Luxury on vacation, hardship in living: Diyanet's luxury vacation suggestions draw backlash

Vakur Turizm, the travel agency of the Presidency of Religious Affairs, has drawn attention with its posts on social media accounts. The agency, which offers vacation suggestions with phrases such as "Every trip is a story, every route is a memory," has faced backlash from citizens struggling with economic hardships.

DRAWN BACKLASH ON SOCIAL MEDIA

The vacation suggestions made by the agency have drawn significant backlash on social media. One social media user emphasized the economic difficulties they are facing by saying, "The nation is struggling to make ends meet, our route is the ATM when the salary is deposited," while another commented, "We used to go to the coffeehouse, now buying tea and sitting on a park bench has become a luxury."

SWEDEN VACATION PRICES STUN

The Sweden vacation, which is among the suggestions of Vakur Turizm, has reached levels that are inaccessible for many. A person who wants to take a one-week vacation in Sweden has to spend at least 280 thousand TL, while a vacation for a family of four can go up to 1 million 40 thousand TL. These figures are at a level that is unimaginable for citizens suffering from the cost of living.

On social media, Vakur Turizm's posts include phrases such as "Joining the international tour of your dreams is very easy" and "Would you like to collect unforgettable memories?"
