National Geographic didn't lie to me. Türkiye is so beautiful that it makes me speechless (with a guide ||| Who can resist Turkey

|||Who can say no to Turkey? Who can resist Türkiye? You can get a visa on arrival in 10 minutes. You can go anywhere you want! The Mediterranean coast is picturesque, and the strange rocks and underground cities of Cappadocia are like a fairyland. The ancient cities of Hierapolis and Ephesus have witnessed thousands of years of changes. It is beautiful, but there are also many pitfalls. Here are some of the pitfalls in Turkey: ★1. Never pick up a shoe brush that has fallen on the road! A common scam is that after you pick up a shoe brush, the shoe shiner will ask you to lift your feet to the shoe shine rack, apply a spoonful of oil to the shoes, and then directly ask for 400 liras (about RMB 100) 2. Taking a taxi is really bad. For example, when you take an Uber, when you arrive at the destination, the meter shows more than 400 yuan, but the actual platform charge is more than 1,000 yuan, plus additional fees. The tour guide said that Turkish taxis also overcharge passengers, regardless of whether they are local or foreign. ★3. If someone approaches you, don’t pay any attention to him, as they are the ones who are trying to lure you to black bars and rip you off. ★4. Don’t pay attention to strangers who ask for directions. The tour guide said it’s common to see scammers in pairs, one pretending to ask for directions while the other takes the opportunity to pick up your bag. Avoiding the above pitfalls, I had a lot of fun. Let me share my 11-day itinerary~ ★In the first three days, I flew from Shanghai to Istanbul, and then to Izmir. I visited Sirince (drank many kinds of fruit wine), the ancient city of Ephesus (an important commercial center in ancient Rome), Pamukkale (very beautiful) and the ruins of the ancient city of Hierapolis (very spectacular). I also experienced roasted lamb and a hot spring bath. It is really comfortable to soak in hot springs in winter. ★On the 4th and 5th days, we took a bus to Fethiye on the Mediterranean coast to see the Dead Sea, the Blue Lagoon (the sea water is sapphire-colored) and the old town of Paspatur (with many Turkish specialty shops), experienced paragliding, and walked along the coastal highway D400 that crosses the Dead Sea, the Mediterranean Sea, and the Aegean Sea to the small town of Kaş (medieval style), experienced the special grilled fish lunch, and arrived at the old town of Kaleici Antalya. ★On the sixth day, we were in the Tenac Mountain area (where we saw many strange-shaped rocks), and we also visited Konya, the "birthplace of the whirling dance," and the Mevlana Museum, and arrived in Cappadocia (the stone forest was spectacular). Days 7-8 in Cappadocia mainly involved hot air balloon rides, experiencing traditional Turkish costumes and food in local residents' homes, visiting the Ancient Rome Open Air Museum, fairy chimneys and Derinku Underground City, eating clay pot meals, and a thousand--the fairytale town at night is really romantic! Fly to Istanbul at night~ ★On the ninth day, we visited the Blue Mosque and the ancient Roman Colosseum, and tried the special barbecue lunch. All three meals are group meals, so there is no problem filling your stomach. Some group members are not very used to barbecue, but I personally think it is quite delicious. ★Free activities on the tenth day (climb the Pierre Loti Mountain by cable car + cruise the Bosphorus Strait. Europe is on the left and Asia is on the right. The architectural styles on both sides of the Strait are very different. You can feel the cultural integration across Asia and Europe) ★ Day 11: I reluctantly returned to my country~ $I went alone, and I was afraid it was unsafe, so I signed up for a tour that my classmate had participated in before. It cost me over 10,000 yuan (air tickets, five-star hotels, three meals, and tickets to attractions)
