伊斯坦堡的现代化相当令人印象深刻。
This tour was booked as from a cruise ship arrival for 10 people. I must say we realy enjoyed we had a great time.
El mercado de las especies en istanbul me volvio loca y repetire el tour privado este año
This is trully a must go please to everybody in the world. It’s so amazing !
Pity they are busy with renovations ….. guess I will have to revisit (and that is not a bad thing!!) We took a slow walk, talked to the cats that were lying idly around, took a couple of pictures and then went for a coffee under the trees.
Hagia Sophia is a much earlier building than the adjoining Blue Mosque, inside there is a huge scaffold and restoration work seems like a permanent fixture. Nevertheless the scale of ambition of the Byzantine builders is breathtaking – this was the largest interior space in a building until comparatively recently. A Must See!
Hagia Sophia… historical mosque and church… the place have different culture, very big place is now museum. St Sophia have a magnicifant and huge dome.
Interested in history? You have to see this, and it is not huge but has very important things on display. It is in the inner grounds of the Topkapi Palace.
匆匆一日游无法看完整个伊斯坦堡。下次再来土耳其时，一定要参加两或三日游，才过瘾。
Thank you very much for the Mystery Tours
