| Turkey is a transcontinental Eurasian country. As a country of transition between the continents of Europe, Asia and Africa, Turkey demonstrates great differences in the topographical aspect. Our country supports a very distinguish flora and fauna, including many endemic species, because of its location, and the diverse landscapes and climatic conditions found in the country. In 1958, Yozgat Camligi National Park was established as the Turkey's first National park. Since then their numbers have increased to 42. Some of these parks, which were initially established for archeological and historical purposes are at the same time rich in different habitats where biological diversity is being protected. The majority of the National parks are found in forest lands and in terms of scenic beauty rich in flora, fauna, and areas of great historical importance, National parks are of great interest to visitors.
