[quote="element105"]Are Turks Arabs or Arab descents?[/quote]

Turks are certainly not Arabs.Being muslim doesnt mean that you are Arab...

Turk is the name given people who make up most of the population in Turkey, but Turks is a description used for several important peoples in Central Asia.
There are around 100 million Turks in the whole world. The Turks of Turkey are descendants of immigrants from Central Asia in the first centuries of this millennium. urks are now ethnically mixed with the indigenous population of Minor Asia as well as peoples that have immigrated to the Ottoman Empire up through the history;people from the Balkans, Caucasia, the Levant, North Africa and Mesopotamia.

Hi Elif,

What would you tell somebody who wants to visit Turkey but who would like to see the "real" country (not the main tourist areas)?

I'm from Austria, for example, and I know many people from here and from Germany who spend their summer holiday in Turkey. But I think they get to know nothing about the country or the culture if they are only staying in one of those huge holiday camps.
What do you think?

Looking forward to your reply Wink

hi,

I voted 1, because i visited Turkey a year ago.
I went to marmaris, Bodrum and a lot of other places.
And it was great! The people in the villages are very nice, Only the people who lived near the Boulevard were very insistent. Rolling Eyes
But it was a dream vacation!

ps. the turtle islands are sooo beautifull, I love that place!

Bye bye, Monique ( mo0n)
