4 February 2022

It is one of most people's greatest dreams to travel abroad, at least for once. Many of us have even heard that the people we know have a purpose of traveling the world. Maybe we're among those people. As good as the idea of going to different countries is, unfortunately, the process of going abroad does not go as easily and smoothly as we think. It is a fact that the process of passport and visa takes a lot of time and is tiring, but this does not cause you to postpone your dream abroad and cool off from this idea, because there are countries where you can go using only your ID.

With the political decisions taken between countries, it is now very easy for you to step into other countries without visa barriers. However, your ID needs to comply with the new app, which means you can only enter countries with your chip ID card. Unfortunately, it is not possible to log in with old IDs with photos. For those who want to experience an easier and cheaper foreign experience where passport processing is not a problem, you can find these 5 countries where only ID is sufficient to enter from Turkey.

Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus (TRNC)

The first place where passport and visa processing is not involved and where you can go easily is the Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus, called infant homeland. You can visit the place right next to our country that does not require passports from Turkish citizens without a visa and only with your ID, provided that it is 30 days. You can visit the Museum of Barbarism and the Selimiye Mosque in Lefkoşa, the capital, which is the most popular place on the island with numerous places to visit, and you will have the chance to look at the Othello Tower in Gazimağusa, which is thought to be the site of Othello, one of Shakespeare's most popular plays.

Especially in the summer months, Cyprus features many events and festivals. If you prefer to go in June and July, you can participate in the traditional Güzelyurt Orange Festival in Güzelyurt and enjoy your freshly squeezed orange juice while watching various shows. You can also participate in the International Girne Olive Festival in Girne, one of the most popular places on the island and known as the Pearl of Cyprus. For those who wish to visit the southern part of the island, a visa is required. This is because the region is part of the European Union.
