Known for its coffee, tea, baklava, carpets, and being the origin of tulips, Turkey has a relatively large population of around 82 million people. Among the best places to live in Turkey are vibrant cities and picturesque towns that offer rich culture and natural beauty. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Although Istanbul is the largest city in Turkey, it is not the capital, as Ankara holds this spot. Istanbul, on the other hand, is the only city in the world that straddles two continents \u2013 Europe and Asia, making it a unique and attractive place to call home.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This bustling city is also home to the Grand Bazaar, which dates back to the 14th century, has over 3,000 stores and consists of a labyrinth of 61 streets. Another interesting fact about Istanbul is that it is home to around 3,000 mosques, while the entire country has over 82,000.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Moving on to nature, the country\u2019s Black Sea coastline stretches for 1,175 km and there are over 130 peaks and spectacular mountain ranges, which reach over 3,000 metres, with Europe\u2019s longest natural ski slope located in Turkey. Meanwhile, the country is also home to 13 Unesco World Heritage Sites, with a whopping 62 being on the tentative list. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

These range from a Mesolithic temple, the Ephesus Biblical city and a World War One battlefield in Gallipoli, which make Turkey the sixth-most visited tourist destination in the world. However, if you’re looking to not only travel there but move to Turkey<\/a>, here is where you should look into settling.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
