Turkey is huge and diverse, you can travel endlessly in Turkey, but it is this route runs in the warmest regions of this country, as for winter, in the beauty and grandeur of which I want to immerse you for 6 days.
6 days / 6 provinces / 5 ancient cities / 2 seas and 2 macro-regions / 3 unique caves / 3 medieval castles and 2 waterfalls / 1 UNESCO heritage site
Weather in Turkey in winter on the coast of southern seas, unlike the central regions of the country, is very comfortable as for winter months. During the day, the average air temperature reaches +12 +17 ° C, and at night it rarely drops to zero.
The route consists of 2 parts: the Mediterranean region and the Aegean Sea region and will pass through such ancient regions as Cilicia, Pamphylia, Lycia, Karia and Ionia.
