The best Turkish breakfast I've ever had. You can try everything with an addition. You don't need to book, just come. Strictly speaking, it's a Lebanese restaurant, and what I call Turkish breakfast is actually a brunch, but just believe me, it's a must.

Balloon flight over Cappadocia
Turkey
🤯, Destinations
A balloon ride turned out to be a real wonder. And the fact that it is at sunrise only adds to the feeling of magic - the valleys and rocks below turn gray, pink, and then brighten in the sun. Regardless of the company you fly with, everything is worth it and lasts the same. It is worth booking in advance. And it's not scary at all.
