Turkey, another aged country located in the Mediterranean. Turkey is bordered by Bulgaria, Greece, Armenia, Azerbaijan, Georgia, Syria, Iraq, and Iran. Turkey has about seven regions which are Aegean Turkey, Black Sea Turkey, Central Anatolia, Marmara, Mediterranean, and South Eastern Anatolia. Ankara is the capital city, and also the second largest city of the country. The largest city is Istanbul which is familiar as its most famous, and one greatest destination, and it is the one city straddling with two continents; Europe and Asia! Other than that, there are worth for the trip to look at other famous cities such as Antalya, Bursa, Edirne, Izmir, Konya, Samsun, Sinop, and Trabzon. Olympos is a tourist attraction of teenagers as filled of life!

Transportations are available as overseas with several of airlines both direct, and indirection ones. There are two airports in Istanbul; one is Istanbul’s Ataturk International Airport, and one is budget airport situated about 50 km from Taksim Square. Train is as well available to head to Turkey from neighbor countries. People can even drive, but the country requires International Insurance Card. Bodrum is where can be reached mostly by boat. There is linked to main cities of Europe by bus companies as well. All of these modes of transportation are used to get around the country too. Plane is great price. Bus is great for sightseeing. Train is cheaper, but slower. Boat has several companies offering, as well you there are rental offering. Bus runs around, and nice mode to take. There are car rental agencies for people who are willing to use this mode for the trip. To use mobile phone while driving is an illegal. . As same as in other European Countries thump is another mode fun. Even more, bicycle, and feet are romantic mode to try though. All in all, every mode of transportation has its own rule which is should be learnt before it would be in trouble later…

Turkey has its own language; Turkish. There are group of people who are involved by France, and German generations, so it wouldn’t be a wonder if there is people who can communicate so. English is popular more for new generations than old generations just same as in other parts in the world.
