Did You Say Shopping? :)

Hi everybody! How about shopping Istanbul? Everyone I know that visits Turkey, tell me that they love shopping over there. One of my favorite places in Istanbul is called “Akmerkez.” I love shopping in there, because I can find all the good quality stuff in the mall, and there are so many beautiful restaurants inside that I like to go and eat or have coffee with friends or family.  The mall is very big, and everything is very modern. They always design the mall for the new season inside and outside, and it looks gorgeous and shiny at night, so you would not miss this place for sure if you pass by. On the other hand, there is a new mall that is built like two years ago, and this place is definitely my new favorite place to go shopping. It is called “Istinye Park.” I love going there, because the place is very good quality. You can find all the good brands and everything that you look for.  Inside the mall, the first floor is the modern Turkish bazaar and the other floors are full of different types of stores and cafeterias. You should not miss these places if you look for good shopping in Istanbul! :)

BOSPHORUS - DAY AND NIGHT

Hi everyone! This time, I would like to talk about Bosphorus in the day and the night. Bosphorus is my favorite part of Istanbul. If you visited Istanbul, and you did not see the Bosphorus, ooops! Then that means that you really missed the best part of Istanbul for sure. When you are in the Bosphorus during the day, it is very possible that you would see a lot of people fishing near the sea. You would see some people selling cooked corn, which are delicious and very popular in Istanbul. One of the best things you can do in Istanbul is to take a tour in the Bosphorus with a boat. It is totally a beautiful feeling. There are people in the boat that sell bagels, and I love throwing piece of bagels to the seagulls, because they are all around. I feel that it is so romantic and so much fun! I love seagulls and the noise they make. It feels very refreshing. On the other hand, all the restaurants near the Bosphorus have amazing view that you see other side of the city, and they are all great. There are clubs near the Bosphorus as well, and they are very big and so much fun at night. Bosphorus is the first place in my mind that I miss for sure!

SUADA - UNIQUE ISLAND IN THE MIDDLE OF THE BOSPHORUS

Hi everyone! In this post, I would like to introduce you one of my favorite restaurants in Istanbul. This place is Istanbul’s unique island that is called Suada. It is an island in the middle of the Bosphorus, and the two continents, which are Europe and Asia. Doesn’t it sound very cool? You take a nice boat ride to go there, which takes around two minutes or so. The place is very modern. The island consists of two different restaurants and a beach club. Both of the restaurants have amazing foods and amazing view. On the other hand, the place is perfect if you are looking for a good and fun time in Istanbul during the summer time, because you can go to the beach club in the island with your family or friends to relax and enjoy your day drinking and eating inside or around the pool. Sometimes, people do private concerts, fashion shows, different parties and weddings in the island. This place is definitely very unique and glamorous. I was there this summer for a fashion show and dinner, and I had a great time with my friends. Hope you can go and visit there one day! It would be one of your unforgettable experiences in Istanbul.
