The city on 2 continents !!!!!

by jlanza29 - last update: Sep 21, 2009

The Hagia Sophia built in the year 450 AD
Consantinople aka... Istanbul...one of the world's true greatest cities.... This unique city sits on the 2 continents of Europe and Asia.... modern yet mid-evil .....all the sites can be done in a matter of 3 days, but to really enjoy it take 5 days...the prices to the tourist sites are a bit steep, but your not gonna come all the way to Turkey and then don't pay to get in !!!!
Bargaining is a must, but the Turkish people are indeed welcoming of foreigners !!!!

This is my 2nd trip to Istanbul...and this time I really enjoyed the weather..a bit cool....and I enjoyed the night life a bit more !!!!

This is a perfect city for a 3 day date with a loved one !!!!

Highly recommend it !!!! A must do on a world traveler's list !!!!!
