Western Turkey

Rick Steves Europe Travel Guide | From the port of Kuşadası, we wander the streets of ancient Ephesus, soak in a natural spa at Pamukkale, learn why the dervishes whirl at Konya, munch lunch in a Turkish pizzeria, and cruise the Mediterranean on a traditional Turkish gulet from Antalya. Turkey is a mighty nation whose ancient heritage, Muslim faith, and western ways are coming together...and we’ll see how. | © 2014 Rick Steves Europe #ricksteves #ricksteveseurope #turkey Visit http://www.ricksteves.com for more information about this destination and other destinations in Europe.
