Muğla in General Muğla Province, which has a coastline of 1.480 km on Mediteraanean and Aegean Seas, with its 67% of forest cover, is one of the most green provinces in Turkey. 22% of the total area is Special Environmental Protection Areas. There are 8 nature parks and 73 recreation areas belonging to the forestry administration. Köyceğiz and Yılanlı-Çakmak Wildlife Development Areas are suitable for hunting tourism. There are so many alternatives for activities such as; diving in Bodrum, Fethiye Marmaris, kitesurfing in Akyaka, paragliding ig Babadağ, trekking in on hiking trails of ancient Caria and Lycia and rafting on the Dalaman River. All year round flights on 2 international airports (Bodrum&Dalaman) and it is also available nonstop flights to İstanbul and Ankara.

It is possible to say coastal towns where tourism activities are intense are more developed than inland areas. According to the State Planning Organization’s Socioeconomic Develoment Index Ranking Research based on 2004 socioeconomic data of 872 districts, Marmaris is in the 22nd as the most developed and Kavaklıdere is in the 374th being the least developed district in Muğla Province. From 2004 on, it can be easily estimated that touristic towns with increasing attraction have gone higher in ranking.

  • Blue Cruise Turkey
    BLUE CRUISE along the Aegean coast of Turkey The Blue Cruise is ordinarily advertised as renting a private yacht (with captain and sta# on board), cruising along the southwestern coast of Turkey, making stops to swim, hike and see historical ruins. This sounds exciting but it misses the atmosphere of the Blue Cruise that is almost spiritual. As you board your yacht, you also cut the mental ties with land. You embark on a di#erent existence, as if nothing else matters outside your yacht, or even exists for that matter. What makes the Blue Cruise unique is the lack of requirements and responsibilities - at last the freedom to do absolutely nothing and with it, a complete freedom of mind. You can gaze at the sea for hours on end, you can swim everyday, sleep all day or you can finish that book that you weren’t able to finish for ages because of the lack of time. However if you want “action” to spend your time, you will never be at a loss to find yourself activities to try either. When the yacht is anchored, you can discover nearby coves by canoes; you can cover greater distance than swimming and its good exercise for your biceps! Or you can hail down one of the speed boats that tour the coves and bargain for water skiing, jetskis or banana rides. And it goes without saying that you can hike and climb to your heart’s content the pine and olive covered hills that rise from the shore to discover historical ruins from Lycians, Anatolian Greeks, Romans, Byzantines and Ottomans.

The changes which have occured in the profile and tendency of the customers, force the tourism sector inevi- tably to improve the products according to the demand’s needs. In order to meet the needs and expectations of the customers and changed features of the demands, it is necessary to improve new tourism types in the different fields. Interesting tourism products and services are showed as the alternative of the mass tourism and reflect the whole tendencies which have improved to satisfy different and special interest beyond the interest which have improved around sea, sun and sand. So, improving interesting tourism products and services become very im- portant. One of the interesting tourism products and services (especially for the cultural tourism) is the tradi- tional Turkish Bath (Turkish Hamam) which have been to be transferred from the past to the present.

  • Lifestyle Migration to Turkey
    LIFESTYLE MIGRATION TO TURKEY: EU CITIZENS LIVING ON THE TURKISH SUNBELT1 İlkay Südaş, PhD [email protected] EGE UNIVERSITY, FACULTY OF LETTERS, DEPARTMENT OF GEOGRAPHY, TURKEY Lifestyle migration terms the migration movement of relatively affluent individuals moving voluntarily to the places where they believe they can lead a better life. This is a form of migration that emerges related to rapid globalization and there is a strong nexus between lifestyle migration and tourism. Repeating previous tourist visits to the destinations are the main connection with the migration areas and purchasing second homes is a “stepping stone” (Casado-Diaz 2012) towards permanent or seasonal retirement migration. Friends and relatives already living in the destination are also influential in migration decision. O’Reilly and Benson (2009, 2) point out that the previous research has attempted to link the mobilities to wider phenomena using umbrella concepts such as retirement migration, leisure migration, international counter-urbanization, second home ownership, amenity seeking or seasonal migration. Combining these different conceptualizations, O’Reilly and Benson (2009) suggest the term “lifestyle migration” which is described as the migration movement of “relatively affluent individuals, moving, en masse, either part or full time, permanently or temporarily, to countries where the cost of living and/or the price of property is cheaper; places which, for various reasons, signify a better quality or pace of life. Lifestyle migrants are individuals with high mobility, permanently or seasonally relocating to the areas in pursuit of a better way of life. The seasonal or permanent migration of elderly northern Europeans towards the coastal areas of Southern European countries like Spain, Portugal, France, Italy and Greece has become an important phenomenon.

Typifications, synonym lists, descriptions, ecology, phytogeography and distribution maps are provided for all non-apendix groups of Ophrys taxa and relationships to similar taxa are discussed. The morphological descriptions are supported by detailed dissectional hand drawings. As a result of this study, new characteristics which had not been previously described in Turkish Flora were observed. These detailed morphological differences and a useful illustrated identification key with flower diagrams were prepared for all non-appendix Ophrys taxa distributed in the Antalya Province. In addition, we added new localities to the known distribution areas of taxa. Key words: Ophrys, Orchidaceae, Antalya, morphology, taxonomy ---------- ---------- Antalya ili’nde yayılış gösteren eksiz Ophrys L.

The sample was identified based on both conventional methods and ITS rDNA region-based molecular phylogeny. By taking into account the high sequence similarity between the sample (ANK Akata & Altuntaş 690) and Battarrea phalloides the relevant specimen was considered to be B. Phalloides and the morphological data also strengthen this finding. In this study, photos of macro and microscopic structures, a short description, scanning electron microscope (SEM) images of spores and elaters, and the ITS rDNA region-based molecular phylogeny of the samples were given. Also, the distribution of B. phalloides specimens identified thus far from Turkey was revealed for the first time in this study.
