Presentation Summary
My cultural project was about tourism in Turkey. It was based on the background of the tourism in Turkey that how it became one of the top 10 tourism attraction in the world in 2014. Historical and cultural sites are famous to tourists and there are also health therapies that they can enjoy. I introduced two of the tourist attractions, which were Pamukkale and Oludeniz. Pamukkale means "cotton castle" and it is famous for its white terraces. People have bathed in its hot spring for thousands of years. Oludeniz is located in Mediterranean and is one of the top 5 beaches in the world. I also highlighted some concerns of tourism in Turkey since it is declining because of terrorism.
