Hello.

Hospitality

Hospitality is a major element of the Turkish way of life. Obeying the principles of the Koran and following his naturally friendly and welcoming inclination, Turkish is the most generous of guests. In Turkey, the foreigner is never a tourist. He is a "konuk", a guest in the strong sense of the word. The only embarrassment that the foreign traveler may feel is that he can not refuse what is so kindly offered. Accept coffee, tea, fruit will be the best thanks. Even in small towns, there will always be someone with some basic knowledge of a foreign language who, with great eagerness, will become an interpreter to help the traveler who wants to make himself understood.

Turkish coffee

Even the smallest village has its coffee "kahve" where men come to sit there to talk, drink their tea or coffee and play "tavla" (trictrac), cards or dominoes. The "Kahve", from which the cafes of Vienna had been inspired, which is traditionally sort of masculine club, became mixed in the university towns. The cafes do not serve alcoholic drinks. In Istanbul, you will still find on the banks of Istanbul Bogazi (Bosphorus) these old oriental cafes where you can smoke narghile

The shopping

The shopping is a great hobby difficult to survive in front of the wealth and the quality of the handmade facts: carpets, leather and suede clothes, objects in onyx, bronze, silver, ceramic, foam pipes, Hookahs, Embroidery ...

Travelers

will feast with coffee or friendship. This should not stop you from changing, just for the mood. Tipping Unlike other countries, tipping is never required in Turkey, but remember that the standard of living remains low and a service deserves to be paid.
