3Türkiye Cumhuriyeti Republic of Turkey
(Turkish Türkiye), known officially as the
Republic of Turkey Türkiye Cumhuriyeti is a
Eurasian country that stretches across the
Anatolian peninsula in western Asia and Thrace
(Rumania) in the Balkan region of southeastern
Europe. Turkey is bordered by eight countries
Bulgaria to the northwest Greece to the west
Georgia to the northeast Armenia, Azerbaijan
(the exclave of Nakhichevan) and Iran to the
east and Iraq and Syria to the southeast. The
Mediterranean Sea and Cyprus are to the south
the Aegean Sea and Archipelago are to the west
and the Black Sea is to the north. Separating
Anatolia and Thrace are the Sea of Marmara and
the Turkish Straits (the Bosporus and the
Dardanelles), which are commonly reckoned to
delineate the border between Asia and Europe,
thereby making Turkey transcontinental.
4Türkiye Cumhuriyeti Republic of Turkey
Turkey is a democratic, secular, unitary,
constitutional republic whose political system
was established in 1923 under the leadership of
Mustafa Kemal Atatürk, following the fall of the
Ottoman Empire in the aftermath of World War I.
Since then, Turkey has become increasingly
integrated with the West through membership in
organizations such as the Council of Europe,
NATO, OECD, OSCE and the G-20 major economies.
Turkey began full membership negotiations with
the European Union in 2005, having been an
associate member of the EEC since 1963, and
having reached a customs union agreement in 1995.
Meanwhile, Turkey has continued to foster close
cultural, political, economic and industrial
relations with the Eastern world, particularly
with the states of the Middle East and Central
Asia, through membership in organizations such as
the OIC and ECO. Turkey is classified as a
developed country by the CIA and as a regional
power by political scientists and economists
worldwide.

Republic era Main articles History of the
Republic of Turkey and Atatürk's reforms
Mustafa Kemal Atatürk, founder and first
President of the Republic of Turkey
The occupation of Istanbul and Izmir by the
Allies in the aftermath of World War I prompted
the establishment of the Turkish national
movement. Under the leadership of Mustafa Kemal
Pasha, a military commander who had distinguished
himself during the Battle of Gallipoli, the
Turkish War of Independence was waged with the
aim of revoking the terms of the Treaty of
Sèvres. By September 18, 1922, the occupying
armies were repelled and the country saw the
birth of the new Turkish state. On November 1,
the newly founded parliament formally abolished
the Sultanate, thus ending 623 years of
Ottoman rule. The Treaty of Lausanne of July 24,
1923, led to the international recognition of the
sovereignty of the newly formed "Republic of
Turkey" as the successor state of the Ottoman
Empire, and the republic was officially
proclaimed on October 29, 1923, in the new
capital of Ankara.

16ISTANBUL
"There, God and human, nature and art are
together, they have created such a perfect place
that it is valuable to see." Lamartines famous
poetic line reveals his love for Istanbul,
describing the embracing of two continents, with
one arm reaching out to Asia and the other to
Europe. Istanbul still remains the commercial,
historical and cultural pulse of Turkey, and its
beauty lies in its ability to embrace its
contradictions. Ancient and modern, religious and
secular, Asia and Europe, mystical and earthly
all co-exist here.
17ISTANBUL
The Bosphorus
The Bosphorus Bridge was builet at 1970.It just
open for car traffic.The most important thing, it

