Moving to Turkey
Turkey is a popular and vibrant expat destination that rewards those making the move with an enriching and surprising experience.

Expats relocating to Turkey find wonderful contradictions are part of a daily life that flawlessly marries the ancient and the modern: chic boutiques and exotic bazaars; church bells and Muslim muezzins, Roman ruins and Ottoman architecture alongside glass-walled modern buildings.
The nation has a population of 75 million people, 99 percent which are Muslim, and Istanbul has a significant minority of Jewish Turks compared to the rest of the country. Despite the religiously biased facts and figures the Constitution states that Turkey is a secular republic and the army is a fierce guardian of secularism in Turkey (For example, headscarves are banned in schools, colleges and government offices, and only civil marriages are recognized by law).
Turkey's most popular city and the centre where most expats are based is Istanbul, though there is much more to Turkey than a mere city.
Turkey has a wide range of landscapes, sights and characters that will readily appeal to history buffs, nightclub fanatics, archaeology nuts, sun-worshippers, city-lovers and shopping addicts. There is something for everyone in Turkey – with no end to the fascination and excitement.
Istanbul, with one foot in Europe and the other in Oriental Asia, is a captivating city with frenzied markets, stunning royal palaces and minarets, and wonderful modern art and entertainment.
Cappadocia in Central Turkey is world famous for its landscape of volcanic rock houses and chimneys and subterranean cities; to the south the 'Turquoise Coast' is a postcard of beaches and coves; and the ancient cities of Troy and Ephesus strike a rich historical chord with visitors.
