Turkey Guide

Turkey is officially known as the Republic of Turkey which is a nation in the west of Asia and south east of Europe. If we talk about geography, we must say that the vast majority of the country is composed of the Asian territory of Anatolia, or Asia Minor, a large mountainous peninsula. Ankara is the capital city of the country and it is located there. The rest of Turkey, called Eastern (or Turkish) Thrace, occupies the far south-eastern part of Europe. This region of rolling fertile hills is home to Istanbul, Turkey’s largest city. Asian Turkey and European Turkey are separated by three connected waterways of great strategic importance: the Sea of Marmara and the straits of the Bosporus and the Dardanelles (also called the Turkish Straits). Together, they form the only water route between the Black Sea and the Aegean Sea, an arm of the Mediterranean Sea.

IPW Guide to Turkey

Turkey is a country of rectangular shape, and it occupies an area which is a little bit bigger than the state of Texas for example. The borders of Turkey are Bulgaria on the northwest; the Aegean Sea and Greece on the west; the Black Sea on the north; Georgia, Armenia, and the autonomous Azerbaijani republic of Naxçivan on the northeast; Iran on the east; and Iraq, Syria, and the Mediterranean Sea on the south. Turkey’s coastline is extensive and makes up about three-fourths of the country’s total boundary.

We will be able to find very different landscapes in Turkey, fertile plains in the northwest and southeast for instance or broad river valleys in the west to high barren plateaus and towering mountains in the east. In the rugged Asian interior, the climate fluctuates dramatically, with cold, snowy winters and hot, dry summers. Along the Mediterranean coastline the climate is less extreme, with warm summers and mild, moist winters.
