I chose to talk about the differences and similarities between the Turkish culture and the Lebanese one.

The Turkish and Lebanese culture are very similar. The similarities are that many Lebanese foods originated from Turkey such as Turkish coffee, Shisha and other foods. Also, there are similar words in both languages, and religion. Turkish people look a lot like lebanese people too. Also, both cultures are very close to their families.


The differences are not many. They both have a totally different language and different music.

Recommendation:
I think that cultures are very important and more people should follow them because they help families keep their values.

Although I have lived in Dubai for 18 years, I have decided to base this blogpost on a country that I have only visited once, in order to expand my knowledge and conduct research as to explore the differences and the many similarities that exist between this country and Lebanon. Turkey is a destination that thousands of Lebanese people visit a year due to the short flight and time distance. Also, it is fairly inexpensive, making the demand for tourism there much higher.
