It holds many breath-taking historical monuments, some of which date back to the very beginnings of history and religion. Here are some of the most popular historical monuments in Turkey! Hagia Sophia Holy Grand Mosque Regarded as one of the most beautiful Mosques in the world, its history dates back to the 6th century. Located in the Fatih district of Istanbul. 1 Ephesus The Ephesus is known for its incredible Roman architecture.

It is now a museum that represents one of Turkeys most powerful eras. Located east of the Fatih district of Istanbul in Turkey. 4 Turkish Culture Turkey has a very diverse culture accumulated over the centuries as a result of successive civilizations, it is a mixture of different elements of the Oguz of Anatolia, and Ottoman which came after the Greeks and Romanians. Today Turkish culture is a mix of traditional Islamic culture and modern Western culture. This mix originally began as a result of the meeting of the Turks and their culture with those people on their way during the migration from Central Asia to the West. Culture The Turkish language is the official language of the state. Let's practice some common Turkish phrases! Language Almak Al + di + m = Aldim Grammar Example Religion Religion Turkey is a secular country, but it has a very large Muslim population. The military and government work diligently to keep the country secular. Over 90% of the population is Sunni Muslim. The remaining 10% belong to other Muslim sects, along with some Christians and Jews. Even if a Turk is not Muslim, they are very familiar with the practices. Turkey celebrates a lot more national and cultural festivals than religious holidays. This is probably due to the fact that the country is secular.
