Turkey
Turkey's topography is a diverse tapestry of mountains, plateaus, and coastal plains that create a strikingly varied landscape. The country is predominantly characterized by the Anatolian Plateau, a semi-arid highland that stretches across central Turkey, with elevations ranging from 700 to 2,000 meters. This plateau is flanked by the Pontic Mountains to the north and the Taurus Mountains to the south, both of which run parallel to the respective coastlines. In the east, the terrain becomes more rugged and elevated, culminating in Mount Ararat, Turkey's highest peak at 5,137 meters. Coastal regions, such as the Aegean and Mediterranean shores, feature narrow plains that give way to rolling hills and steep mountains, while the Black Sea coast is lined with dense forests and receives the highest precipitation in the country. This complex terrain not only shapes Turkey's diverse climates and ecosystems but also influences human activities, from agriculture in the fertile basins to tourism in the picturesque valleys and mountains.
