Turkey’s Black Sea coastline stretches for 1,175 km. Only 3% of Turkey is in Europe. The rest of the country is part of the Asian continent.
Home to one of the earliest settlements in the world, understanding Turkish history could take a lifetime. The Republic of Turkey sits at the intersect of Europe and Asia, but modern culture often associates it most with the Middle East. Istanbul, the largest city in the country, is split in the center, where the west bank is part of the European continent and the east bank is in Asia. A wildly diverse country, and surrounded by seas, Turkish cuisine is as diverse as it gets. But all you have to do is visit a Turkish home to know that, as you'll never leave unfed.
