Of course when picking a place to fly off to, there a number of factors to consider. Everything from price, activities and the kind of experience and adventures you’re hoping to get out of your trip!

Which is why we think the number one travel spot for Pakistanis this summer is Turkey. And here’s why:

1. It is absolutely STUNNING.

Everything from the hot air balloons of Capadoccia to the serenity of the Bosphorus, everything about Turkey is absolutely beautiful. The city is complete magic, there is no denying it.

2. Delicious halal food line the streets.

4. It’s a great place to go if you’re on a budget.

5. Turkish people LOVE PAKISTANIS.

Take it from a Pakistani who has been to Turkey, they LOVE knowing that you’re from Pakistan. They consider us their friends, siblings and more importantly (sometimes) give us discounts too. Love you Turkey.

6. Language is more or less not such a problem.

Point number 5 will help with this. Apart from that, a HUGE portion of Turkey understands and speaks English as well. And for those of you who read and understand Arabic, you are in luck.

7. Haggling in Turkey? IT’S GREAT.

From the shops at Liberty Market to the stalls in the Grand Bazaar, one of Istanbul’s iconic markets – haggling carries and every Pakistani knows this is one of the best things EVER.

8. It’s a country FULL of culture, arts, and music.
