Denizli

(Average 0 of 0 Ratings)

Fourteenth century North African traveler lbn Battuta called Denizli “a most important town,” and today Denizli is the Aegean region’s fastest growing city after İzmir. Garbage-strewn streets and peipetual construction work at the out skirts of town give a bad first impression, but pleasant restaurants and parks line Atatürk Bul. and İstiklâl Cad. An overabundance of chicken statues commemorate Denizli’s ties to the poultry industry. Less touristed than nearby Pamukkale but far busier, Denizli offers a nice contrast, if only for a daytrip.

There are several options for celebrating new year in Istanbul but boat cruise will be the best option.
