The Aegean Region of Türkiye has beautiful landscapes, dazzling coastlines, immaculate beaches, pine woods and olive groves, and for sure, long and reviviscent rivers.

The Mediterranean coast of Türkiye offers year-round sunshine, a translucent turquoise sea and golden beaches.

Türkiye’s Black Sea coast is a dramatically beautiful part of the country, but not usually at the top of the list for those that are only looking for sand-and-sun.

The Kızılırmak, meaning Red River in Turkish, is the longest river of and is born from Kızıldağ Mountains, in the northeast of Central Anatolia.

The Eastern Anatolian region has rich water sources because the Euphrates, the Tigris, the Çoruh, the Aras and the Kura rivers originate here and flow into the sea on other countries.

If you want to escape the sun, sea and sand holiday makers and experience Türkiye’s more traditional side, then this is the region for you. A crossroads of civilizations since biblical times and much earlier.
