I have central asian look and im Turkish i think mostly asian but Since Turks are in Eurasia, they have a wide variety of appearances. Some look more European, some are Asian and some are mixed.

People live in the west part of Turkey act like europeans, if u ask me there is no difrence between western Turks and Greeks, also southwest parts could consider as european culture. İf u go to nort u will see the culture of cascasus russans also nown as Çerkezler(Circassian) if u go to east; ,if u ask me the most remote parts of the Turkey, u will see Georgian culture at norteast, Armanian and Azarbaijani culture at far east, and most likely Arabic and Kurdish culture at southeasth. Also in the middle of the country there is more traditionalist people which means they are more devoted to Islam and the Ottoman Empire. But especially cause Syrian refugees (which they create almost %4 percent of the population) Arabian culture is starting to spread to the whole country.
Fun fact in Kilis(a small southeasth city in Turkey) 98% of the population is Syrians, now i call this invade. Anyways i hope i could be usefull :)
