Destination
There is something so delightful, so magnificent about Turkey that everyone should visit the country at least once in a lifetime.
Anatolia (also known as Asia Minor) is titled the cradle of Christianity. It was here that followers of Jesus Christ were first called Christians by their Roman rulers. Early paganistic ritual gave way to Christianity but was later replaced by the Islamic faith of the invading Selcuks. Today, Turkey is visited annually by thousands of religious pilgrims from all over the world. The Apostle Paul, born in Tarsus, travelled through Southern and Western Anatolia three times, preaching and converting thousands. The Seven Churches are located in Western Turkey. They are seven major churches of Early Christianity, as mentioned in the New Testament Book of Revelations. "Churches" in this context refers to the community of Christians living in each city. The term does not merely refer to the building or buildings in which people gathered for worship. Today, this historic site mostly consists of ruins. Devoted invites you to travel with us to this second Holy Land. Refer to our advert for more detail on our Devoted-Turkey tours.
