Where Should I go: Bodrum or Kitzbuhel?
Bodrum
Bodrum is a city on the Bodrum Peninsula, stretching from Turkey's southwest coast into the Aegean Sea. The city features twin bays with views of Bodrum Castle. This medieval fortress was built partly with stones from the Mausoleum at Halicarnassus, one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World, completed in the 4th century B.C. The city is also a gateway for nearby beach towns and resorts. Although more than a million tourists flock to its beaches, boutique hotels, trendy restaurants, and clubs each summer, the town of Bodrum (ancient Halicarnassus) never seems to lose its cool. More than any other Turkish seaside getaway, it has an enigmatic elegance that pervades it. The evocative castle and the ancient ruins around town also help keep Bodrum a discerning step above the rest.
Kitzbuhel
An internationally renowned ski resort, Kitzbuhel is a part of one of the largest ski regions in Austria. Located about halfway between Innsbruck and Salzburg, the town is surrounded by the Kitzbuhler Alpen, which reach over 2,000 meters. The rugged terrain is a great location for skiing in the winter as well as hiking in the summer.
