Locations in Turkey

The 120 most notable are above. Every place in Turkey, A to Z, with how many productions each carries:

Set in Turkey, not filmed there

2 more places in Turkey appear on this atlas because a game, an anime or a manga is SET there. Nothing was filmed at them: a drawn or rendered work is filmed nowhere, and some of these places are invented and pinned on what Wikidata says they are based on.

Also shot in Turkey, without a precise location

Wikidata records 45 more productions as shot in Turkey while naming only the country or the state: true, and too coarse to pin, so they are named here rather than dropped or guessed at.

Also named as shot in Turkey by their Wikipedia articles

9 productions name Turkey in their Wikipedia articles as where they were shot, without a place inside it, so they are listed here rather than pinned or dropped.

Productions filmed in Turkey

222 more productions are listed on the pages of the places above.
