The illustrations are beautiful, but when it came to planning an itinerary and researching attractions, this book proved least useful.

Turkey is a land of rich history, breathtaking landscapes, and vibrant culture! From the grandeur of Hagia Sophia to the magical hot air balloons of Cappadocia, this book beautifully captures the essence of Turkey's charm.
