Located in
the very northwest of Turkey, Çanakkale is a
lovely coastal town connecting European
and Asian territories like Istanbul where The Dardanelles Strait
joins the Black Sea to the Aegean Sea. As the city is far away from the hustle
and bustle of business life, it is a
unique holiday destination where you’ll soon find yourself between the green
and blue as well as steeped in history.
Center Of The City
Enter the
city center built on the coastline
and take a breezy seaside walk. Enjoying the invigorating sea air, follow the
breeze and find yourself an inspiring place for spectacular views against deep
blue sea. Let the night take you to the heart of the city which is within easy
walking distance to the coastline. There is a daily ferry taking you to the
beatiful island Bozcaada and there are frequent ferries linking this town to the Europe territory which
is an area of unspoilt countryside laying claim history.
Gallipoli Battlefields

Gallipoli battle fields lie on the European part of the city, which was the major strong-point in the
defense of the Dardanelles in the time of the World War I, changed the course of history. This area now invites you
to enjoy several miles of golden sands lying in front of a forest near The Eagean Sea. From there, another beautiful island Gökçeada in the
distance is reachable by taking a daily ferry. The evidence of the region’s eventful
past can be seen everywhere. The Ancient
Abydos, where the story of Hero and Leander takes place, is to the west of this
region.
The ruins of Troy

No
trip to Çanakkale would be complete without a walk in the ancient city, "Troy".
The real history of Çanakkale started with Troy between 3500–3000 BC. The
“trojan horse” takes its name from “The Trojan War” taking place in the 13th
century BC, with Achilles, on the Achaean (Greek) side, and Hector on the
Trojan side. The city Troy is a land holding 13 ancient civilizations during
history. Passing through this land to the east, you’ll find Asos-Behramkale, one
of the most important place
s hosting
another ancient city “Asos”.
