The visit to Turkey is often pinned on a route around the Mediterranean. There are many things Turkey has to offer. Starting from the foods, cultures, and one that should never be missed is the high value historical objects.
Istanbul could be the first place to be visited. This largest city in Turkey has Hagia Sophia, which has been stood since the 4th century.
This building also has a long history through the upheaval until finally became a museum by Mustafa KemaI Ataturk in 1937. Inside we can find the symbol of Christian or Muslim people. This is because the building once was used as a church and a mosque. Today, the Hagia Sophia museum exhibit more than 100 letters addressed to the clan of the caliph.
Pamukkale, a hot water bath with high mineral content, also become a must visit. On the top of Pamukkale is Hierapolies located, which is found in the 2nd century BC.
