There's plenty to like about Turkey, from the Gold Suk in Adana (basically a mall inside a huge vault with nothing but vendors selling awesome jewelry for really cheap) to the old artifact castles dotting the countryside. If you have a chance to go to Incurlik, drop in to a restaurant called Mudjats (or something simliar) and grab some Chicken Tava. Now I'm not sure if they are still there, but if they are you are in for a treat.
