Due to the size of the Ottoman Empire, Turkish cuisine was heavily influenced by its neighbors, and in turn, Turkey influenced them as well. The use of lamb, olives and olive oil, and salads in the typical diet are all culinary influences adopted by Western nations. Americans probably know some Turkish dishes and sweets, such as kebab (sometimes spelled kebap), pide (pita) bread with köfte meatballs, lokum (better known as Turkish Delight), and baklava. The best way to try a number of dishes at once is to order a meze plate, similar to Spanish tapas. To explore Turkish cuisine and delicacies by city, click here.

Istanbul

Istanbul is one of the truly great romantic cities. Istanbul is home to a layering of civilization on civilization, of empire built on empire. A stroll through this historic city will reveal ancient Roman hippodromes, peristyles, and aqueducts, the greatest excesses of the Byzantine Empire and the mystique and power of the Ottoman Empire. In this sprawling, continent-spanning city you can tramp the streets where crusaders and janissaries once marched; admire mosques that are the most sublime architectural expressions of Islamic piety; peer into the sultan's harem; and hunt for bargains in the Kapali Carsi. Visit and explore the Ayasofya,Topkapi Palace, Dolmabahce Palace, the Blue Mosque, the Grand Bazaar and the Egyptian Spice Bazaar, Suleymaniye Camii, St. Savior in Chora, the New Mosque, Galata Tower, Taksim Square, the Hippodrome and so much more.
