Before moving on to tell you some practical information (currency, weather, Visa, phones or important addresses, etc.) here are several post more specific information about what to see in Istanbul, ydonde what to eat and how to get around there. And we show many, many photos! What we see in Istanbul do a tour of the essential visits: best of Istanbul city (formerly Byzantium and Constantinople) to Istanbul could divide into three zones historic area, to the South of the Horn of gold Santa Sofia, Topkapi Palace, mosques, Grand Bazaar, market the neighborhood species of GALATASARAY, with one of the best views of the city and North of the Golden Horn: those of the Galata Tower. Asian, part to this, perhaps the biggest surprise (for well) of our trip.

TO eat typical Turks which you will find by street vendors in Istanbul meals drinks that you have to try before returning home a couple of restaurants that we recommend our travel how to get around Istanbul information about transportation in the city and now yes, a series of practical data.
