Top Tourist Attractions to See in Bodrum, Turkey

Are you planning a honeymoon right after your wedding or perhaps later on and still looking for that perfect romantic honeymoon destination? Well, there is no doubt that Turkey offers a big variety of places to visit on your honeymoon in Turkey, and Bodrum should certainly be one Turkish city to consider. Before we begin, here’s a little information on Bodrum.

Bodrum was once known as Halicarnassus, and it is located in the southwestern region of Aegean in Turkey. It was famous for the Mausoleum of Mausolus, which was one of the Seven Wonders of the World in ancient times. Perhaps, what this city is best known for is the Bodrum Castle, which has been completely rebuilt to give tourists a taste of their heritage.

According to WikiTravel "Bodrum is a fascinating place as it has a pleasing contrast between the Ancient city - where there are discernable fragments everywhere in the town -and a playground for rich Turks and an array of foreign visitors. It is one of the centers of the Turkish Tourist industry and is the market town for the Bodrum Peninsula which consists of a number of towns and villages nestling on the edge of the Coast."

Here you will find the top things to do in Bodrum!
