Mus sits at the foot of the mountains beside one of Turkiye's widest plains, watered by the Murat river. The plain turning to tulips in spring has become the city's emblem, and the district of Malazgirt carries the name of 1071. Turkish Airlines, Pegasus and AJet fly direct from Istanbul, Ankara and Bursa, and the flight from Istanbul takes about 2 hours 5 minutes. Most arrivals are visiting family; for the rest, the plain, the highlands and the Seljuk heritage are all close by.
