In Turkish culture, hospitality is another distinguished value. Relations with neighbors are so close and sincere that it’s very common for a neighbor to knock on another’s door and ask if they have a cup of sugar or flour to give him or her.
The concept of family is considered sacred and neighborliness is very important. In addition to these common core values, there are others that may be unique within a country or central to its identity.įor example, elderly people have a special place in Turkish people’s lives and are treated with great respect. Of course, these are only exceptions to the rule. However, most of these values are dependent upon the conscience, one’s inner person-there will always be people who stick to these values and those who don’t. I believe every culture promotes core values such as honesty, justice, fairness, equality, and so on. We promise this will be a very colorful, out-of-the-ordinary experience for you!
