Why you should go to Izmir

While not as commonly known as the country’s popular tourist destinations such as Istanbul or Ankara, Turkey’s third-largest city is not short of cultural, historic, or captivating places to visit.

Rich with Islamic culture, Izmir is packed with vibrant and colourful architecture, and
is home to a number of beautiful mosques located in various areas across the city. Lovers of history will also be delighted by ancient ruins, dating as far back as the 4th century BC.

Being just a stone's throw away from resorts that neighbour the warm waters of the Mediterranean Sea, you can easily swap the immersive city streets and bustling marketplaces for relaxing coastal delights.

Whether you prefer to explore the intricacies of a cultural city, or the unwinding beachfront resorts, you’ll be spoilt for choice when flying from Liverpool to Izmir.

When you should go to Izmir

Summer is the height of tourism in the Izmir region, and if you want the most sunshine and the longest days, this is the time to visit. If you were hoping to chase the sun without the influx of tourist crowds, the months of September and October remain warm and pleasant, and visits to nearby tourist sites are likely to be more leisurely with fewer visitors at these times.

Where to stay in Izmir

If you like to be close to the action, Konak is a central location a short distance away from many of the city's popular tourist attractions. Known for its vibrant shopping and dining lifestyle, Konak is perfect for those wanting to fully immerse themselves in Turkish culture.

For an equally cultural experience, but with a quieter and more family friendly vibe, Bayrakli is the perfect location for you. With a picturesque coastline and an intricate web of beautiful streets filled with history and culture, Bayrakli has something for the entire family to enjoy.

Located along the mouth of the Gediz river, Çiğli is an ideal place to stay if you’re a lover of nature and the outdoors.
