Useful tips for travelers
Tipping: Common in Turkey, especially in restaurants and hotels. 5–10% is standard.

Bargaining: Turks love to bargain. Don’t hesitate to lower the price by 30–50% at markets — it’s part of the culture!
Religion
The main religion in Turkey is Sunni Islam. There is a strong atmosphere of respect for traditions and religion. In mosques, you must remove your shoes and dress modestly, covering shoulders and knees.
