Turkish Odyssey

"Turkish Odyssey, A Traveler's Guide to Turkey and Turkish Culture" was translated into Turkish as the third leg of Turkey Promotion Project by professional tourist guide Serif Yenen. The first leg was the original book in English. The second leg was the web site (http://www.turkishodyssey.com). The third leg titled "Anadolu Destani, Turkiye Gezi Rehberi" gives general information about the Turkish history, geography, economy and culture. Most of the book is dedicated to places to see according to geographical regions.

Serif Yenen, the author, created a rich visual atmosphere with 250 professional photos in Turkish Odyssey, and more than 500 at the web site. Turkish Odyssey is lavished with easy to use maps for travelers. In addition, the table of gods and goddesses, chronology of Anatolia, comprehensive glossary, architectural drawings, conversion table for measurements, and table of distances are quite practical for readers.
