This sprawling harbor town is the busiest in the Gallipoli region, and is easily the most frequented stopover for individuals visiting the historical and mythological memorial sites. Çanakkale is the best base from which to visit the site of ancient Troy and the Gallipoli battlefield, but it is also a great place to enjoy.  The city has an exceptional concentration of dining and nightlife in its centre, and a sweeping vibrant waterfront during the summer months.
