Hagia Sophia is probably one of the most popular attractions in Turkey, due to its fine architecture and art. The dome of Hagia Sophia church is huge, towering 64 metres from the ground & 32 metres wide. The church was converted as a mosque and now remains as a museum of Istanbul. If you can, it's widely recommended that you take a full day to explore everything there. It can be expensive, so firstly ask your hotel if they do city tours that include the museum.

For a Great Holiday, try Turkey

If you're looking to arrange a holiday for 2009, my recommendation is to try a flight into Turkey. The popular holiday destination received over 24 million visitors last year and with even more expected this year; Turkey is proving to be one of the Mediterranean’s favourite tourist stops.



Although, constantly flirting with Europe, they keep still their own currency; the Turkish Lira and with a good indirect tax against the British pound, now is a good time to look for those inexpensive flights into Turkey. The ideal time to visit is spring to autumn, with the August temperatures, which remain frequent over 30 degrees. There many flights into Turkey available at this time in the holiday season.


Holiday destinations on the coastline of Turkey such as Izmir or Bodrum, Kusadasi are easily accessible. This part of the country is very beautiful and has some great historical places to visit, particularly Ephesus, which is famous for its temple of Artemis, one of the original seven wonders of the old world. Despite its many ranges of beautiful architecture, Turkey has large green landscapes, olive trees stopped against yellow sandy beaches and the always present free blue water of the warm sea.


In order to fly to the along the Mediterranean coastal line, you’d be landing either in Antalya or in Dalyan to visit places such as Alana, Side, Belek, Impeller and Marmaris. This region is known as the 'Turkish Coast' and spoils the holidaymaker with over 1600km of marvellous coastal line, speckled with ruined cities to be investigated. You’ll find the breathtaking Toros Mountains, a joy for sharp ramblers with its mountain traces.


Flights to Turkey from UK airports normally take around 4 to 4 ½ hours. Their tax free allowance, according to the Turkish Web site, is 200 cigarettes plus 50 cigars, 250ml limit on perfumes and 2 bottles (75cl) for spirits and wines.
Whatever your preferences, it’s safe to say that Turkey has exactly what you’re looking for, so search for your cheap flights to Turkey today and enjoy this beautiful, historical and extremely friendly country with your friends and family.
