Istanbul.

There are many things to see and do in Istanbul. Known as the city of a thousand and one nights or of the seven hills.

However, all the names are few to describe this fantastic city, located between Asia and Europe, which perfectly mixes traditions and the culture of the East with the modernity of the West.

The best way to enjoy Istanbul is to get lost in crowded neighborhoods. Look for a bargain in one of its markets, such as the Grand Bazaar or the Spices Bazaar.

Then, go up to the viewpoints of the Galata Tower or the Pierre Loti Cafe. Get to the Church of San Salvador de Chora, visit the Topkapi Palace, take a cruise on the Bosphorus or try the delicious Turkish cuisine, among many other things.

 

Undoubtedly, Istanbul is one of the most important places to visit in Turkey and the entry and exit point for a self-guided or organized tour of the rest of the country’s wonders.

 

Get enlightened with the Blue Mosque.

The so-called Blue Mosque, the Sultanahmet Camii Mosque, is the most important mosque in Istanbul. It has 6 minarets, plus a beautiful colossal dome.

 

Upon entering, you can understand why it is called the Blue Mosque: more than 20 thousand blue tiles adorn the mosque’s dome.

Inside are huge stained glass windows and stunning chandelier pendants, all of which make it even more magnificent.

 

Without a doubt, it is worth seeing both from the outside. From the inside, even at night, it looks lovely, all lit up.

 

Cappadocia Obligatory Destination in Turkey.
