Turkey has a great diversity of climates:
Turkish cuisine is one of the richest and most varied in the world, a heritage from the Ottoman Empire. The kebabs (grilled meat, notably döner kebab) are iconic. The mezze (an assortment of hot and cold appetizers) are perfect to start the meal. Taste the pide (Turkish pizza), the lahmacun (thin flatbread topped with minced meat), the mantı (small dumplings), and the dolma (stuffed vegetables). Vegetables cooked in olive oil (zeytinyağlılar) are delicious. For desserts, the baklavas, the Turkish delights (loukoums) and the künefe are essentials. Turkish tea (çay) and Turkish coffee (kahve) are ubiquitous drinks and an integral part of the culture. Don’t miss tasting local specialties wherever you go.
