraordinarily fine architecture. Built in 535 AD by the Byzantine Emperor Justinian, this religious site has not only withstood several natural disasters but has also changed faith twice. - Blue Mosque
The Blue Mosque in Istanbul was built by Sultan Ahmet I to eclipse the grandeur of the Christian church of Haghia Sophia across the way, and grand it most certainly is. During the years of its construction from 1606-1613, the Iznik tile producers were kept extremely busy creating 999 shades for 20,000 blue tiles with which to decorate its interior and nearly 300 stained glass windows were made to allow natural light to percolate through to the rug-filled floor below. - Kekova - the Sunken City
The island of Kekova is accessible by boat from Kalkan or Kas and offers a fun way to combine an exploration of ancient Lycian ruins with swimming in turquoise waters and a barbecue on the beach. - Cappadocia
Taking the concept of "underground culture" to new levels, the entire population of the region of Cappadocia in Turkey moved into gigantic underground warren-cities long before the birth of Christ. Each housed up to 20,000 people and was excavated to a depth of up to 50 metres.
