Istanbul - Turkey


Turkey



Discover Turkey, one foot in Europe and one foot in Asia, it is a colorful culture!
You can enjoy the beaches of the Mediterranean and the shores of the Black Sea, and discover the beautiful landscapes of the interior including Cappadocia. You will find many trips organized in Turkey with a great diversity in the types of stays: spa stays, weekends, discovery tours, treks, cruises ....
For a weekend or a short stay in Turkey, treat yourself to Istanbul and its architectural wonders: Hagia Sophia, Blue Mosque, Topkapi Palace .... Go on a boat trip on the Bosphorus to the Black Sea. Cappadocia and its lunar landscapes are inevitable in Turkey.
From Ankara, join Göreme, Uçhisar, Avanos, Zelve ... to explore the underground cities and fairy chimney valleys. Going down to Antalya not miss by Egirdir and turquoise lake, you can go trekking in the area.
On the Mediterranean coast, particularly around Izmir, you will find resorts. Enjoy the ancient sites in the southwest of Turkey in Antalya, Kas, Patara, Bodrum, Güzelçamli, Selçuk .... In eastern Turkey, wander the ancient sites of Mount Nemrut, Sanli Urfa, Erzurum .... Then go on trek or enjoy nature at Yusufeli, Artvin 



The modern Istanbul is a vibrant cosmopolitan city, where festivals and biennials drain an international audience and where modern art museums attest to the vitality of contemporary Turkish culture. Shops connected to İstiklâl Caddesi to the burning nights of the Bosphorus, the former Constantinople, booming, once again proves its modernity adaptability. Knowing remain itself ... Welcome to the city of paradoxes!
Still as bohemian, Pera, the old European district that borders İstiklâl Caddesi, looks like a Turkish Soho with its galleries and arty restaurants, while along the Bosphorus, bars and clubs ultradesign attract a chic and trendy wildlife. If the rich history of Istanbul is an influx of visitors since ancient times, the city has to take this cultural showcase to assert itself as the capital of modern Turkey.
Far from turning its back on its history, ancient Constantinople continually reinvents itself. The diversity is its strength. This broth benefits the new generation of stylists, designers and artists of all kinds who built his reputation on this mix.
Istanbul is one of the few cities in the world able to boast of having two modern art museums. Opened in late 2004, Istanbul Modern is placed in a former customs warehouse in the shadow of the mosque of Tophane. This private area is a nice approach to creativity of the Turkish art scene. Housed in a former power station on the hill Eyüp, the Santral wants more forward thinking. The building is huge!
Bigli University has initiated this multidisciplinary place that welcomes, besides exhibitions, several cinemas, a dance hall, a park and a library. Nearly a thousand student researchers - architects, designers and thinkers - also found refuge there each year. The Santral should reinvigorate the neighborhood where it is located.
