Cappadocia

This place is one of the best I've ever been in. Cappadocia is the name of a historical region in central Turkey, Central Anatolia. According to the information that I found, Cappadocia spans about 400 km east-west and 250 km north-south which makes it bigger than Croatia. The unrealistic view of this region resembles the lunar surface and is made by volcanic eruptions millions of years ago, formed by erosion and rain, and arranged as a warm home through years and years by countless nations. There simply isn’t enough time to get bored of Cappadocia, and there is no text or image, film or any other medium for you to describe this magical land.

Istanbul

The life story of this city that is historically known as Byzantium, Istanbul and Constantinople, and was the former capital of the Roman, Byzantine and Ottoman empires, gave him the title of a city made for everyone and the European Capital of Culture of year 2010. Istanbul is the largest city in Turkey, its cultural and economic center inhabited by about 10 million people which relates only to the area covered by tram, bus and subway. The city is huge, and sometimes a little dirty, but beside the history and culture there is “something” which creates a special sense of pure adventure and impression, and this makes you want to experience and soak up everything this place offers. It has rhythm.
