My Best Splurge in Turkey: Çeşme Castle! 🇹🇷

#holidayitinerary
I recently took a trip to Turkey and made what I think was my best-spent money of the whole trip. I went to the small, lesser-known town of Çeşme. Many people skip it because of the travel effort, but I am so glad I didn't! It's a romantic and beautiful Aegean town.

My Day at Çeşme Castle

The main highlight for me was visiting Çeşme Castle. The ticket was only 6 euros, and it was absolutely worth it. I loved the beautiful Ottoman architecture, and from the top, I got a stunning panoramic view of the entire town. There was also a small museum inside that was interesting to explore. Just being at a castle by the Aegean Sea was so relaxing and peaceful, and the views made for some amazing photos.

Why Çeşme Is a Must-Visit

I loved that the town felt a bit off the beaten path, yet it was so easy to get to. It's so close to Greece that you can even see it from Çeşme! The combination of the beautiful architecture, the stunning sea, and the calm atmosphere made this a truly memorable part of my trip. I highly recommend making the effort to visit if you get the chance!
