Explore Turkey

Assalamualaikum everyone.

Here I share my travel photos with you guys. I've covered a few parts of Turkey which include Ankara, Istanbul, Bolu, Bursa, Kusadasi, Cappadocia, Konya and Pamukkale. I think most of us would think that Istanbul is the capital city of Turkey (or am I the only one who thinks it is?). 

Okay if you guys are not sure, Ankara is the capital city of Turkey! Both Istanbul and Ankara are considered as big cities in Turkey. Istanbul is one of the few cities in the world to be shared by two continents, half European and half Asian. It is separated by Bosphorus Straits.
