The Turkish Experience: A Journey of Discovery

In traditional Botswana, a Setswana maxim states:

“Go tsamaya ke go bona (the experiences associated with travelling are immense and can be a good or bad omen),”
especially when encountering Turkish culture.

Travelling to Istanbul, a city that straddles Europe and Asia, exposes one to the realities of life. This enchanting city is a treasure trove of exquisiteness, history, and culture, with stunning architectural splendour, vibrant markets, and breath-taking natural scenery.

As noted by Mmegi Staffer Ryder Gabathuse, Istanbul is a unique blend of past and present, creating a captivating atmosphere that will leave you enthralled and inspired. A recent journey to Turkey's most populous city, at the invitation of the Turkish government, revealed the city's charm during the fifth Turkey-Africa Business and Economic Forum (TABEF), where Botswana made its inaugural participation.

Istanbul is indeed a major urban centre, offering a wealth of experiences for visitors.
