Knocking at Europe's door yet on the threshold of Asia, Turkey is truly a land of contrasts. Being situated at the intersection of Europe and Asia geographically, Turkey was influenced by both the Eastern and the Western civilizations. Turkey is a fairlysecular country and homosexuality has not been illegal since the republic was founded in 1923. The gay culture of Turkey, especially Istanbul, has become very Europeanized since the early 1990's. With a remarkable tolerance of other customs, no wonderTurkiye (Turkey) is among the top 10 most visited countries in the world for more than decade. The Turks will offer a warm welcome to all the guests visiting their country regardless of nationality, race, religion or sexual orientation.
