Towards warmth: TOP-6 locations where you can relax in March

Istanbul, Turkey

Istanbul is a unique city in every way, a bridge between continents and cultures. European refined, but at the same time Asian noisy and chaotic, it leaves no traveler indifferent.

Five days in Istanbul is enough to familiarize yourself with the main sights of the city. At the beginning of March, the temperature is already pleasant, so the weather will be conducive to slow walks. And if you do get cold, you can always warm up with Turkish coffee in any of the cozy local cafes. Gourmets will also definitely appreciate the local cuisine, rich in spices.

Be sure to visit the two most famous mosques in the city: the Blue Mosque and the Süleymaniye, as well as the Topkapi Palace, the former sultan's residence, where you can see how concubines lived in the Harem and enjoy the collection of imperial treasures in the Treasury.

Georgia, Tbilisi

If you are thinking where to go in March, but do not want to spend fabulous sums — pay attention to colorful Georgia and its capital Tbilisi. Inexpensive prices for accommodation, history, which has left its imprint on all the main sights of the city, unreasonable hospitality of Georgians — all this will definitely make your trip unforgettable. In March there are still inexpensive flights to Tbilisi. Later, such prices are already quite difficult to find.

We recommend you to start your acquaintance with Istanbul from the Old Town, where brick medieval buildings breathe antiquity, and winding cobblestone streets twist around the mountains. We also recommend the sulphurous thermal springs where the Abanotubani baths stand.

You should not limit yourself to seeing ancient buildings. For example, the interesting Rustaveli Avenue, where the turning political events of the country of recent years took place. In addition to the building of the Parliament of Georgia, the Opera and Ballet Theater, the National Museum, the Academy of Sciences and other cultural institutions are located here. Of course, no city tour is complete without a visit to local restaurants and cafes.
