Turkey is the open air museum of prehistoric civilizations. So many ancient civilizations settled in Anatolia and so many are still waiting to be discovered. Nearly every year an ancient city is discovered by chance. Ancient civilizations such as Hittites, Phrygians, Lydians, Ionians, Urartians etc. founded their states in Anatolia and Persian empire, Alexander's empire, Roman empire, Byzantine empire, Seljuk empire, Ottoman empire ruled all over Anatolia / Turkey through last 5000 years, which made Anatolia / Turkey the intersection point of civilizations. That's why you may come across ancient ruins such as an ancient city, an ancient theater, an ancient statue, an ancient tomb, an ancient church etc. anywhere you go across Anatolia. Not to mention the perfect beaches, seas and resorts by the Aegean and Mediterrenean shores. We also have quite nice mountain (ski) resorts. And a perfect cuisine. There's no such land on earth like Turkey! Anyone who visits Turkey would feel like he/she is in wonderland! You may check the links below and see that all my words are true!
