Bodrum - Airport City
Formerly known as Hallicarnassus, Bodrum is the home of the great Mausoleum, one the seven wonders of antiquity, the famous castle, amphitheatre and to a very unique marine museum. Nowadays, it is Turkey's most popular seaside tourist destination, a party town with a magnificent mountain surrounding, that is full of great markets. The most impressive landmark is the Bodrum Castle, built by the Crusaders in the 15th century, overlooking the harbor and the International Marina. The castle grounds includes a Museum of Underwater Archeology and hosts several cultural festivals throughout the year. From here, you can take daytrips to the nearby islands or you can enjoy the Mavi Yoluculu (the "Blue Cruise"), Cevat's romanticized weeklong journey along the glorious coastlines of the Mediterranean. | Book this City | Bodrum-Gumbet

Despite the recent developments, the village still retains a relaxed, rural ambience. | Book this City | Bodrum-Turgutreis
Lying at the outermost promontory of the Bodrum peninsula, Turgutreis has transformed itself from a fishing village to a bustling holiday resort. A new modern marina has been built to complement its long sandy beach. Together with neighboring Kadikalesi, Turgutreis is a 'Windsurfers' Paradise'. The entire Bodrum peninsula offers wonderful opportunities for water sports such as: water skiing, parasailing, dinghy sailing, windsurfing or canoeing. From Turgutreis you can also take day trips to Bodrum to visit the Castle of St Peter with its amazing maritime museum, or you can experience a day out to Ephesus - one of the best-preserved archaeological sites in the world.

Besides the great beaches there are some interesting historic landmarks not to be missed such as: the ancient ruins of the fortress and its gates, which remind to this day of the impact the Ottomans had on the city at the beginning of the 15th century. Guvercin Ada - the peninsula at the end of the bay, has a castle and swimming beaches, including a private beach and cafe with a view back across the bay to the harbor of Kusadasi. Kusadasi is also an excellent starting point to explore some impressive historical sights including Miletos and Ephesus and the rock formations at Pamukkale. | Book this City | Pamukkale
Pamukkale, meaning "cotton castle" in Turkish, is a natural wonder famous not only for the entrancing beauty of its unique geological formations but also for its historical remains. The calcium oxide-rich waters flowing down the southern slope of Caldag located north of the ruins have, over the millennia, built up deposits of white travertine on the plateau thus the name of this place. It is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The site's ancient name was Hierapolis (Holy City) and it has been a luxury resort town richly adorned with magnificent sculptures. The well preserved theater of Hierapolis offers magnificent view of the plain below. The ancient city of Hierapolis was built on top of the white "castle" which is in total about 2700 meters long and 160m high and can be seen from a great distance. | Book this City |
