At the top of the list is the Sultan Ahmed Mosque. Rather obviously Turkey is a Muslim state and mosques are to be had every which way one turns. However, this is a special mosque from the outside in. From the exterior the one thing that will stand out is the gorgeous domes and minarets that are common place on mosques, but it is the mosaics on the inside that will have you staring upwards for the duration of the tour. These intricate designs are a story unto themselves, and when combined with wonderful light installations the guest is sure to be spell bound by the majesty of the entire location. From here the Turkish tour should move on to the streets of Istanbul where there is always something to be hold. However, as opposed to moving around aimlessly looking for the next best tourist spot; why not just take a seat at one of the numerous cafes and take in the Turkish people as they go about their business? This is an excellent opportunity to mingle with the locals and have a taste or three of their local delicacies. This is an achievable feat whether one is within Soloi, Ankara or even the ever breath taking Eastern Black sea coast. When all is said and done there are numerous things that one can do while in Turkey vacation, but in order to crown the entire experience a visit to one of the numerous Turkish baths to be found all over the place is a must. For the ultimate in Turkish massage and bath experience there is no place better than the Cemberlitas Hamami a must have for the duration of the holidays Turkey adventure.
