Turkey

Turkey is an intercontinental country that has a unique geographic position. The country is located mainly on the Anatolian peninsula in Western Asia, with a smaller portion on the Balkan peninsula in Southeastern Europe. Throughout its history, It has acted as a bridge between the two continents, connected by The Bosporus – an internationally significant waterway that can be accessed via Istanbul. The Turkey citizenship can be obtained by investing 250,000 US dollars in the country, and The First Group will facilitate the process.

As a tourist destination, Turkey offers beautiful natural scenery, breathtaking seascapes, great shopping, and it has one of Europe’s most vibrant art scenes. Although Turkey’s spectacular coastline and surrounding islands draw tourists from across the globe, the country boasts over 130 mountain ranges which in the wintertime transforms Turkey into a skier’s paradise.

With a newly booming economy, Turkey is famous for a diverse set of Oriental and European elements – from traditional Turkish tea to the majestic Hagia Sophia. It’s also famous for its carpets, hammam and bazaars, and sweet treats like Turkish Delight and baklava. Turkey has the world’s 19th largest GDP.
