Σχετικά με τον προορισμό: Η Καππαδοκία είναι μια ιστορική περιοχή στην Κεντρική Ανατολία, σε μεγάλο βαθμό στις επαρχίες Nevşehir, Kayseri, Kırşehir, Aksaray και Niğde στην Τουρκία. Σύμφωνα με τον Ηρόδοτο,[1] την εποχή της Ιωνικής Επανάστασης (499 π.Χ.) οι Καππαδόκες αναφέρθηκαν ότι κατείχαν μια περιοχή από το όρος Ταύρος μέχρι την περιοχή του Ευξίνου (Εύξεινος Πόντος). Η Καππαδοκία, υπό αυτή την έννοια, οριοθετήθηκε νότια από την αλυσίδα των βουνών του Ταύρου που τη χωρίζουν από την Κιλικία, ανατολικά από τον άνω Ευφράτη, βόρεια από τον Πόντο και δυτικά από τη Λυκαονία και την ανατολική Γαλατία.[2] ] Το όνομα, που χρησιμοποιείται παραδοσιακά σε χριστιανικές πηγές σε όλη την ιστορία, [απαιτείται παραπομπή] συνεχίζει να χρησιμοποιείται ως διεθνής τουριστική έννοια για να ορίσει μια περιοχή εξαιρετικών φυσικών θαυμάτων, που χαρακτηρίζεται ιδιαίτερα από καμινάδες νεραϊδών και μια μοναδική ιστορική και πολιτιστική κληρονομιά.

About the destination: Antalya is the largest city on the Turkish Mediterranean coast and is one of the hubs of the so-called Turkish Riviera. With the most beautiful and cleanest shores of the Mediterranean, along with Antalya's long coastline, one encounters ancient sites, old ports, monumental graves, dramatic shores, endless beaches, green forests, rivers, and waterfalls. Kaleici, enclosed within ancient city walls, is Antalya’s Old Quarter. It is one of the liveliest parts of the city, with shops, bars, restaurants, and entertainment facilities. The streets of Kaleici extend to the old harbor, which is used as an international yacht marina today. In the picturesque Old Quarter, you’ll find examples from the Hellenistic, Roman, Byzantine, Seljuk, and Ottoman eras, along with numerous archaeological sites and historic buildings to explore. Antalya is an attractive city with shady, palm-lined boulevards, considered by many as a paradise on earth and the pearl of the Mediterranean. Not bad, huh?

About the destination: Istanbul's historical significance and its incredible cultural and architectural legacy can be attributed to its ideal strategic location, spanning the Bosphorus straits that divide Europe and Asia Minor. Throughout most of its 2,500-year history, the city (initially known as Byzantium, then Constantinople, and since 1930, Istanbul) has been a cultural melting pot. Today, its population of over 13 million is predominantly Turkish, with many of its residents being recent migrants from rural Turkey, drawn by the prospect of employment and career opportunities in this dynamic, rapidly expanding city. Although Istanbul is no longer the capital of the country, it remains Turkey's economic and cultural hub - a status emphasized by its designation as a European City of Culture in 2010 and the UNESCO World Heritage recognition of many of its key landmarks. These range from breathtaking Ottoman mosques and Byzantine churches and catacombs, to the pillars of Hellenistic temples and the remnants of enormous medieval city walls. However, Istanbul offers more than just Byzantine and Ottoman heritage. A rapidly growing economy has led to a thriving arts and music scene, with an abundance of new bars, clubs, private art galleries, restaurants, and designer fashion stores.
