About this poll

Türkiye's holiday geography ranges from Aegean and Mediterranean coves to Central Anatolian valleys, Black Sea highlands and historic cities in the southeast. This poll brings together destinations from different regions and different styles of travel rather than one coastline.

What to consider

Natural beauty, historic and cultural texture, ease of access and seasonal suitability are useful measures. Cappadocia can be visited year-round, while a cove like Ölüdeniz is mostly a summer destination.

How the list was built

This poll includes destinations whose location and basic character were verified through Wikipedia; coves or spots frequently mentioned online but not confirmed as an independent settlement or area were excluded.

About the options

Kaş, Kalkan and Ölüdeniz are standout resorts on the Lycian coast, while Alaçatı and Çeşme are known for windsurfing and vineyards. Göreme and Ürgüp in Cappadocia draw visitors year-round for their fairy chimneys and hot-air balloon tours. Safranbolu and Mardin showcase Ottoman and Middle Eastern architecture, while Uzungöl and the Ayder plateau represent the Black Sea's green landscapes.
