About this place
Uşak sits in Turkey's Central Aegean region, far enough inland that its climate feels more Anatolian than coastal. This sizable city blends a compact historic core with a lively student atmosphere, thanks to its university. While the old town and its museum of Lydian treasures draw visitors into the center, the real adventure lies in the surrounding countryside, where deep canyons, Roman ruins, and ancient bridges reward those with a sense of exploration.

Planning Tips
- Rent a car for exploring — Many of the best attractions, from Ulubey Canyon to Blaundus, are scattered and require driving on dirt roads.
- Confirm airport transfers — Commercial flights don't use Uşak's local airport; commercial flights arrive at Zafer Airport or Izmir, requiring a shuttle or long drive.
- Park in side alleys — Street parking on main thoroughfares is chaotic despite signs, so navigating into the smaller side streets is more practical.
- Try the local tarhana — Taste the tradition at İsmet Paşa Caddesi restaurants, sampling a fermented, dried, and powdered soup that's a local delicacy.
