Marmara

This region is Turkey’s most populous and most heavily industrialized part, though you Can still find primordial forests hardly seen by human eyes here and there. Travellers often overlook Marmara Region except for Istanbul and a few sites in southwest and southeast of the region, but there is not really a reason why they should—in addition to quite friendly and open locals, fairly good transportation links throughout and temperate climate which make travelling in the region a breeze, you will certainly find something to catch your glimpse in any part of this region, where empires have made their debut and have seen their fall, and where dense urban areas and farmlands interact with untouched wilderness beautifully.
