The June/July issue of Wanderlust has landed – and it brings exciting news for Turkey. The prestigious travel magazine has included Turkey in its much-anticipated Travel Green List 2025, spotlighting the country as one of the world’s most eco-friendly travel destinations.
Now in its third year, the Travel Green List showcases 50 remarkable destinations and stays that prove travel can be a genuine force for good. From pioneering eco-resorts to entire regions embracing sustainability, these are places that don’t just talk about change – they live it.
Among the highlights in this year’s feature is Mount Nemrut, a UNESCO World Heritage Site in southeastern Turkey, recognised for its monumental sculptures and eco-conscious site management. The magazine gave the site a full-page spread, celebrating it as a powerful symbol of Turkey’s sustainable tourism vision.
The article also praised Turkey’s efforts to preserve its 21 UNESCO World Heritage Sites through forward-thinking, environmentally responsible practices. With a readership spanning Europe, the Americas, Oceania, and Asia, Wanderlust’s recognition reinforces Turkey’s rising profile on the global green tourism stage.
According to Turkey’s Ministry of Culture and Tourism, the listing affirms the country’s international leadership in sustainable travel through strategic initiatives and strong environmental commitments.
As one of the travel industry’s most influential publications, Wanderlust continues to shape the choices of millions of conscious travellers – and Turkey’s inclusion positions it firmly among the world’s top destinations for responsible, meaningful journeys.
