Trip to Istambul-Turkey!! +FOTOS and TIPS

in #travel7 years ago (edited)

One of the most spectacular cities and with so much history Istanbul left me with more desire to go again, beautiful and very nice people and their splendid mosques that leave you with your mouth open. If they have not gone I really recommend them is something so unique and magical.

-The Grand Bazaar is the largest bazaar in the city and one of the largest bazaars in the world. Located in the center of the "old city", in the European part of Istanbul between Nuruosmaniye, Mercan and Beyazıt, it has more than 58 streets and 4000 shops.

-The Blue Mosque or Mosque of the Sultan Ahmet Camii is one of the great mosques of Istanbul. It is located in front of the church of Saint Sophia, both separated by a garden, and is the only one in the city that has six minarets.

-Santa Madre Sofia or Hagia Sofia is an old Orthodox patriarchal basilica, later converted into a mosque and now a museum.

Apart from these structures, you should do a boat tour in which they explain the history and culture and take you on the Asian side - as we know Istanbul is on one side on the European continent and on the other by the Asian continent which are joined by 3 transatlantic bridges, one of which is the longest bridge in the world.

The food, the food is unique. They are recognized by their famous tea. The tea is super delicious super sweet! I recommend them with closed eyes

Nice post. Thanks for sharing your experience in İstanbul; I'm glad you liked it!

İstanbul is one of my favourite places in the world. You really should explore all of Turkey though, it's a uniquely diverse country with many different landscapes as well as different cultures and cuisines in each region. I regularly post photos of my trips to different parts of Turkey, but one day I hope to spend one year discovering the entire country in depth.

Anyway, take care,

All the best!
