Beautiful places in Turkey

Beautiful places in Turkey Sights worthy of being called the most beautiful places of Turkey, popular with tourists, are not located in resort towns.

On the contrary, the most amazing sites are located away from the Mediterranean coast.

Patara
Stretching more than seven miles, Patara Beach is the longest and most wildly beautiful in Turkey – and also one of the emptiest. Breakers crash along one edge of this deep, wide stretch of pale sand; along the other are dunes and pine trees, marshes and lagoons, now a natural park rich in birdlife, so you are completely surrounded by water and wildlife – most notably, endangered loggerhead turtles. It’s thanks partly to the turtles that the beach remains unspoilt and protected, and also to the ruins of the ancient city of Patara, built – it is said, by Apollo’s son – at the back of the beach.

You access the shore via these ruins, which include an amphitheatre, parliament building (found buried in the sand in the 1990s) and the column-flanked remains of the main street. Apollo’s temple is believed to still lie somewhere beneath, as yet undiscovered.

Butterfly Valley, Fethiye
One of the greatest rewards for walkers on the Lycian Way is the spectacular view as you pass above Butterfly Valley: a jag of cove sheered out of the land, colossal cliffs rising sheer and scrubby either side of the narrow blue bay, fading to turquoise at the shore.

On the toenail of sand-and-pebble beach at the foot of it, accessible only by boat, there’s a campsite with a beach bar serving beers and grilled fish, and yoga classes are held beneath the trees. Heading inland, the valley (used for all eternity as a goods route) leads through lush greenery and waterfalls, and in springtime, is filled with 100 species of butterfly.

The most famous sights of Alanya Another Turkish city in which many interesting places have been preserved is Alanya. The Byzantine fortress wall is perhaps the most significant of the sights of this town. The Red Wall has survived, which at one time protected the inhabitants of the city from enemies attacking from the sea and from pirates.

The famous fortress in Alanya Not far from the city, there are stalactite caves that are popular with tourists. The Dalmatash Cave is considered especially mysterious. She is about fifteen thousand years old.

Cappadocia is the land of cave churches of the first Christians and bizarre rocks that resemble the Martian surface. This incredibly beautiful place is a must see for every tourist.

Cappadocia, Turkey

The best way to see them is to book a hot air balloon tour. Getting to Cappadocia is quite difficult, the road takes a lot of time and effort. Groups of tourists are most often taken by bus, while individuals prefer to use local airline flights or rent a car. Prices for a hot air balloon flight over Cappadocia in 2018 started at € 100 per person. The cost depends on the aeronautical company, the season and the route of the flight.
Each resort has its own excursions - rafting, safari, sailing or a Turkish night with belly dancing. In Antalya with children, it is worth going to the water park, aquarium and dolphinarium.

Nemrut-Dag
This mountain is the most underestimated natural site in Turkey. This is despite the fact that Nemrut-Dag is included in the list of UNESCO World Heritage Sites. It is located far in the east of the country, and no excursions from the seaside resorts get here.

The mountain is notable not only for its beautiful landscapes, but also for the huge tomb of the Ervandid dynasty, the Armenian kings. The sanctuary is decorated with huge statues of 9 meters in height, figures of the gods of the Greek pantheon, statues of eagles and lions of surprisingly fine workmanship.

Cleopatra beach
But the main thing that Turkey is famous for among overseas guests is sandy beaches and warm sea water. The most beautiful of the beaches is located in the city of Alanya. This is the legendary Cleopatra beach, according to the ancient authors, which has an artificial origin - it was created by order of Mark Antony, and the sand was imported from Africa.

Cleopatra Beach is a 2.5 km stretch of coastline lined with white sand. The beauty of the landscape is added by the rock mass in its southern part. In the same place there is the Alanian fortress and an observation deck, from which a stunning view opens up to the surroundings.
