History
The gateway between Europe and Asia, a fascinating country and a seat of power for numerous empires over the past 3,000 years, from the ancient Hittites, Persians, Macedonians, Romans, Byzantines to the Ottomans, all have left behind superb architectural and archaeological reminders. Modern Turkey is a secular and democratic Muslim country, founded in 1920 by Mustafa Kemal Ataturk. Despite its traditional and Islamic roots, Turkey is a decidedly western oriented country, its people friendly, hospitable, welcoming of many races and religions.
Turkey is also a country blessed with stunning natural wonders - rolling plains, broad rivers, snow-capped mountains, fantastic scenery and superb beaches. Colour, excitement, history, splendour and mystery - this is Turkey, come and see!
