A true melting pot of civilizations and a huge metropolis, Istanbul is a city everyone should attempt to visit at least once in their lifetime. It's an amazing conglomeration of contemporary, traditional, Eastern and Western. The historic landmarks, rich cultural life, shopping destinations and delicious food all result in an experience like no other.
Today, I'd simply like to share a small photo story from a trip I took to Istanbul a couple of years ago. In one of my coming blogs, I'll write a much more detailed account for travelers - how to get there, what to see, where to stay in Istanbul and other tips that can make the adventure a lot more fun. For the time being, I hope you do enjoy my Istanbul photo story.
