WE travel to TURQUIA

2018

Our journey to discover your next dream destination, takes us this time to the magnificent Turkey.

Istanbul is the only city in the world to be found on two continents. When crossing the bridge that reunites the European continent with the Asian one manages to have a foot in each of the sides. It is without a doubt an excellent country to know different cultural riches.

Turkey is a rich country in cultural vestiges of different times, from Hellenistic times (with the temples of Artemisia, Dídimo, Hierápolis or Antalya and cities as important as Pérgamo (which had a library with more than two hundred thousand scrolls), passing through the Roman (with the city of Ephesus, Miletus or Tarsus) or where many of the events of the Old Testament unfolded and where St. John wrote the Gospel in Ephesus and where the Virgin Mary spent her last years of life, the Byzantine Empire and her capital Constantinople (now Istanbul), of the huge Ottoman Empire that resisted for six centuries and from where comes the tradition of the "Turkish Baths or Hamam" until the founder of the new Atatürk Republic in 1923.

Cappadocia is one of the regions in the world that best meets to practice ballooning. The flight made at sunrise brings us immemorial memories of that "lunar" landscape with volcanic chimneys, cave caves and eroded valleys.

With the trade tradition gained in all these centuries (silk, spice and Marco Polo route) due to the exchanges between the European and Asian peoples, Turkey is an excellent destination for shopping. Handicrafts, tapestry, jewelery (Turkey is the 3rd largest producer of precious stones), fur, spices, teas, coffee, etc., will not have any difficulty in bringing excellent memories of this magnificent country.
