Customs in Turkey


 Personal space 

 

 


 

Personal space tends to be very close

 

It is common to see men hold hands with men.
Women hold hands with women.

 

Women also can be seen with arms around each other’s waists while walking and female friends often hold each other’s hands while talking.

Gesture



Putting your hand to your heart can mean
my friend,
thank you,
nice to meet you.


The "thumbs up" gesture is commonly used for hitchhiking

Shaking your head sideways means, "I don't understand."


If a Turk waves their hand up and down at you, palm towards the ground, they are signaling for you to come.
 


Taboos





1. Kissing in public is not common.






2. It is rude to point at someone



 



3. Smoking without asking permission 







 4. crossing the legs while in the presence of an older or superior person
