Make the difference between a good trip and an outstanding one !
Every time when I visit Istanbul I go to Sultan Ahmet Mosque to feel an environment of the Muslim mosque. It's a really good organizing of suche a huge number of tourists visit the mosque
I loved the Grand Bazaar! It is so great for strolling, looking and being amazed. BUT there are better prices elsewhere if you are willing to hunt. Still it is worth the trip to be amazed.
I visited the blue mosque twice during my trip to Istanbul, was amazed by the huge size of the dooms, the elephant foot columns and the interior decoration. I was proud to pray the Friday in the Mosque with the great Turkish people.
Anted de aterrizar a istanbul se puwdw ver la inmensidad de la ciudad magico se ve cuando contratas el tour privado
Since everyone seemed to consider the Hagia Sofia a must see, it was one of the first sites I visited when I got to Istanbul. It was impressive, with beautiful architecture – but the scaffolding made it a little harder to appreciate than I would have liked.
Istanbul Archaeology Museum is tucked away behind one of the narrow cobblestone streets near the Topkapi Palace. The museum is actually in two major buildings (as I recall). The sarcophagus of Alexander the Great was incredible with details and color from centuries ago. The tile museum building itself was a beauty unto itself, in addition to the with relics and pottery…
The Topkapi Palace is not only a huge structure, but also laid out so one can see just how the palace was run and the duties of the groups within the palace, and the sociological order of those days.
