When I was in Turkey many years ago, it was sort of a dry place with no 
wildlife that I could recall. But tons of scenery, which would require wide 
angles.  Unless you're the type to take scenery with 300's I don't know what 
I would use it for. 
Don't miss Cappadocia with the weird houses carved out of sandstone and the 
underground cities that go 7 stories below ground level.near Konya (I don't 
have an atlas handy but 20 year old memories.)  Also further west is Pamukale 
whose pastel terraced pools are 20 times as large as the terraces in 
Yellowstone.
