Turkey is bordered by eight countries – Bulgaria, Greece, Georgia, Armenia, Azerbaijan, Iran, Iraq and Syria. The extension of Turkey between Europe and Asia, separated by the Sea of Marmara, the Bosphorus and the Dardanelles, has played a significant role in the formation of its special cuisine from ages ago. It is influenced by the Mediterranean Sea and the as well, which offers a wide range of seafood variety. The major type of oil used for cooking comes from the abundant growth of olive trees in the western part of the country.
