We travelled up from Antalya (no one going there these days!) to Cappadocia and then on to Anakara for the train to Istanbul. As Aussies do, we hired a car and continued on to Gellibolu then down to Cannakale, the Pergamon Altar, Pamukkale, Ephesus and then a loop back to Istanbul. Of course,we didn't visit Izmir... I loved Turkey and intend to return in 2018 when we take 6 months off to travel. Thanks for adding this as inspiration to my list.

We've been twice now and plan to go back again this year at some point. Love the bars, there, and the summer atmosphere when everyone sits out on the grass along the seafront at nights. :) Mmmm, dreaming now. ;)Juliahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17259736008093281882noreply@blogger.com
