BALKAN COUNTRIES or simply called BALKANS

The borders of the Balkans are, due to many contrasting definitions, disputed. There exists no universal agreement on the region's components. The term by most definitions fully encompasses Albania, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Bulgaria, Greece, Kosovo, Montenegro, North Macedonia, European Turkey, the Romanian coast, most of Serbia, large parts of Croatia and southern parts of Slovenia. Sometimes the term includes all of Romania and Serbia. The Province of Trieste in northeastern Italy, although by some definitions considered part of the peninsula, is generally excluded. Although they have no territory on the peninsula, Hungary and Moldova are occasionally incorporated into broader discussions of the Balkans due to cultural or historical affiliations, along with all of Croatia and Slovenia.

The origin of the word Balkan is obscure; it may be related to Turkish bālk 'mud' (from Proto-Turkic *bal 'mud, clay; thick or gluey substance', cf. also Turkic bal 'honey'), and the Turkish suffix -an 'swampy forest' or Persian bālā-khāna 'big high house'.It was used mainly during the time of the Ottoman Empire. In both Ottoman Turkish and modern Turkish, balkan means 'chain of wooded mountains'.

🔆Cycling provides the optimum pace to appreciate fully this mesmerizing dance of the magnificence of history and the spellbinding beauty of the land that is Türkiye. Be prepared to be transported back in time, to pedal in the footsteps of Neolithic man right through to the modern world.

🚲 İstanbul, a bustling city that spreads over two continents, is a melting pot of cultures and religions. Cycling in İstanbul runs the spectrum from a stunning ride through imperial monuments on the Historical Peninsula to a romantic escape from the city to the Princes’ Islands on a day trip. Whether you are visiting the city for a day or in between business meetings, you will find that cycling is the most pleasant way to discover this beautiful and vast city. İstanbul is full of historical and natural surprises for explorers on two wheels. The Bosphorus, the natural strait that divides Europe from Asia, will accompany you from the Marmara Sea to the Black Sea in the north with jewel-like wooden seaside mansions, rose-purple Judas trees along its shores, and with some dolphins, if you are lucky.

🚲 Who can resist winding through the fairy chimneys of magical Cappadocia? The geological phenomena create a lunar-like landscape fractured by deep valleys that have justly earned UNESCO World Heritage status. Cappadocia is not only a great mountain bike destination, it is equally blessed when it comes to gravel and road biking. The amazing network of trails will surprise you with cave dwellings and hidden churches of early Christianity.
