Hagia Sophia |
Istanbul is one of the coolest European and Asian cities. i wan to be cool so i travel to Turkey =) It is the only city in the world located in two continents, touching both Europe and Asia. Yet in parts it also has the look of a North African or Middle Eastern city, giving it the distinction of not being defined by any particular continent or region.

While standing at the crossroads of East and West, the city's breathtakingly beautiful landmarks also merge cultures and religions. The famous Hagia Sophia has been a church and a mosque, while remnants of the city's former incarnations as Byzantium and Constantinople are everywhere in this sprawling city.

While history may ooze from every street, Istanbul is a 21st century city mixing exciting contemporary attractions and designer shops with timeless monuments. It is also a modern metropolis with trendy cafes and clubs, which is a fascinating surprise to any visitor.
Grand Bazaar
Spend a morning browsing the Grand Bazaar, and your afternoon in the Blue Mosque followed by a visit to the Istanbul Modern art museum. Then take the opportunity to dine in Asia and party back in Europe until dawn, with the Bosphorus providing picture-postcard views along the way.
