Description: | Select Guide Rating An entertaining selection of the most rewarding places to visit in one of the most historically significant countries in the world. A guide book in its own right, but above all a thoughtful, opinionated, and supremely well informed supplement and corrective to conventional guides. Rich in culture and history, Turkey is an infinitely rewarding proposition for the discriminating traveller. Francis Russell has been visiting Turkey for more than thirty years, and with 123 recommended destinations he provides a fascinating and wonderfully well informed itinerary. As well as covering the finest sites in the obvious tourist centres such as Istanbul, and all the major Hellenistic, Roman and Byzantine sites, he provides extensive and thoughtful coverage of Armenian and Georgian churches, Seljuk and Ottoman monuments and all the great buildings of Islamic Turkey. |
