My wife's visa to Turkey?

15 years ago

I'm planning to move to Turkey in 2009 and work in Istanbul for 3-5 years. I am a citizen of Finland. By that time, I am already hoping to be married with my girlfriend who is a Chinese citizen. Will she be granted a residence visa to Turkey by virtue of us being married, or will she need a separate visa and what kind of restrictions apply? We are a bit worried of course, since we are not sure if she can live with me in Turkey while I am working there. Simple tourist visas from China to Turkey seem to entitle to only a very short-term stay.
