A welcome from Türkiye
Hoş geldiniz
Hosh gel-di-niz“Welcome, it is good that you came”
Apple tea on a Bosphorus terrace, muezzin over rooftops of copper.
Türkiye stands at the seam of continents — Byzantine domes, Ottoman palaces, Cappadocian caves. Hospitality is a duty of honour here; you will not leave a room without being offered tea.
Why Türkiye
“Istanbul was the capital of my imagination long before I ever set foot in it.”
