visited a few places in Turkey
Brief overview of some places I have visited in Turkey. Following Bickerns lead.
Olu Deniz, Fethiye and surrounding areas all very nice and worth visiting.
Izmir lovely really liked it, I will visit again. I have family in Izmir.
Ankara I will visit again, I was impressed. If Ankara & Izmir had better weather in the winter I would probably buy a property in one of them.
Istanbul nice to say I have seen it and we did visit several areas: Fatih/Sultanamet, Taksim/Beyoglu/Gezi Park, Levent, Kadikoy, Eminono, Eskudar, Bagciler, Atakoy, Sirinevler, Bakirkoy and 4 islands: Kinaliada, Burgazada, heybeliada & Buyukada - nice to have seen it but none that I would want to visit again - not my cup of tea. I have family in a couple of areas in Istanbul some family live in Levent.
Also visited Bursa again nice to have seen it but not somewhere I would want to see again.
Pamukkale worth a visit.
Kusadasi nice place couple of nice beaches I remember Long Beach and Ladies Beach.
Antalya l will visit again really like it. Alanya is lovely as well visited several places in the area including Gazipasa. We have a place in Tosmur, we have family living in Alanya.
Places I want to visit: Van, Diyarbakir, Mardin & Dersim Eastern Turkey, read some experiences and would like to hear more about these places. We have family in parts of Eastern Turkey as well.
I would also like to visit Cappadocia.
I will visit Marmaris & Bodrum at some point in the future.
