Formatting date time application wide

I have an MVC app and I need to use datetime format for Turkey. I have datitime being used all over the place. Is there a way i can do this at one place and it will be formatted.

I remember reading something about Thread CurrentCulture long time ago?

How can i get this done? any ideas?

You can set the culture and UI culture via your web.config, using the globalization element of system.web

You may also consider adding a partial for DateTime in your DisplayTemplates:

You can consider something like below in your Global.asax:

using System.Globalization;

internal void Application_BeginRequest(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    CultureInfo.CurrentCulture = CultureInfo.CreateSpecificCulture("tk-TR");

}

You can set your web application culture settings in you web.config file. For example the following one will use settings based on user's web browser language preferences:

<system.web>
    <globalization uiCulture="auto" culture="auto" />
</system.web>

Alternatively you can set the specific values. List of cultures in .NET
