We recently spent 2 weeks in Turkey and found that the best places are when you leave Istanbul! It's a nice city, and good to spend a few days in (go to the Eygptian bazaar near the ferry stops, the blue mosque and the palace gardens, take a ferry ride around) but there's so many other great places in Turkey! Ephesus is amazing if you want to see an impressive Roman city (complete with toilets, library, theatre and even brothel!) and there's some pretty seaside towns like Kas and Fetihye, but our two favourite places were -
- Cappadocia (stay in Gorome, Star Cave pension was nice) - you absolutely have to visit this area, the lava has been eroded away to form a landscape so bizarre you can't get enough of it! Somewhere I read it described as 'the Grand Canyon on acid' and you can easily spend 3 or 4 days just wandering or cycling or hiring a scooter and exploring all the valleys and towns, climbing inside the ancient monasteries (called fairy chimneys - you'll see why!) and getting lost in underground cities. You can't miss it if you go to Turkey.
- Olympos was also great for different reasons - it's down by the beach and scattered with ancient ruins and looks so picturesque! You can stay in a treehouse (we stayed at Kadir's which was great fun, lots of partying and chilling and fun people, but there are quieter places too) and go to see the eternal flame (the Olympic flame!) at night - remember to take marshmallows!
Hope this helps! Remember thank you in Turkish sounds like "Two sugars and dream" - will make you friends!

Oh, you will love it. Istanbul for sure. Go to the Grand Baazar,but also don't miss the local market on the side street beside the main square by the bridge (you will know it when you see it). It is near a large mosque. There is a restaurant on the second floor of the buildings overlooking the square called "Hamdi". Go there for a traditional Turkish meal. Tell them you want a typical meal. You won't be disappointed. Also, visit the Blue mosque in Istanbul. I highly recommend Kusadasai as well. From there you will be able to visit Ephasus and the Virgin Mary's home. You will love Turkey. Enjoy your trip!

I think you should find more info on the tours that your country offers to people going to Turkey. Its great if your a first timer. And you dont have to worry about accomodation or whether they are ripping you off as your tour guide will be their to assist you. And if you like somewhere you can alwayz go back after the tour has ended. Thats what i did and i loved it..
Places id recommend: Bodrum, Fethiye, Cesme, Kalkan....

2 weeks is purely too short a era in case you wanna pass to the full of India. Theer are innumerable places of pastime interior the rustic, Be it the seashores and templeas in South-India, Monuments in eastern India, Hill stations, seashores and metropolitians of west India, or hill station of the North, that is going to take you atleast a pair of months to verify the full u . s .. i might reccomend you pass to the north Indian places like Amritsar, Delhi, Kulu-Manali, Jammu & Kashmir.
