Turkey's currency is the Turkish Lira (TRY) and while card payments are widely accepted in hotels, restaurants, and larger establishments, cash is useful for local markets, bazaars, and smaller vendors. Turkey's Grand Bazaar and local markets are well known for bargaining, so having small denominations of cash on hand makes for a far more enjoyable shopping experience.
Turkey sits across two continents and its climate varies by region and season, so we recommend checking the weather for your specific destinations and packing accordingly.

Shoulders and knees must be covered, shoes must be removed before entry, and women are required to cover their hair.
