Uşak is a western Anatolian province celebrated for its millennia-old carpet-weaving tradition, dramatic Ulubey Canyon, and a wealth of Bronze Age tumuli. Sitting at the crossroads of the Aegean and Central Anatolia, it offers a genuine off-the-beaten-path Turkish experience with thermal springs, Roman bridges, and one of Turkey's finest archaeology museums.
Uşak has a semi-arid continental climate with hot, dry summers (June–August) and cold winters (December–February). The city sits at ~920 m elevation, moderating summer heat compared to coastal Aegean cities. Spring and autumn are ideal for outdoor activities.
