One Day In Istanbul - Grand Bazaar

Hello everyone! Let’s start off with the historical places to go as a tourist in Istanbul. Have you ever heard of the Grand Bazaar? If you would ask me of what to do or where to go in Istanbul as a tourist, then I would definitely suggest you to visit there. The Grand Bazaar is very popular all around the world, and that place is definitely so much fun to shop! The bazaar consists of thousands of shops, it is very big and that place is the first place that tourists like to choose when they visit Istanbul. When you are in the bazaar, you can find all cultural, artistic things of the Turkish culture, such as Turkish carpets, accessorizes, antiques, pipes, hookahs, and all sorts of other things. Also, there are many nice, cultural restaurants in and around there that you can try, and it is so much fun to go there at night for dinner, because while you eat, violin players come around you and they start to sing Turkish songs, and make you happy. All the foods are delicious of course. Imagine a day that you are shopping in the day, getting to know Turkish culture, and eating in a nice restaurant, where they play with violins and sing you Turkish songs! Fun, isn’t it? That would be one of your plans if you ever like to visit Istanbul one day. I miss Istanbul already! :)

Introducing Istanbul to Everyone!

Hi everyone! Firstly I would like to introduce myself to you! My name is Eda, and I am from Turkey, Istanbul. I moved to Miami seven years ago, but I always go back and forth to my country for vacation every year, and enjoy every single second of it! I just came back from Istanbul two weeks ago, and I had an amazing time. I would really tell you that if you are a person that loves travelling, you should definitely visit Istanbul one day. I am not telling you that Istanbul is a wonderful city just because I am from there, but honestly if you really happen to travel to Istanbul, you will see what I am really talking about.

Generally, I can tell you that Istanbul is a big city. The population of the city is about 15 million. You can imagine how crowded the city is. Istanbul is a very exotic city, and there are two bridges that connect Asia with Europe. It is very cool that you can have breakfast, lunch or dinner in the Bosphorus, and you can see the other side of the city in front of you. You would love the shopping, eating in exotic places, going around historical places, and the people in the city. It is a different culture, and I hope you will enjoy it with me with my future posts! :)