This horn-shaped estuary divides European
Istanbul. One of the best natural harbours in the
world, it was once the centre for the Byzantine
and Ottoman navies and commercial shipping
interests. Today, attractive parks and promenades
line the shores, a picturesque scene especially
as the sun goes down over the water.
At Fener and Balat, neighbourhoods midway up the
Golden Horn, there are entire streets filled with
old wooden houses, churches, and synagogues
dating from Byzantine and Ottoman times. The
Orthodox Patriarchy resides at Fener and a little
further up the Golden Horn at Eyup, are some
wonderful examples of Ottoman architecture.
19ISTANBUL
Beyoglu and Taksim Beyoglu is an interesting
example of a district with European-influenced
architecture, from a century before. Europes
second oldest subway, Tunel was built by the
French in 1875, must be also one of the shortest
offering a one-stop ride to start of Taksim.
Near to Tunel is the Galata district, whose
Galata Tower became a famous symbols of Istanbul,
and the top of which offers a tremendous 180
degree view of the city.
20ISTANBUL
Sultanahmet Many places of tourist interest are
concentrated in Sultanahmet, heart of the
Imperial Centre of the Ottoman Empire. The most
important places in this area, all of which are
described in detail in the Places of Interest
section, are Topkapi Palace, Aya Sofia, Sultan
Ahmet Camii (the Blue Mosque), the Hippodrome,
Kapali Carsi (Covered Market), Yerebatan Sarnici
and the Museum of Islamic Art.
21ISTANBUL

Bosphorus, and is still a popular spot for
residents and visitors. The village is within a
triangle of a mosque, church and synagogue, and
is near Ciragan Palace, Kabatas High School,
Feriye, Princess Hotel.
22ISTANBUL
Sariyer The first sight of Sariyer is where the
Bosphorus connects with the Black Sea, after the
bend in the river after Tarabya. Around this
area, old summer houses, embassies and fish
restaurants line the river, and a narrow road
which separates it from Buyukdere, continues
along to the beaches of Kilyos.
Sariyer and Rumeli Kavagi are the final wharfs
along the European side visited by the Bosphorus
boat trips. Both these districts, famous for
their fish restaurants along with Anadolu Kavagi,
get very crowded at weekends and holidays with
Istanbul residents escaping the city.

the Crimean War (1854-56), near the military
hospital.
24ISTANBUL
Polonezköy Polonezköy, although still within the
city, is 25 km. away from the centre and not easy
to reach by public transport. Translated as
village of the Poles, the village has a
fascinating history It was established in 1848
by Prince Czartorisky, leader of the Polish
nationals who was granted exile in the Ottoman
Empire to oppression in the Balkans. During his
exile, he succeeded in establishing a community
of Balkans, which still survives, on the plot of

Buyukada (the Great Island). Large wooden
mansions still remain from the 19th century when
wealthy Greek and Armernian bankers built them as
holiday villas. The island has always been a
place predominantly inhabited by minorities,
hence Islam has never had a strong presence here.

MUSEUMS AND ANCIENT CITIES
Hagia Sophia (Ayasofya) Museum Aya Sophia was,
for nearly a thousand years, the largest enclosed
space in the world, and still seen as one of the
worlds most important architectural monuments.

the 6th century Byzantine underground Basilica
cistern, with 335 massive Corinthian columns

29ISTANBUL
Topkapi Palace One of the most astounding and
popular places to visit in Istanbul is Topkapi
Palace, the symbolic and political centre of the
Ottoman Empire between the 15th and 19th
centuries. It stands on the tip of land where the
Golden Horn, the Sea of Marmara and the Bosphorus
come together, and is a maze of buildings
centered around a series of courtyards, typical
of Islamic tradition. Such is the complexity of
each building, it will take many hours in order
to be explored properly.
30ISTANBUL
Built in the reign of Sultan I Abdulmecit during
the 19th century, this over-ornate palace lies
along the European coast of the Bosphorus.
Dolmabahce Palace was constructed between 1843
and 1856, mixing different European artistic
influences and built by Abdulmecits architect,
Karabet Balya.

planned, with 285 chambers and 43 halls. It has a
600m long pier along the river, with two huge
monumental gates. The palace is surrounded by
well-maintained and immaculate gardens, with an
immense 56-columned greeting hall, with 750
lights illuminated from 4.5 tonnes of crystal

vegetables are used as side dishes. Meat balls,

classic dishes found in any kebab restaurant,
together with peppers, yoghurt, eggplant. Because

grilled or fried with olive oil and lemon
juice. For a meal out which is lively and
entertaining, the taverns and fish restaurants
around Kumkapi, west of Sultanahmet, are great
