Foreign property buyers have been advised to consider investing in the Turkish housing market.
The south-east European country was recommended by Dubai-based news portal 7Days, which said it offered "fantastic" opportunities for property investors.
Turkey was praised for offering a number of tempting attractions, such as scenic coastlines, excellent weather and good value for money.
The website added that Aegean Coastline was a "beautifully rugged" area that combined both modern facilities and attractions with elements of its past.
Furthermore, it said that the local airports ( İzmir, Bodrum ) were the busiest in the whole of Turkey, making the region highly accessible from different parts of the world.
According to a survey carried out by A Place in the Sun magazine, the country is the third most popular foreign market among British property buyers.
