When I was in Turkey on summer holydays I didn't changed money for turkish liras. I paid everything in US dollars. Prices were the same either I pay in USD or in euro. So, of course, it was more advantageous to pay in USD. Now I come to Turkey again but this time I want exchange money for turkish lira. But really I don't know what is better - euro or dollars. Seems, like there is almost no difference between rates for euro and dollars? Am I right? Does it mean that to change dollars is more profitable? Please, help me.. I really don't know how to do....Teşekkürler

I don't want to send money to Turkey. I just need to know the exchange rate of euro and usd to turkish liras. Staying in Turkey, what money is better to change - dollars or euro?

Actually. I just checked it is not such a BIG difference when you convert to Turkish Lira - which is strange. Anyway the exchange rate is as follows:-
1 NTL = 0.5153 Euro
1 NTL = 0.6870 USD
and 1 NTL = 0.3475 GBP

I don't understand the point of exchanging to dollars for holiday purposes (unless you're from the US). I always advice anyone I know to have liras because when the rates for foreign currency change shop owners don't change their prices. I know that last summer, you could save 1/3 paying in liras compared to euros.
Also it's Turkey. Yani, lira is the national currency.

That is exactly what I was talking about!!!!The difference is so small and it is really strange. Neither dollars, nor euro is not my native currency. Anyway, I need to change. And in my country difference between euro and usd pretty big.In Turkey as far as I can see it is not like that. Does it mean that changing euro in Turkey I will lose?
