While Turkey is a much-loved holiday destination, many places like Bodrum are struggling with the effects of overtourism. It’s a vast country though, with so much more to explore beyond the usual tourist haunts. We’d love to hear about the off-the-beaten-track gems you’ve discovered on your travels, whether it’s a train ride through less-visited rural areas, a small city with lots to offer, or a coastal resort that would welcome more visitors.

If you have a relevant photo, do send it in – but it’s your words that will be judged for the competition.

Keep your tip to about 100 words

The best tip of the week, chosen by Tom Hall of Lonely Planet, will win a £200 voucher to stay at a Coolstays property – the company has more than 3,000 worldwide. The best tips will appear in the Guardian Travel section and website.

We’re sorry, but for legal reasons you must be a UK resident to enter this competition.

The competition closes on Monday 26 August at 9am BST
