ISTANBUL

Introducing Istanbul The only city in the world that can lay claim to straddling two continents.

Istanbul is one of the world’s great cities, superbly situated either side of the blue ribbon of the Bosphorus Strait separating Europe from Asia.

As if its spectacular geographical location were not enough, it can also boast of being the only city to have played capital to consecutive Christian and Islamic empires, a role that has shaped the region’s history for more than 2500 years and bequeathed to Istanbul a staggering wealth of attractions; from the masterpiece Byzantine church of Hagia Sophia to the formidable city walls, and the domes and minarets of the Ottoman mosques and palaces that dominate the city skyline.

Although no longer its capital, the city remains the vibrant economic, cultural and intellectual heart of modern Turkey. The old quarter, with its oriental-fantasy skyline, and its narrow cobbled streets lined with quaint old wooden houses, lies on a tapering peninsula pointing gravely across the straits to Asia. To the south, the blue waters of the Sea of Marmara glitter invitingly. North, across the graceful curve of the Golden Horn, flicker the bright lights of the pulsating entertainment quarter of Beyoğlu.

July and August see locals decamp en masse to rural retreats and Aegean/Mediterranean resorts.

The upside of this is that there is less bustle and public transport is less crowded. The evening warmth also allows you to enjoy a drink at a trendy roof-top bar, dine at a Bosphorus-front fish restaurant or puff contentedly on a nargile (water pipe) in a courtyard garden in the shadow of an Ottoman mosque. September and October’s generally clear, sunny days provide the ideal weather to explore in the best possible way - on foot - but it is still plenty warm enough to eat outside, take a Bosphorus Cruise or even swim in the Sea of Marmara from one of the pretty Princes’ Islands.

A go-ahead, bustling city, Istanbul comes alive at night. A great place to start is along the Bosphorus, where the city’s most flamboyant nightclubs live, including Sortie, Supperclub and probably the city’s best, Reina where Istanbul’s great and good come to dance the night away (the super-flash avoid the traffic of the coastal road and arrive at the club by boat). Many of Istanbul’s clubs are open-air, which is great in the summer thanks to spectacular views and cooling breezes, plus most offer good food.

ISTANBUL Istanbul’s position on an ancient trade route between East and West means that its inhabitants are merchants - and shoppers - to their core.

The chic boutiques, vintage and “concept” stores of modern Istanbul give London and Paris a run for their money in terms of inventiveness and edge; and there are plenty of designer malls and streets to keep the label-hungry happy. However no trip to Istanbul is complete without a visit to the world famous Grand Bazaar, (Kapalı Çarşı). Built in the 15th century, it is the oldest covered market on earth, covering an area of over 54,000 square meters.

5 Reasons To Visit Istanbul 1. Change Continent Spend the morning in Europe and the afternoon in Asia, with just a ferry ride in between; how cosmopolitan is that?

2. Cruise the Bosphorus Taking a boat ride up the strait, past scenic waterfront neighborhoods and forested slopes topped with fortresses, is quintessentially Istanbul.

3. Haggle in the Bazaars Bargain like the locals do as you make your way through the Grand Bazaar and Spice Bazaar - it may be a bit touristy, but it’s fun.

4. Marvel at Ancient Domes From the stunning Hagia Sophia to the graceful Süleymaniye Mosque, the city’s greatest works of imperial architecture never cease to impress, especially from the inside as you look up.

5. Ogle at Opulence With their sumptuous decor and fascinating harem quarters, the Topkapı and Dolmabahçe palaces offer a glimpse of the splendor of the Ottoman Empire.

It is also one of the world’s biggest covered markets with nearly 4000 shops, 56 streets and vaulted passageways and more than 250.000 visitors a day. It is nothing like a regular shopping mall, with no such thing as window-shopping. Be prepared to interact with hundreds of cajoling shop owners. If you know how to bargain like a Turk, you can make excellent deals for authentic leather items, carpets, gold, silver or souvenirs; just like the locals do.

8

When all is said and done, probably the greatest asset of this unforgettable city are its people, who have an infectious love of life and generosity of spirit. This vibrant, inclusive and expanding community work and party hard, treasure family and friendships, and have no problem melding tradition and modernity in their everyday lives. Joining them in their favourite haunts – çay bahcesis (tea gardens), kahvehanı (coffee houses), meyhanes (Turkish taverns) and kebapçıs (kebab restaurants) – will be a highlight of your visit.
