Turquía secreta

Turkey has been a crossroads since ancient times, one of the cradles of civilization, as shown by the findings of Göbekli Tepe, and a land of passage for great conquerors such as Cyrus, Alexander the Great or Tamerlane. From the rugged Aegean and Mediterranean coasts, passing through the Anatolian steppes, and the high and threatening mountains of the Pontic Alps, peoples as varied as Hittites, Urartians, Romans, Phrygians, Lycians, Persians, Greeks, Armenians or Turks, an endless number of peoples and cultures that have left a cultural mix that is difficult to find in another country. Despite the great variety of places that Turkey has, many travelers end up going to the most famous places, such as Istanbul, Ephesus, Cappadocia or Pamukkale, forgetting many other places as spectacular as these, and much less visited. Secret Turkey intends to show through spectacular photographs and interesting texts these corners that escape the radar of most travelers; places that can be a perfect complement on any route through Turkey, or better yet, on a second visit to the country, since Turkey is one of those countries that needs more than one trip to be able to cover everything it represents and see a tiny part of it. How much do you have to offer? This book is not a guide to use, through the texts that accompany this selection of places, routes and monuments, aspects of the history, culture and curiosities of a country where there is much to discover despite its closeness. Secret Turkey is a perfect companion both for those who are looking for inspiration when planning a route through their regions and want to escape the places most visited by tourists, and for those who want to know more about this fascinating country.
