Turkey is a beautiful country filled with culture, architecture and fabulous resorts. One location you cannot miss on your Turkey holidays a trip to Turkey is Istanbul – a city filled with food, atmosphere, architecture and plenty to do! One of your first stops whilst in Istanbul has to be the Grand Bazaar; an area with thousands of shops spread across dozens of streets that ooze a certain historic ambience and makes the city come alive. Whilst strolling around Istanbul, be sure to wander through the Çiçek Pasajı (Flower Passage) as it is truly one of the city’s most beautiful arcades and spots to stop and have a drink or a bite to eat! Foodies will love the restaurant scene in Istanbul and will definitely want to make reservations at Mikla; known to be one of the best restaurants in Turkey and in the world! Those wanting to escape the city for a while will love Belgrad Forest; a 1300 woodland where locals love to walk, cycle and picnic on the weekends! Culture lovers will not be disappointed by a visit to Istanbul – the city is filled with Byzantine and Ottoman architecture such as the beautiful Hagia Sophia that will provide hours of architectural fascination, the amazingly preserved home of the Ottoman sultans- the Topkapı Palace, and the 17th century Blue Mosque. These are all wonders to be marvelled at during your trip to Istanbul!
