Who told you this?

Turkey is a safe country for taking a vacation.

The only place where it may be a concern is in the South East, where PKK rebels operate. However there are not many tourist sites in that area.

Some named Mehmet, apparently a Turk is asking if Turkey is a dangerous place! That's funny. Are you from another planet?

No,it isn`t dangerous in Turkey and you Mehmet should know that!

Not at all. It is very safe, much safer than the US.

Totally Blunt

User name Mehmet and the question is a provoking one? There's something fishy here.

If the tourists coming to Turkiye is not dangerous, well, Turkiye is not dangerous place, of course.

LET ME GIVE YOU AN EXAMPLE;

A pervert German teenager raped an English girl in Antalya; but, as you saw in the world media, this event is not shown so much.

As you saw, generally stupid comments comes from ignorant people who doesnt even give any source but only to slander and show his/her enmity...

And the asker of this question is not Turkish, it is Sean, isnt it clear? the first question and a new account...

No,Turkey is one of the safiest places in the world to spend holidays.Of course in some areas the crime level is high just like every country in the world but safier places are much more than the dangerous ones.

Oh puleez, you may not be so bright but at least change your screen name and ask the question again.

It is rather safe compared to other countries but some areas are very prone to crime
