THE AEGEAN:

The Aegean region is located in the west part of Turkey.  It is bounded by Aegean Sea on the west, Marmara region on the north, Mediterranean region on the south and Central Anatolia region on the east.

Due to its geographical structure the Aegean coastal plain enjoys a mild climate, with soft springs, hot  and dry summers, sunny autumns and short cool winters. Mountains oh the region are perpendicular to its shores and there are many valleys between them, the sea climate can easily reach inner parts of the region. The summer months are ideal for sunbathing and water sports,  for visiting the ancient sites  and exploring countryside, the best months are spring and autumn.

Since it has been a home for many civilizations there are many ancient cities such as Ephesus, Hierapolis, Miletos, Aphrodisias, Priene, Pergamum, Thyatira etc.

There are eight provinces in the Aegean region: Afyonkarahisar Province,  Aydın Province, Denizli Province, Izmir Province, Kutahya Province, Manisa Province, Mugla Province and Usak Province.
